What is the solution to this system of equations?

Mathematics

mixas84 [53]3 years ago

Answer:

(-2,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is the point at which the two lines intersect, (-2,4).  That point is the only one that satisfies (works) in both equations:

y = x + 6

4 = -2 + 6

and

y = -0.5x + 3

4 = -0.5(-2) + 3

4 = 1 + 3

====

You can also solve it algebraically:

y = x + 6

y = -0.5x + 3

-0.5x + 3 = x + 6   [Use the value of y from the second equation in the first equation]

-1.5x = 3

x = -2

Use this is y = -2 + 6:

y = 4

(-2,4)

What is the y intercept of f(x)=(1/2)*
9966 [12]

Answer:

B. (0,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept of the equation f(x) = 1/2x lies on the y-axis.

This means we need to set x = 0 and solve for y

1/2(0) = 0

Therefore, (0,0) is the y-intercept of this equation.

The school that Stefan goes to is selling tickets to a choral performance. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 3 se
Afina-wow [57]
Start by writing out the information you know mathematically (I used S for cost of senior ticket, and C for cost of child ticket. You could use X and Y, or any other combination of letters as variables)

3s + 1c=38
3s + 2c=52

Now, you'll want to eliminate one of the variables by subtracting it out. Remember - Same sign, subtract (and therefore different sign, add).

In this case, 3s exists in the first and second equation, so it's very easy to get rid of. They're both positive, so they have the same sign (+). Same sign, subtract.
3s + 1c=38
-(3s + 2c=52)
__________
0 -1c= -14
-c=-14
C=14

Now, plug c=14 into either of the original equations.

3s + C= 38
3s + 14=38
3s=24
S=8.

So, a child ticket costs $14 and a senior ticket costs $8.
