Answer:2
26x + y = 23 → y = 23 – 6x.
7x + y = 25 → 7x + (23 – 6x) = 25 → x + 23 = 25 → x = 2
Find the measure of y.
is 3x+4y=12 linear or nonlinear......is y=1/2x+6 linear or nonlinear......is y=4x to the power of 2 linear or nonlinear......is y+2=|4| linear or nonlinear......is y+6=4x linear or nonlinear......
3x+4y=12 is Linear.
y-1/2x+6 is Linear.
y=4x^2 is nonlinear.
y+2=|4| is linear.
y+6=4x is linear.
In order to tell whether an equation is linear or not, you have to first see if there is any variable^2 or more than ^1. If that is the case, it isn't linear. For example the equation x^2=4 or y^5=100 isn't linear. It also isn't linear if the equation is divided by X or Y.For example the equation 1/x=1 isn't linear or 1/y^2=5 isn't linear.
A question is also linear if you can write it in the form y=mx+b , 'm' meaning the slope of the equation and 'b' meaning the y-intercept of the equation.
Graph the equation y = 4/5x - 1
Answer: The answer is the picture shown below
Step-by-step explanation:
To do this you will need to make a coordinate plane about 20 up and 20 down. So there is a formula that is y=mx+b which is called the slope intercept form and as you can see the problem given to you was already given in this formula. The variable m in the equation is the slope and slope is also known as rise (which basically means go up if positive and down if negative) over run (which is right if positive and left if negative) and as you can see in the equation the number 4/5 is the variable m. Since slope is rise over run 4 would be the rise and 5 would be the run, so you would go up 4 and right 5 because they are both positive. Now there is another variable that is b which would be the -1. In slope intercept formula b is the y intercept so -1 is where the line would cross the y axis. Now that you know all the parts to the slope you can put it together giving you the answer.
Answer:
In the attachment.Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]y=\dfrac{4}{5}x-1[/tex]
This is an equation for a line in the slope-intercept form.
For the straight line we only need two points on the coordinate plane.
Choose two x values. Place them in the equation and calculate the y values.
For x = 0:
[tex]y=\dfrac{4}{5}(0)-1=0-1=-1\to(0,\ -1)[/tex]
For x = 5:
[tex]y=\dfrac{4}{5}(5)-1=4-1=3\to(5;\ 3)[/tex]
Mark points on the coordinate plane and draw a line through these points.

Jordan weighs twice as much as
Sam. Togcther, they weigh 180
pounds. How much do each of
them weigh?
Answer:
Jordan weighs 120 pounds, Sam weighs 60 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
We can create an equation 2s=J. Our second equation is S+J=180. We can substitute J for 2s and our new equation will be 3s=180. We can divide 3 from both sides and we get s= 60. And we know that Jordan weighs two times as sam, then Jordan weighs 120 pounds.
Answer: Jordan=120. Sam=60
Step-by-step explanation: Together they weigh 180 pounds Jordan weighs twice as much as sam. We can write their values as Sam=x and Jordan=2x then we can make a equation
2x+x=180
3x=180
x=60
Then we can substitute x in Jordan and sams values to get our final answe;
Jordan=120. Sam=60

Which of the following equations have exactly one solution? Choose all answers that apply: A.6x-15=6x+15 B.6x-6=6x+15 C.6x+15=6x+15 D.6x-6=15x+15
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
In every other solution, x gets canceled out, so it has no impact on the equation. Thus, A, B, and C all have either infinite or no solution, because they have 6x on both sides of the equation.
Further proof:
6x-6=15x+15
Add(6)
6x=15x+21
Subtract(15x)
-9x=21
Divide(-9)
x = -2 3/9
Hope it helps <3
Answer:
d) 6x - 6 = 15x + 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Well let’s solve.
a)
6x - 15 = 6x + 15
Lets use the communicative property which is the moving of numbers.
We can start with -15, so we do +15,
6x = 6x + 30
Then we can do -6x
0 = 30
This is a false statement meaning there is no solution.
b)
6x - 6 = 6x + 15
We can start by doing +6
6x = 6x + 21
-6x
0 = 21
Again, this is a false statement meaning this has no solutions.
c)
6x + 15 = 6x + 15
So we do -15
6x = 6x
If this is the case then there is infinitely many solutions.
d)
6x - 6 = 15x + 15
So we can start by doing +5p6
6x = 15x + 21
Then we can do -15x
-9x = 21
then we can do 21 / -9 which is -2 1/3.
x = -2 1/3
So this has one solution.

