Question 17 of 25
You need to solve a system of equations. You decide to use the elimination
method. Which of these is not allowed?
3x-2y=7
3x+4y=17
Equation 1
Equation 2
OA. Subtract equation 2 from equation 1.
OB. Subtract the left side of equation 2 from the left side of equation
1.
OC. Multiply equation 1 by 2. Then add the new equation to equation 2.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The only methods allowed are

-  "Subtract equation 2 from equation 1,"  and "Multiply equation 1 by 2. Then add the new equation to equation 2"

-

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract Eq 2 from Eq 1:

3x-2y=7

-3x-4y=-17

-6y = -10

y = (5/3)

Use y =(5/3) to solve for x in both equations.

x=(31/9)

Subtract the left side of equation 2 from the left side of equation  No, this is not a legal operation.  

Multiply equation 1 by 2. Then add the new equation to equation 2  Yes, this works.  Instead of solving for y first, this method solves for x, which can then be used to find y:

2(3x-2y=7)

  6x-4y=14

  3x+4y=17    

   9x = 31    (y is eliminated)

x = (31/9)

Now use this to find y in either equation:

3x-2y=7

3x-2(31/9)=7

y = (5/3)

Answers

Answer:

The mean will increase more than the median, but both will increase.

[third option listed]

Step-by-step explanation:

the median of a data set is the number in the middle [when listed from lowest to highest in value]

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

is the current median

let's consider what adding 12 would mean--it would mean that we move the median slightly higher [further along in the data set] because there are more numbers (but let's try this out to confirm:)

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 12 13

[if a median placement is shared between two numbers, the mean/average of those two numbers is taken, and that is considered to be the median]

so, 7.5 is the current median

(this is an increase of 0.5)

--

the mean of a data set is what we commonly refer to as the "average"

[you find this value by adding all of the numbers in the data set together and dividing by the number of terms in the data set]

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

mean of original data set:

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 + 11 + 12 + 13 [= 91]

_______________________________________

                                    13

[91 ÷ 13 = 7]

because our number is greater than our original mean [12 > 7], we know that the mean must increase:

[91 + 12 = 103]

[103 ÷ 14 ≈ 9.36]

[we had an increase of 2.36]

so, median increased by 0.5, mean increased by 2.36

so, both values increased, whilst the mean increased by more than the median [as to be expected]

you could also express this as "The mean will increase more than the median, but both will increase." [third option listed]

Which inequality is shown in this graph?
OA. ys-3x+3
OB. y2-3x+3
OC. ys 3x+3
OD. y23x+3

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The line is shaded below, so we can eliminate B and D.

Also, the line has negative slope, so this eliminates C.

The inequality of the graph is y ≤ -3x + 3.

The correct option is A.

What is inequality?

In mathematics, "inequality" refers to a relationship between two expressions or values that are not equal to each other. To solve the inequality, you may multiply or divide each side by the same positive number, add the same amount to each side, take the same amount away from each side, and more. You must flip the inequality sign if you multiply or divide either side by a negative number.

The inequality graph has two points on the line (0, 2) and (2, -3).

And the shaded region of the graph is left to the line made by points (0, 2) and (2, -3).

The line passing through the points (0,2) and (2,-3) can be written in a slope-intercept form as:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The slope of the line is given by:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (-3 - 2) / (2 - 0) = -5/2

The y-intercept can be found by substituting the coordinates of either point into the equation:

y = mx + b

2 = (-5/2)(0) + b

b = 2

So the equation of the line is:

y = (-5/2)x + 2

The shaded region of the graph is to the left of this line. Since the line has a negative slope, any point below the line will satisfy the inequality y ≤ -3x + 3. Therefore, the correct answer is A.

The sides of a rectangle are represented by 4a-1 and 3a + 2. Find the expression for its perimeter.

Answers

Answer:

14a+2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle: P=2(l+w) where l=length and w=width.

So P=2[(4a-1)+(3a+2)]=2(4a-1+3a+2)=2(4a+3a-1+2)=2(7a+1)=14a+2.

The expression to find the perimeter of the rectangle is 14a + 2.

What is Perimeter?

Perimeter of a straight sided figures or objects is the total length of it's boundary.

