Consider the following pair of equations:

y = −2x + 8
y = x − 1

Explain how you will solve the pair of equations by substitution. Show all the steps and write the solution in (x, y) form.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x + 8

y = x-1

Substitute x-1 for y in the equation y = -2x + 8.  x-1 = -2x + 8

Use the Additive Property to move the

constant terms to one side of the equation.      x-1 = -2x + 8

                                                                                +1           +1

                                                                                  x = -2x + 9

Now do the same to the variable terms.              +2x +2x

                                                                                 3x = 9

Divide both sides of the equation by the

constant in the variable term.                               ÷3 = ÷3

                                                                                   x = 3

To find y, simply substitute the value of x into

one of the original equations.                                 y = x-1

                                                                                   y = 3-1

Solve:                                                                         y = 2

The solution is (3, 2).

The cost of the hiking trip this year is 2/3of the cost of last year's trip. This year's trip cost $32

1. Write an equation that represents the cost of last years trip.
2.What was the cost of last year's trip

Answers

Answer:

The equation is ( 32/2 ) × 3 = 48.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the answer, we must find one third of last years trip. To do this, we can simply divide the cost of this year's trip by two, 32/2=16.

Now if we multiply this years trip by 3, 16×3=48, we can see that the total cost of last years trip was $48.

If we'd like to turn this into a equation, it looks like this:

( 32/2 ) × 3 = 48.

Solve for x, 2-x= -6-4x
a . -2/3
b.-2/5
c-8/3
d.-8/5​

Answers

Answer:

-8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

2 - x = - 6 - 4x      <-- Add 4x to the left side

2 + 3x = - 6          <-- Subtract 2 from the left side

3x = -8             <-- Divide 3 on both sides

x = -8/3

Answer:

x = -8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Consolidate x terms on the right side:

2-x= -6-4x becomes 2-x + x = -6-4x + x, which in turn becomes:

2 = -6 - 3x, or 3x = -8.  Then, dividing both sides by 3, we get x = -8/3

One gallon of gasoline in Buffalo, New York costs $2.29. In Toronto, Canada, one liter of gasoline costs $0.91. There are 3.8 liters in one gallon.

Answer the questions below.

1. How much does one gallon of gas cost in Toronto? Round your answer to the nearest cent.



2. Is the cost of gas greater in Buffalo or in Toronto?



3. How much greater?

Answers

Answer:

The cost of one gallon of gas in Toronto, Canada is $3.458.

Solution:

Given, One gallon of gasoline in buffalo, New York costs $2.29.  

In Toronto, Canada, one liter of gas costs $0.91.  

There are 3.8 liters in one gallon.  

We have to find how much does one gallon of gas cost in Toronto?

Now, cost of one gallon of gas in Toronto = cost of one litre of gas in Toronto x 3.8 liters for 1 gallon.

Cost of one gallon of gas = 0.91 x 3.8 = 3.458

Hence, the cost of one gallon of gas in Toronto, Canada is $3.458.

Answers

Given:

The graph of a trend line.

To find:

The equation of the trend line.

Solution:

From the given graph it is clear that the trend line passes through the points (0,4) and (9,7). So, the equation of the trend line is:

[tex]y-y_1=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)[/tex]

[tex]y-4=\dfrac{7-4}{9-0}(x-0)[/tex]

[tex]y-4=\dfrac{3}{9}(x)[/tex]

[tex]y=\dfrac{1}{3}x+4[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the trend line is [tex]y=\dfrac{1}{3}x+4[/tex].

find the equation that represents the proportional relationship in this graph

Answers

Answer:

y = 4/5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Points on the graph: (5, 4) and (0, 0)

Slope:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(0-4)/(0-5)

m=(-4)/(-5)

m= 4/5

Slope-intercept:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 4 = 4/5(x - 5)

y - 4 = 4/5x - 4

y = 4/5x

Loren is running in a long distance race. She is able to keep a steady pace of 10 feet per second.

Answers

Answer:

a or c Im not sure

Step-by-step explanation:

I think b though

The line which represents the speed as 10 feet per second is line B thus none of the given options are correct.

What is a graph?

A graph is a diametrical representation of any function between the dependent and independent variables.

For example y = x² form a parabola now by looking at only the graph we can predict that it has only a positive value irrespective of the interval of x.

As per the given,

Loren is running at speed of 10 feet per second.

Speed = distance covered/time taken

10 = distance covered/time taken

In line B, the ratio of distance covered/time taken is 10.

Thus, line B will be correct.

Hence "The line which represents the speed as 10 feet per second is line B thus none of the given options are correct".
