Answer:(2,0) x=2,y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your system by elimination.

−x+y=−2;2x−3y=4

Multiply the first equation by 2,and multiply the second equation by 1.

2(−x+y=−2)

1(2x−3y=4)

Becomes:

−2x+2y=−4

2x−3y=4

Add these equations to eliminate x:

−y=0

Then solve−y=0 for y:

−y=0

−y/−1 =0/−1

(Divide both sides by -1)

y=0

Now that we've found y let's plug it back in to solve for x.

Write down an original equation:

−x+y=−2

Substitute0foryin−x+y=−2:

−x+0=−2

−x=−2(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−x/−1 = −2/−1

(Divide both sides by -1)

x=2

Create a table of data for two different linear functions. The table should use the same values of x for both functions. Based o

user100 [1]

Answer:

Yes they will intersect

Function 1= F(X)=2X+5

Function 2=H(X)=3X+2

INTERSECT=(3,11)

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we create 2 LINEAR function, i created the function f(x)=2x+5 and the function h(x)=3x+2, both are linear(without a quadratic term). Then

you replace the x for a number:

Table 1 (F(X)=2X+5) Table 2 (H(X)=3X+2)

X=1----->Y=2+5=7 X=1------>Y=3·1+2=5

X=2---->Y=2·2+5=9 X=2----->Y=3·2+2=8

X=3---->Y=3·3+5=11 X=3----->Y=3·3+2=11

With both tables of data we can see that in the X=3/Y=11 point this two linear functions will intersect so the answer is that the two functions will intersect at (3,11)----->(X,Y)

The Mendes family bought a new house 8 years ago $129,000. The new house is now worth $186,000. Assuming a steady rate of growth

USPshnik [31]

So assuming simplet interest

find the change to find the interest
change=186000-129000=57000

simple interest=time times rate times principal
time is in years (8)
rate is in decimal
principal is amount invested (129000)

so
interest is 57000
57000=(8)(r)(129000)
57000=1032000r
divide both sides by 1032000
0.05523255813953488372093023255814=r
or
