Remarks.

This can be solved as a proportion. A proportion is 2 ratios making a total of 4 parts. If we know 3 of the parts, we can solve for the 4th.

63/(8x - 2) = 49 /42

Notice that the given parts of the top triangle are the numerators of the ratios. The 2 parts of the bottom triangle are the denominators of the proportions

Proportion

63/(8x - 2) = 49 /42

Solution

63/(8x - 2) = 49 /42                        Cross Multiply

(8x - 2)*49 = 63 * 42                       Combine the right.

(8x - 2)*49 = 2646                           Divide by 49

8x - 2 = 54                                        Add 2 to both sides

8x -2+2=54+2                                   Combine

8x = 56                                              Divide by 8

8x/8 = 56/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Move the decimal so there is one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point. The number of decimal places you move will be the exponent on the 10.

If the decimal is being moved to the right, the exponent will be negative. If the decimal is being moved to the left, the exponent will be positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

the circumference for the circle is 23 yd.

Step-by-step explanation:

a square has 4 identical sides.

so, when you have to "walk" around the perimeter of a square you have to go 4 times the same distance.

therefore

20 = 4×side length

side length = 20/4 = 5 in

it is a 5 in × 5 in square.

FYI a rectangle has 2 pairs of sides that are equally long inside their pair.

and so you have in this case a perimeter of

2×6 + 2×4 = 12 + 8 = 20 in

Answer:

x = 45, y = 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the 2 numbers are x and y:

x + y = 69...........(1)

x = 2y - 3

x - 2y = -3...........(2)

Subtract: (1) - (2):

x - x + y - (-2y) = 69 - (-3)

y + 2y = 72

3y = 72

y = 24.

From equation 1:-

x + 24 = 69

x = 45.

Answer:

one number would be 63 and the other would be 6

Step-by-step explanation:

69/2=34.5

it says 3 less which means minus 3, so you would:

34.5-3=31.5

then it says twice the smaller number, so you would:

31.5*2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

(3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Setting up equation so we can use substitution method

x - y = 1 , x + 3y = 9

step 1 set first equation equal to x by adding y to both sides so we can use the substitution method to solve the system of equations.

x = y + 1 , x + 3y = 9

now we can plug in ( or substitute hence substitution method ) the first equation into the second

Solving for y using the substitution method

x + 3y = 9

plug in x = y + 1

y + 1 + 3y = 9

combine like terms

4y + 1 = 9

subtract 1 from both sides

4y = 8

divide both sides by 4

y = 2

Now to find the value of x we plug in the value of y into one of the equations and solve for x.

Solving for x

x - y = 1

y = 2

x - 2 = 1

add 2 to both sides

x = 3

The solution would be (3,2)

Answer:

x = 3 and y = 2 or (3,2) in coordinate form

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{\begin{cases} x-y=1 \\ x+3y=9 \end{cases}}[/tex]

Solve by elimination of x-terms by multiplying either one of equations with -1:

For this, I choose to multiply -1 in first equation:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{\begin{cases} -1(x-y=1) \\ x+3y=9 \end{cases}}\\\displaystyle \large{\begin{cases} -x+y=-1 \\ x+3y=9 \end{cases}}[/tex]

Then add both equations:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{-x+x+y+3y=-1+9}\\\displaystyle \large{4y=8}[/tex]

Divide both sides:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{\dfrac{4y}{4} = \dfrac{8}{4}}\\\displaystyle \large{y=2}[/tex]

Next, substitute y = 2 in one of equations to solve for x:

For this, I choose to substitute y = 2 in the first equation:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{x-y=1}[/tex]

Substitute y = 2 in:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{x-2=1}[/tex]

Add both sides by 2:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{x-2+2=1+2}\\\displaystyle \large{x=3}[/tex]

Hence, the solution is x = 3 and y = 2 or you can write as in coordinate form (3,2)

__________________________________________________________

First method is elimination method, I’ll demonstrate another method which is by using matrices to find the solutions.