Given that,

Sides of a rectangle is represented as 4a - 1 and 3a + 2.

Perimeter of a rectangle is represented as,

Perimeter = 2 (l + w)

Here l is the length and w is the width.

Substituting,

Perimeter = 2 (4a - 1 + 3a + 2)

                = 2(7a + 1)

                = 14a + 2

Hence the expression to find the perimeter is 14a + 2.

AC is equal to BC by the corresponding side of a congruent triangle.

What is a line segment?

A line segment is a straight line with finite length, and thus, have to endpoints(points on either ends).

The midpoint of a line segment means a point that lies in the mid of the given line segment.

If D is the midpoint of segment AB, then AD = BD.

So in a triangle ACD and BCD

AD = BD (by midpoint D)

angle ADC = angle BDC = 90

CD = CD (common)

Therefore, triangle ACD and BCD are congruent.

Hence, AC = BC by the corresponding side of a congruent triangle.

Answers

The area of the octagon having an apothem of 6 meters and a side length of 7 meters is 168 meter square

How to the area of an octagon

Using the formula:

Area of an octagon = perimeter * apothem / 2

Note that perimeter of an octagon = 8 a

where a is the length of it's side

Perimeter = 8 * 7

Perimeter = 56 meters

Apothem = 6 meters

Area = 56 * 6/ 2

Area = 336 / 2

Suppose the u.s. government put a 'special 20 percent luxury tax' on the retail price of expensive and fancy yachts in order to collect more taxes from boat owners. assume the price elasticity for these yachts is elastic at 2.50. conclusion: we can probably expect that yacht sales will go down and the government will not collect lots of new tax revenues.

Answers

True. We can probably expect that yacht sales will go down and the government will not collect lots of new tax revenues.

It is given that the US government has put a 20% luxury tax and the price elasticity for these yachts is elastic at 2.50.

Due to the new tax on luxury goods, it can be estimated that the sales of yachts go down as the maximum retail price of the yachts will become more expensive. This can mean that fewer people than before will be able to afford the yachts. Due to fewer sales, the government will not have enough tax revenues.

Answers

The measure of the angle CAD is 40 degrees, the length of ED is 12 units, and the length of AD is 12 units.

What is the similarity law?

It is defined as the law to prove that the two 2-dimensional have the same shape, but it is not compulsory to have the same size. The ratio of the corresponding sides is in the same proportions and the corresponding angles are congruent.

Triangle ABC ~ EDC

Angle ACD = Angle BCE = 90 degree  (vertically opposite angle)

Angle ACB = Angle DCE = 90 degree  (vertically opposite angle)

BE ║ AD

Angle EBC = Angle CDA = 40 degree  (alternative angles)

Triangle ABC ~ Triangle EDC

Angle ABC = Angle CDE

Angle BAC = Angle DEC

∴ AB ║ DE

Triangle ACD ~ Triangle ECB

Angle EBC = Angle CDA and

Angle BEC = Angle CAD

∴ Triangle ACD ~ Triangle ECB

Angle A + Angle E = 180 degree

∠x + 50 + 50 + ∠x = 180

∠x = 40

Angle CAD = 40 degree

We know,

Angle A = Angle E = Angle B = Angle D = 90 degree

So ABCD is a square

AB = ED = 12

AD = AB  = BE = ED = 12

Thus, the measure of the angle CAD is 40 degrees, the length of ED is 12 units, and the Length of AD is 12 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

R × S = 15 could be 5 × 3 = 15, 3 × 5 = 15

                               15 × 1 = 15, 1 × 15 = 15

S ×T =3 From our previous step we can see that S could be 1 or 3 or 5 or 15.

            Given that S×T =3, will make sense that S is 1 or 3

            If S is 1 then T is 3 and if S is 3 then T is 1, so multiplied will give 3.

T×V=7 From previous step we see that T could be 1 or 3.

           Since T×V = 7 it will make sense that T is 1, and therefore V is 7.

T ×V = 7,  S ×T =3, R × S = 15, R × V = ??

1 × 7 = 7,  S ×1 = 3, R × 3 = 15, 5 × 7 = ??

               3 ×1 = 3,  5 × 3 = 15, 5 × 7 = 35