Which are the roots of the quadratic function f(q) = q? - 125? Select two options.
Oq=515
Oq=-575
Oq=3/5
Oq=-375
Oq=25/5
Answer:
A and C
Step-by-step explanation:
The roots of the quadratic function f(q) = q² - 125 are q = 5 and q = -5.
What is a function?A function has an input and an output.
A function can be one-to-one or onto one.
It simply indicated the relationships between the input and the output.
Example:
f(x) = 2x + 1
f(1) = 2 + 1 = 3
f(2) = 2 x 2 + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5
The outputs of the functions are 3 and 5
The inputs of the function are 1 and 2.
We have,
The quadratic function f(q) = q² - 125 can be factored as (q - 5)(q + 5).
Now,
To find the roots, we set the function equal to zero and solve for q:
So,
q² - 125 = 0
(q - 5)(q + 5) = 0
q - 5 = 0 or q + 5 = 0
q = 5 or q = -5
Therefore,
The roots of the quadratic function f(q) = q² - 125 are q = 5 and q = -5.

A quadrilateral has vertices at $(0,1)$, $(3,4)$, $(4,3)$ and $(3,0)$. Its perimeter can be expressed in the form $a\sqrt2+b\sqrt{10}$ with $a$ and $b$ integers. What is the sum of $a$ and $b$?
Answer:
a + b = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Quadrilateral;
Vertices of (0,1), (3,4) (4,3) and (3,0)
[tex]Perimeter = a\sqrt{2} + b\sqrt{10}[/tex]
Required
[tex]a + b[/tex]
Let the vertices be represented with A,B,C,D such as
A = (0,1); B = (3,4); C = (4,3) and D = (3,0)
To calculate the actual perimeter, we need to first calculate the distance between the points;
Such that:
AB represents distance between point A and B
BC represents distance between point B and C
CD represents distance between point C and D
DA represents distance between point D and A
Calculating AB
Here, we consider A = (0,1); B = (3,4);
Distance is calculated as;
[tex]Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}[/tex]
[tex](x_1,y_1) = A(0,1)[/tex]
[tex](x_2,y_2) = B(3,4)[/tex]
Substitute these values in the formula above
[tex]Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}[/tex]
[tex]AB = \sqrt{(0 - 3)^2 + (1 - 4)^2}[/tex]
[tex]AB = \sqrt{( - 3)^2 + (-3)^2}[/tex]
[tex]AB = \sqrt{9+ 9}[/tex]
[tex]AB = \sqrt{18}[/tex]
[tex]AB = \sqrt{9*2}[/tex]
[tex]AB = \sqrt{9}*\sqrt{2}[/tex]
[tex]AB = 3\sqrt{2}[/tex]
Calculating BC
Here, we consider B = (3,4); C = (4,3)
Here,
[tex](x_1,y_1) = B (3,4)[/tex]
[tex](x_2,y_2) = C(4,3)[/tex]
Substitute these values in the formula above
[tex]Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}[/tex]
[tex]BC = \sqrt{(3 - 4)^2 + (4 - 3)^2}[/tex]
[tex]BC = \sqrt{(-1)^2 + (1)^2}[/tex]
[tex]BC = \sqrt{1 + 1}[/tex]
[tex]BC = \sqrt{2}[/tex]
Calculating CD
Here, we consider C = (4,3); D = (3,0)
Here,
[tex](x_1,y_1) = C(4,3)[/tex]
[tex](x_2,y_2) = D (3,0)[/tex]
Substitute these values in the formula above
[tex]Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}[/tex]
[tex]CD = \sqrt{(4 - 3)^2 + (3 - 0)^2}[/tex]
[tex]CD = \sqrt{(1)^2 + (3)^2}[/tex]
[tex]CD = \sqrt{1 + 9}[/tex]
[tex]CD = \sqrt{10}[/tex]
Lastly;
Calculating DA
Here, we consider C = (4,3); D = (3,0)
Here,
[tex](x_1,y_1) = D (3,0)[/tex]
[tex](x_2,y_2) = A (0,1)[/tex]
Substitute these values in the formula above
[tex]Distance = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}[/tex]
[tex]DA = \sqrt{(3 - 0)^2 + (0 - 1)^2}[/tex]
[tex]DA = \sqrt{(3)^2 + (- 1)^2}[/tex]
[tex]DA = \sqrt{9 + 1}[/tex]
[tex]DA = \sqrt{10}[/tex]
The addition of the values of distances AB, BC, CD and DA gives the perimeter of the quadrilateral
[tex]Perimeter = 3\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{2} + \sqrt{10} + \sqrt{10}[/tex]
[tex]Perimeter = 4\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{10}[/tex]
Recall that
[tex]Perimeter = a\sqrt{2} + b\sqrt{10}[/tex]
This implies that
[tex]a\sqrt{2} + b\sqrt{10} = 4\sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{10}[/tex]
By comparison
[tex]a\sqrt{2} = 4\sqrt{2}[/tex]
Divide both sides by [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]
[tex]a = 4[/tex]
By comparison
[tex]b\sqrt{10} = 2\sqrt{10}[/tex]
Divide both sides by [tex]\sqrt{10}[/tex]
[tex]b = 2[/tex]
Hence,
a + b = 2 + 10
a + b = 12
Answer:
a+b=6
Step-by-step explanation:
The tutor verified answer is mostly correct however, if you look under both by comperision sections you will see that it is:
[tex]4\sqrt{2}[/tex] and [tex]2\sqrt{10}[/tex] thus the answer is 4+2=6
What is the function rule represented by the following table? x y 0 0 1 -2 -2 4 y = -x - 1 y = -2x y = x - 3 y = -3x + 2
Answer:
[tex]y = -2x[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x || 0 || 1 || -2
y || 0 || -2 || 4
Required
Determine the function rule
First, we have to determine the slope of the function using;
[tex]m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1 - x_2}[/tex]
Where x and y represent any two corresponding values of x and y
When x = 0; y = 0 [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex]
When x = 1; y = -2 [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]
Substitute these values in [tex]m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1 - x_2}[/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{0 - (-2)}{0 - 1}[/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{0 +2}{0 - 1}[/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{2}{- 1}[/tex]
[tex]m = -2[/tex]
Next, is to determine the function rule; using slope intercept form as follows;
[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]
Take any corresponding values of x and y as x1 and x2
When x = -2; y = 4
[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex] becomes
[tex]y - 4 = -2(x - (-2))[/tex]
[tex]y - 4 = -2(x + 2)[/tex]
Open the bracket
[tex]y - 4 = -2x -4[/tex]
Add 4 to both sides
[tex]y - 4 + 4 = -2x - 4 + 4[/tex]
[tex]y = -2x[/tex]
Hence, the function rule is [tex]y = -2x[/tex]

