Answer:

x = -5
y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

=> -7x - 2y = 25

-4x - 9y = -25

=> 4(-7x - 2y = 25)

7(-4x - 9y = -25)

=> -28x - 8y = 100

-28x - 63y = -175

=> 55y = 275
=> y = 5

Now, let's substitute the value of y into the first equation.

=> -7x - 2y = 25
=> -7x - 2(5) = 25
=> -7x - 10 = 25
=> -7x = 35
=> x = -5

Now, let's check our answer to make sure our answer is correct.

Check:

-4x - 9y = -25
=> -4(-5) - 9(5) = -25
=> 20 - 45 = -25
=> -25 = -25

Hence, this is proved correct.

Hoped this helped.

Joe worked 12 hours and packed 32 cartons. Bob worked 25 hours and packed 64 cartons. Did Joe and Bobwork at the same rate?O YES

Bas_tet [7]

To be able to compare the rates, we will write them in fraction form.

The fraction that represents Joe's rate is:

$\frac{32}{12},$

and the fraction that represents Bob's rate is:

$\frac{64}{25}\text{.}$

Simplifying the above fractions, we get:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{32}{12}=\frac{8}{3}, \\ \frac{64}{25}=\frac{64}{25}\text{.} \end{gathered}$

Since:

$\frac{8}{3}\ne\frac{64}{25}$

then Bob and Joe did not work at the same rate.

Answer:

No, Bob and Joe did not work at the same rate.

Predict what the graph of the following quadratic function will look like. (If you have a graphing calculator, you can use it to

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

u-shaped; y-intercept (0,6); symmetrical with respect to the y-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y = 2x² + 6

The graph would be the shape of that of a parabola. It can be u shaped or n shaped depending on the value of the coefficient of a comparing with the standard equation y = ax² + bx + c. If a > 0, it is u shape and if a < 0, it is n shape.

For this question, since a > 0 it would be u shaped and the intercept can be gotten by putting x = 0.

Therefore y = 0² + 6 = 0

The intercept is at (0,6) and is symmetrical with respect to the y-axis

What does the variable represent in the equation 6-8p=38

GalinKa [24]

Solving the equation $6-8p=38$ we get value of p = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of p in the equation $6-8p=38$

Solving to find value of p:

$6-8p=38\\Adding\,\,-6\,\,on\,\,both\,\,sides:\\6-8p-6=38-6\\-8p=32\\Divide\,\,both\,\,sides\,\,by\,\,-8\\\frac{-8p}{-8}=\frac{32}{-8}\\p=-4$

So, solving the equation $6-8p=38$ we get value of p = -4
