Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + y = - 1 -------------(I)

-5x - 2y = -4 -----------(II)

Multiply the equation (I) by 2 and then add the equations.

(I)*2        8x + 2y = -2

(II)          <u>-5x - 2y = -4</u>  {Now add and y will be eliminated}

             3x         = -6

                       x = -6/3

x = -2

Substitute x = -2 in equation (I)

4*(-2) + y = -1

-8     + y = -1

          y  = - 1 + 8

           y = 7

Answer:

(-2, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + y = -1

-5x - 2y = -4

---------------------------------------

2(4x + y = -1) = 8x + 2y = -2

---------------------------------------

8x + 2y = -2

-5x - 2y = -4

3x = -6

÷3   ÷3

x = -2

-----------------------------------------

4(-2) + y = -1

-8 + y = -1

+8          +8

y = 7

I hope this helps!

Evaluate this expression <br> (-7--9)*(8+2)
Marizza181 [45]
Before we get started, it is good to remember PEMDAS - the acronym that tells you the order to carry out equations.

P = parentheses
E = exponents
M = multiplication
D = division
A = addition
S = subtraction

Knowing this, we should start by doing the equations <em>within </em>each parentheses.
 
(-7 - -9) *(8 + 2)
 (2) *(10)

So we did the addition and subtraction pieces within each group leaving us with the above equation. Now let's multiply:

(2)*(10) = 20

20 is the answer.

Which statement is NOT true about the slope of a straight-line graph?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Option D. Slope is 1 if the line is vertical

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

Part A)  Slope is a measure of the steepness of the line

The statement is true

Because, the steepness of a line is measured by the absolute value of the slope.

Part B) Slope is the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change

The statement is true

Because the formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

so

Is the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change

Part C) Slope is zero if the line is horizontal

The statement is true

Because If the line is horizontal, the y-coordinate of two points is the same

therefore

The vertical change is equal to zero

Part D) Slope is 1 if the line is vertical

The statement is Not true

Because, if the line is vertical the slope is undefined