What is Polynomial? What are exponents? What is the general equation of a straight line? A polynomial is defined as an expression which is composed of variables, constants and exponents, that are combined using mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.An exponent is a number that is placed as a superscript over a number. In other words, it indicates that the base is raised to a certain power. Tis expression means that -[tex]b^x = \underbrace{b \times \dots \times b}_{x \text{ times}}[/tex]
The general equation of a straight line is : y = mx + cwhere : [m] → is slope of line and [c] → is the y - intercept
We have the following function -
f(x) = x³ - 9
The average rate of change would be -
r = {720 - (- 36)}/{9 - (- 3)}
r = 756/12
r = 63

plssssss help number 18 and 20
Answer:
18).Total mass of materials = 4.8kg
For gravel
55% of the materials are gravel
So we have
55/100 × 4.8 kg
= 2.64kg
For sand
30% of the materials are sand
We have
30/100 × 4.8
= 1.44kg
For cement
The remaining materials were cement so we add the masses of both the sand and gravel and subtract it from the total mass
That's

Step-by-step explanation:
1)of 4.8kg concrete 55% is gravel,30% is sand and 15% is cement.
percent=Rate*Base
Pgravel=55%*4.8kg
Pgravel=2.64kg
Psand=30%*4.8kg
Psand=1.44kg
Pcement=15%*4.8kg
Pcement=0.72kg
2)percent=Rate*Base
percent=7.5%*£800
percent=60£
total earn=60£ + £800
total earn=£860
For what values of a the following expressions are true: |a|=−a
Answer:
Any negative number and 0 works for the expression.
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at this type of equation, we know that either EVERY negative number and 0 or EVERY positive number and 0 will work for this equation, since nothing is being added and we're just working with absolutes/negatives.
Let's try a random positive number in the expression
[tex]|6| = -(6)\\6 \neq -6[/tex]
So this positive number doesn't work, let's just test with another one.
[tex]|9| = -(9)\\9 \neq -9[/tex]
So we know that positive numbers won't work with this expression.
Let's test 0 quickly, just to make sure.
[tex]|0| = -0\\0 = 0[/tex]
So 0 works.
Let's try a few negative numbers now.
[tex]|-5| = -(-5)\\5 = 5[/tex]
So yes, this does work. Let's try one more negative number.
[tex]|-120| = -(-120)\\120 = 120[/tex]
This works. So, every negative number and 0 work with this equation.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
|a|=−a is true only if a is negative or zero
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that absolute values are always 0 or positive.
|a|=−a is true only if a is negative or zero.
