Solve this system of equations:

3x - 2y = -8
y=3/2x - 2

PLEASE WRITE THE STEPS

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We see that y is equal to 3/2x-2. We can replace the y in the first equation with 3/2x-2 because they are equal and we can solve for x.

3x-2(3/2x-2)=-8

We use the distributive property to undo the parentheses.

3x-3x+4=-8

We combine like terms.

4=-8

We see that since there is no x anymore, there cannot be a solution. We have no x value to solve for the y value either, so there is no solution to this system of equations.

Have a wonderful day! :D

first option

a function is a relation in which an input is paired with exactly one output.

so, let's find the right answer.

in our first option, our inputs are january, february, and march. the outputs are 30, 28, and 25. each input has it's own output. this is correct!

our second option we know is incorrect, because ms. valverade has two outputs, dogs and cats. this is not a function.

our third option is incorrect as well. the yellow square has two ouputs, the square and the triangle.

lastly, in our fourth option, we see the number 7 two times with a different output. therefore, this is not a function.

remember: each input must be paired with only one output!

option c) graph of line going through 1, 4 and 3, 10

step-by-step explanation:

let y equal to margo's coin collection

let x equal to number of years

at the begining x=0, y=1 → point=(x,y)→point=(0,1)

she adds 3 coins per year, then y=1+3x

at x=1, y=1+3(1)=1+3→y=4→point=(x,y)→point=(1,4)

at x=3, y=1+3(3)=1+9→y=10→point=(x,y)→point=(3,10)

the graph of line going through (1, 4) and (3, 10), then the option c is the correct.