Given:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{\begin{cases} x-y=1 \\ x+3y=9 \end{cases}}[/tex]

Write the system of equations in matrices form:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-1\\1&3\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1\\9\end{array}\right]}[/tex]

Let:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-1\\1&3\end{array}\right] }\\\displaystyle \large{X=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\end{array}\right] \\\displaystyle \large{B = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1\\9\end{array}\right] }[/tex]

From [tex]\displaystyle \large{AX=B \to X=A^{-1}B}[/tex] where:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{A^{-1}=\dfrac{1}{\det A} \left[\begin{array}{ccc}d&-b\\-c&a\end{array}\right] = \dfrac{1}{ad-bc} \left[\begin{array}{ccc}d&-b\\-c&a\end{array}\right] }[/tex]

Find [tex]\displaystyle \large{\det A}[/tex]:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{\det A = ad-bc = 3+1=4}[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{A^{-1} = \dfrac{1}{4}\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&1\\-1&1\end{array}\right]}\\\therefore \displaystyle \large{X = \dfrac{1}{4}\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&1\\-1&1\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1\\9\end{array}\right]}[/tex]

Evaluate the matrices:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{X= \dfrac{1}{4}\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3(1)+1(9)\\-1(1)+1(9)\end{array}\right] }\\\displaystyle \large{X= \dfrac{1}{4}\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3+9\\-1+9\end{array}\right] }\\\displaystyle \large{X= \dfrac{1}{4}\left[\begin{array}{ccc}12\\8\end{array}\right]}\\\displaystyle \large{X= \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3\\2\end{array}\right] }\\\therefore \displaystyle \large{\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3\\2\end{array}\right]}[/tex]

Therefore, the solution is x = 3 and y = 2

Answer:

The universal set contains all possible elements in the set

The sets are given as:

Where the universal set is:

U = {all integers}

The set B is the set of all even integers.

So, its complement would be the set of all odd integers i.e. set D

Hence, the complement of set B is the set D.

From the set definition, we have:

C = {x | x ∈ U and 2x is an odd integer}

This means that the set C contains elements 2x, where 2x is an odd number.

The element x is an integer, and twice an integer (i.e. 2x) is an even number.

This means that 2x cannot be an odd number;

Hence, the empty set is the set C;

The subset E = {1, 3, 5, 7} contains odd integers.

From the set definition, set D represents the set of odd integers

Hence, the set D contains the subset E = {1, 3, 5, 7}

Answer:

  82 2/9 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement gives us two relations between length and width. We can write those using equations and the variables L and W for length and widh, in meters.

  P = 2(L +W) . . . . . . formula for the perimeter of a rectangle

  38 = 2(L +W) . . . . . the perimeter is 38 meters

  (L -3) = 2(W -2) . . . . length less 3 is twice the difference of wdith and 2.

__

Dividing the first equation by 2 gives ...

  19 = L +W

Solving this for L gives ...

  L = 19 -W

Substituting for L in the second equation, we have ...

  (19 -W) -3 = 2(W -2)

  16 -W = 2W -4 . . . . . . . simplify

  20 = 3W . . . . . . . . . . . add W+4

  W = 20/3 . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

  L = 19 -20/3 = 37/3 . . . . find L from W

__

The area of the farm is the product of length and width:

  A = LW = (37/3 m)(20/3 m) = 740/9 m²

  A = 82 2/9 m²

The area of the farm is 82 2/9 square meters.

Answer:

the point (1, -1) doesn’t  lie on the line (-10x + 5y = -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Generaly , a point A(x₀ , y₀)  lies on the line of equation ax + by = c

If its coordinates verify the equation which means

When we replace x by x₀ and y by y₀ in our equation we get ax₀ + by₀ = c

Then

just replace x by 1 and y by -1 in the equation: -10x + 5y = -8

We get , -10(1) + 5(-1) = -10 - 5 = -15

Since -15 ≠ -8 then (1 , -1) don’t verify the equation

Hence ,  the point (1, -1) doesn’t  lie on the line (-10x + 5y = -8)

Answer:

c= 30

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of c, start by forming an equation using the ∠ sum of ∆ property.

c° +60° +90°= 180° (∠ sum of ∆)

Simplify:

c° + 150°= 180°

c°= 180° -150°

c°= 30°

c= 30

Pyramid height should be 14

Base area should be 14*14(196)

So, Base area is 196

1. Multiply the Base area by the height of the pyramid:

2. Divide the number above by 3:

2744/3=914.7

The function h(t) = -16t^2 + 75 is a quadratic function, and the stick hits the ground at about 2.165 seconds

The function is given as:

h(t) = -16t^2 + 75

Next, we plot the graph of the function h(t)

From the graph of the function h(t) (see attachment), we have the following highlight:

t = -2.165 and t = 2.165 when h(t) = 0

Time cannot be negative.

So, we have:

t = 2.165
