Mathematics
1 answer:
kap26 [50]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

X=-1

Y=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+y=-16

3x-y=5

11x=-11

x=-1

8x+y=-16

8(-1)+y=-16

-8+y=-16

y=-16+8

y=-8

<h2><em><u>Or</u></em> </h2>

3x-y=5

3(-1)-y=5

-3-y=5

-y=5+3

-y=8

y=-8

Solve the equation 29 - (x+8) = 6x - 7
max2010maxim [7]
First step you should do is s<span>implify both sides of your equation:
</span>29-(x+8)=6x-7
Distribute the Negative Sign:
29+-1(x+8)=6x-7
29+-1x+(-1)(8)=6x-7
29+-x+-8=6x-7
29+-x+-8=6x+-7
<span>Combine Like Terms:
</span>(-x)+(29+-8)=6x-7
-x+21=6x-7
<span>Subtract 6x from both sides:
</span>-x+21-6x=6x-7-6x
-7x+21=-7
<span>Subtract 21 from both sides:
</span>-7x+21-21=-7-21 
-7x=-28 
<span>Divide both sides by -7:
</span>-7x/-7 = -28/-7
And now your answer should be:
x=4

How do you graph -1/5x-1 and 4/5x-6
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The points for the given to linear equations is (5 , - 2) and (5 , - 1)

The points is plotted on the graph shown .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The two linear equation are

y = \dfrac{-1}{5}x - 1                  ...........1

y = \dfrac{4}{5}x - 6                  ...........2

Now, Solving both the linear equations

Put the value of y from eq 2 into eq 1

I.e  \dfrac{4}{5}x - 6 = \dfrac{-1}{5}x - 1

Or, \dfrac{4}{5}x + \dfrac{1}{5}x  = 6 - 1

Or,  \dfrac{4 + 1}{5}x = 5

or, \dfrac{5}{5}x = 5

∴ x = 5

Now, Put the value of x in eq 1

So, y = \dfrac{-1}{5}x - 1      

Or, y = \dfrac{-1}{5}× 5 - 1              

or,  y = \dfrac{-5}{5} - 1

Or, y = - 1 - 1

I.e y = -2

So, For x = 5 , y = - 2

Point is (x_1 , y_1) = (5 , - 2)

Again , put the value of x in eq 2

So, y = \dfrac{4}{5}x - 6

Or, y = \dfrac{4}{5}× 5 - 6

Or, y = \frac{4\times 5}{5} - 6

Or, y = 4 - 6

I.e y = - 2

So, For x = 5 , y = - 2

Point is (x_2 , y_2) = (5 , - 2)

Hence, The points for the given to linear equations is (5 , - 2) and (5 , - 2)

The points is plotted on the graph shown . Answer

How do I solve for AB? (rounded to the nearest tenth)
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

The answer would be 8.1

Step-by-step explanation:

For the smaller triangle, you use the pythagorean theorem. a squared + b squared = c squared.

To find one of the legs, you do 5 squared - 3 squared = b squared.

25 - 9 = b squared. (BD)

16 = b squared

4 = b

Now for the bigger right triangle. You still use the same tactic.

7 squared + 4 squared = c squared (which is AB)

49 + 16 = c squared

65 = c squared

That means c would equal: square root of 65, which is 8.0622577483 which rounds to 8.1
