Answer:

initial speed: 240 m/h

Step-by-step explanation:

48 m/h is the current speed which is the 20% of X

x (20 / 100) = 48

20x = 4800

x = 4800/20

x = 240 m/h

What is the slope of a line that passes through the origin and the point (-2,1)?

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

<em>The slope would be</em><u><em> -1/2. </em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the midpoint of the segment joining the points P (0, -4) and B (8, 0),

<em> = </em><u><em>( 4, -2 ), </em></u>

Now, the slope of the line passes through the origin and the point ( 4, -2) is,

= <u>-1/2</u>

Use the elimination method to find all solutions of the system:

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

$x = 3$ and $y = 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[Correct Question]

$x^2 - 2y = 1$

$x^2 + 5y = 29$

Required

Solve using elimination

First, we eliminate x.

Subtract equation (1) from (2)

$x^2 - x^2 + 5y - (-2y) = 29 - 1\\$

$5y - (-2y) = 28$

$5y +2y = 28$

$7y = 28$

Divide through ny 7

$y = 4$

Take $x^2 - 2y = 1$

Make x^2 the subject

$x^2 = 1 + 2y$

Substitute 4 for y

$x^2 = 1 + 2*4$

$x^2 = 1 + 8$

$x^2 = 9$

Take square roots

$x = \sqrt 9$

$x = 3$
