Answer:

Solution by graphing: (5, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x - 3  

y = - 3/5x + 5

To solve systems of linear equations graphically, you'll have graph each equation using 2 pairs of points.  

A great starting point is always using its intercepts:

y = x - 3

where the y-intercept is (0, -3).

To find its x-intercept, set y = 0 and solve for the value of x:

y = x - 3

0 = x - 3

Add 3 to both sides:

0 + 3 = x - 3 + 3

3 = x

Therefore, the x-intercept = (3, 0).

y = - 3/5x + 5

where the y-intercept is (0, 5).

Next, you could find a value of x that easily cancels out the fraction given by the slope (m) = -3/5. An input value of x = 5 cancels out the denominator of the slope:

y = - 3/5x + 5

y = - 3/5(5) + 5

y = -3 + 5

y = 2

Therefore, the other point that you could use to plot on the graph is (5, 2).

For y = x - 3, we'll use the line's intercepts: (0, -3) and (3, 0).  

For  y = - 3/5x + 5, we'll use (0, 5) and (5, 2).  

Plotting these points on the graph will give us a solution of (5, 2), as it is the <u>point where both lines intersect</u>. Attached is a screenshot of the graphed lines.

the ratio of peters money to henrys money is 4 : 3 there at first. after perter spent 12 dollars they had an equal amount of mon
MatroZZZ [7]

Using a system of equations, it is found that Peter had $48 at first.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the variables are:

  • Variable x: Peter's money.
  • Variable y: Henry's money.

The ratio of peters money to henrys money is 4 : 3, hence:

\frac{x}{y} = \frac{4}{3}

After Peter spent $12, they had the same amount, hence:

y = x - 12.

Then, replacing in the ratio:

\frac{x}{y} = \frac{4}{3}

\frac{x}{x - 12} = \frac{4}{3}

4(x - 12) = 3x

x = 48.

What is the answer to this question? Write an expression in simplest form for the perimeter of a right triangle with leg lengths
blagie [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the length of both legs of the right angle triangle are given, we would determine the hypotenuse, h by applying Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = one leg² + other leg²

Therefore,

h² = (3a)³ + (4a)³

h² = 27a³ + 64a³

h² = 91a³

Taking square root of both sides,

h = √91a³

The formula for determining the perimeter of a triangle is expressed as

Perimeter = a + b + c

a, b and c are the side length of the triangle. Therefore, the expression for the perimeter of the right angle triangle is

√91a³ + (3a)³ + (4a)³

= √91a³ + 91a³
