Answer:

A. (3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to solve without graphing

equate both equations to each other:

2x - 4 =  - x + 5

add x on both sides:

2x + x - 4 = 5

add 4 on both sides:

2x + x = 5 + 4

collect like terms:

3x = 9

divide 3 on both sides, so

x = 3

now that we have x, go back to any one of the equations and substitute x=3 to find y. I'll use y=2x-4

y = 2x - 4

sub x=3

y = 2(3) - 4

2 × 3 is 6

y = 6 - 4

y = 2

we now have x and y, so the coordinates are (3,2)

If you want to use the graphing method, substitute in x values of your choice, for example -2 to 2 into each equation to find y and when there is a same coordinate in both equations that is the solution.

y = 2x - 4

when x is -2, y = 2(-2)-4 = -8. (-2,-8)

when x is -1, y = 2(-1) - 4= -6. (-1,-6)

when x is 0, y = 2(0)-4 = -4. (0,-4)

when x is 1, y = 2(1) - 4 = -2. (1,-2)

when x is 2, y = 2(2) - 4 = 0. (2,0)

when x is 3, y = 2(3) - 4 = 2. (3,2)

do the same thing of substituting to the other equation

y = -x + 5

when x is -2, y is 7 (-2,7)

when x is -1, y is 6. (-1,6)

when x is 0, y is 5. (0,5)

when x is 1, y is 4. (1,4)

when x is 2, y is 3. (2,3)

when x is 3, y is 2. (3,2)

plot these coordinates on a graph

they both have same x value (3) and same y value (2)

Help me with this question
frosja888 [35]

A linear equation in the form y = mx + c has slope m Any line parallel to 3x + 9y = 5 has the same slope 3x + 9y = 5 → 9y = -3x + 5 → y = (-3/9)x + 5/9 → y = -⅓x + 5/9 & So it’s 10 and 0

Solve the 2x^2 - 5 = 13
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

x=3

x=−3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2 - 5 = 13

Subtract 13 from both sides.

2x^2 - 5 - 13 = 0

Subtract 13 from −5 to get −18.

2x^2 - 18 = 0

Divide both sides by 2.

x^2 - 9 = 0

Consider x^2−9. Rewrite x^2−9 as x^2−3^2. The difference of squares can be factored using the rule: a^2−b^2=(a−b)(a+b).

(x−3)(x+3)=0

To find equation solutions, solve x−3=0 and x+3=0.

x=3

x=−3

84% of Astrid's books are fiction. What fraction of Astrid's books are fiction?
Fed [463]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

\frac{21}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

If 84% are fiction, then the fraction of these are simply the percentage over 100:

\frac{84}{100}

Simplified down by dividing by 4:

\frac{21}{25}
