A Student Is Trying To Solve The System Of Two Equations Given Below:Equation P: X+y=8Equation Q: 2x
Answer 2

Answer:

O -2(x+y=8)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you put the problems beside each other, they look like this;

2x + 5y = 24

  x + y = 8

So you are trying to find a way to simplify the x's

Step 1;

See if there are any numbers that you could multiply to the bottom problem that would help you get rid of the x specifically.

In this case, -2 would cancel out that other 2 right? Because if you added them, they cancel each other out; 2 -2 = 0

Step 2:

if you multiply, you have to do it to the entire problem;

-2(x + y = 8)    (-2 times x, -2 times y, -2 times 8)

-2x + -2y = -16

Step 3:

Go back to your original problem and work it out;

2x + 5y = 24

-2x + -2y = -16

2x and -2x cancel each other out so now you only have;

5y = 24

-2y = -16

Step 4:

Combine like terms;

5y = 24

-2y = -16

3y = 8

Divide by 3

y = 2.6

Answers

The rotation about the origin that is equivalent to R-200° is; C. R160

How to find the angle of rotation?

We are given;

Origin = -200°

Now, even if we add and also subtract a complete rotation of 360° (or even several rotations of 360°), we will want to have the similar rotation.

Thus;

By adding 360° to -200°, we have;

α = -200° + 360°

α = 160°

The lines below are parallel. If the slope of the green line is -3, what is the
slope of the red line?
m =

Answers

Answer:

m=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the lines are parallel to each other, their gradients are equal.

∴ gradient of green line = gradient of red line

∴ m = -3

Solution: slope=-3

Detailed explanation:

This little problem asks us to find the slope of the line. Let's do this!

[tex]\searrow[/tex]

This is what parallel lines look like:

<------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->

<------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->

The two lines above will never intercept each other.

And that's what parallel lines are - they are lines that never intercept.

They can be vertical, horizontal, or diagonal, it doesn't matter. As long as both of them have the same slope and never intercept each other.

So, since parallel lines have identical slopes, the slope of the red line = slope of the green line (the problem provides us that both lines are parallel)

Slope of the red line = -3

Voila! There's our answer!

HELPPP i need to find standard form and general form, please help

Answers

The equation in slope-intercept form is y = 13/8x -17/8 and the equation in standard form is 13x -8y = 17

Equation of a line

A line is the shortest distance between two points. The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is y = mx + b while as a standard notation is Ax+By = C

Given the coordinate points (-3, -7) and (5, 6)

Determine the slope

Slope = 6-(-7)/5-(-3)

Slope = 13/8

For the y-intercept

6 = 13/8(5) + b

6 = 65/8 + b

b = 6 - 65/8

b = -17/8

The equation in slope-intercept form is y = 13/8x -17/8

Write in standard form

Recall y = 13/8x - 17/8

Multiply through by 8

8y = 13x - 17

-13x + 8y = -17

13x -8y = 17

Hence the equation in standard form is 13x -8y = 17

put them both together
find the
perimeter?

Answers

Answer:

58 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

if both shapes are squares, then the perimeter must be divide by all 4 equal sides

36 / 4 = 9, so each side of the first shape is 9 cm

40 / 4 =10 , so each side of the second shape is 10 cm

by putting the shapes together two of the side seal 1 side of each shape but 10-9 is 1 so add all three sides of the rest of the shape,

so 9+ 9+ 9= 27, then the three side of the second shape,

so 10+ 10+ 10= 30, then that extra 1 cm of difference from the size difference when put together,

so 27+ 30+ 1= 58 cm

X^2 - 10x - 20 = 0, which number would have to be added to "complete the square"?

Answers

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

When you're completing the square you're adding (b/2)^2 which in this case is (-5)^2 or 25. This is because when you rewrite it as a square binomial you write it in the form (x+(b/2))^2 which is going to result in x^2+b+(b/2)^2. Since you need to reach 25 you need to add 45 since the last value is at -20.

Answer:

25 to both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

Group x² and x terms
