Answer:
the first part of the book has 659 pages and the second part has 723 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to raise 2 equations, one that shows us the relationship between one part of the book and the other, and another equation that shows us that together they give us the total of pages
x = second part
y = first part
x = y + 64
x + y = 1382
As the first equation tells us that x = y + 64 we will replace x in the second equation with (y + 64)
x + y = 1382
(y + 64) + y = 1382
y + y = 1382 - 64
2y = 1318
y = 1318/2
y = 659
now we replace in the first equation to y by its value
x = y + 64
x = 659 + 64
x = 723
so the first part of the book has 659 pages and the second part has 723
Answer: I don’t think there is such a line. A Line that passes through the point (3,-9) must have a positive slope, unlike the line y=-5x-2, which has a negative slope. If a line where to go through (3,-9), is would intersect the line you presented.
Answer:
(x,y)=(-2,-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
y=1/2x-4
y=-2x-9
(y=) 1/2x-4=-2x-9
1/2x +2x=-9+4
1/2x +4/2x=-5
5/2x=-5
5x=-5*2
5x=-10
x=-2
x=-2
y=-2x-9=-2*(-2)-9=4-9=-5
(x,y)=(-2,-5)
