solve using substituion -5x + y = -2 -3x + 6y = -12

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 0y = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x + y = -2………… Equation 1

-3x + 6y = -12 ………… Equation 2

Using substitution

Make y the subject in equation 1 and substitute it into equation 2 and solve for x

That's

y = 5x - 2

We have

- 3x + 6( 5x - 2) = - 12

- 3x + 30x - 12 = - 12

27x = - 12 + 12

27x = 0

Divide both sides by 27

x = 0

Substitute x = 0 into y = 5x - 2

We have

y = 5(0) - 2

y = - 2

So the solutions are

x = 0 y = - 2

Hope this helps you

Answer:

The answer is B. 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

step one:

From the problem state, we can actually conclude that Jamie wants to share the half sheet of cake among her 6 friends

step two:

we can express this problem mathematically as

[tex]=\frac{1}{\frac{2}{6} }[/tex]

we can inverse the denominator and use a multiplication sign instead

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The  value is   [tex]T = 51 \ inches [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

 From the diagram we can obtain the the height of T  as follows

      [tex]T = \frac{60 + 42 }{2}[/tex]

     

Answer:

51 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition of midpoint, 42 through T + T through 60 is congruent to each other.

So, we can add 42+60 together to get the total distance. This is 102.

Next, we divide 102 by 2 because as mentioned since T is the midpoint, each "segment" is exactly 2 halves, they are congruent to each other.

102/2= 51 inches.

What is the 74th term of this arithmetic sequence?
-25, -21, -17, -13,-9, -5,...

Answers

Answer:

267

Step-by-step explanation:

let's say that

f(0)=-25

so in the sequence we are adding 4

so f(1)=-25+4=-21

and f(2)=f(1)+4=-25+4+4=-25 + 4(2)

so if you continue you will notice that

f(n)=-25+4(n)

so our question is

What is the 74th term of this arithmetic sequence?

so if f(0) is our first term, the 74th will be f(73)

so we can apply our formula

f(73)=-25+4(73)

=-25+292

=267

Elaine wants to buy a couch for $899.99 if she pays $69.75 in sales tax what is the sales tax percent explain steps

Answers

Answer:

the sales tax percent is therefore: 7.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

The sales tax she paid is $69.75, for a sofa whose sale price is $899.99.

Since $69.75 is the unknown (x) percent of $899.99, then we write this statement in math terms as:

69.75 = x * 899.99

solving for x we get:

x = 69.75 / 899.99

x = 0.0775

this is the decimal form of the percent, and in order to write it as percent, we multiply it by 100:

the sales tax percent is therefore: 7.75%

The second of two numbers is five more than twice the first. There sum is 80 . Find the numbers.

Answers

The first number = x

The second number = 5 + 2x

80 = x + 5 + 2x

Let's combine like terms.

80 = 3x + 5

Subtract 5 from both sides.

75 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

25 = x

The first number = 25

Let's plug 25 into x for our second number's equation.

The second number = 5 + 2(25) = 55

Answer:

x = first number

y = second number

1. y = 2x +5

2. x = x

3.  x + 2x + 5 = 80

4. 3x +5 = 80

5. 3x = 75  

x = 25

x = 25

y = 2(25) + 5

y = 55

the first number is 25, and the second number is 55.

A wild animal generally stays at least x mi from the edge of a forest. For a rectangular forest preserve that is 2 mi
long and 5 mi wide, write a polynomial that represents the area of the available habitat for the wild animal.
(Note: diagram not drawn to scale)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Area = 4x^2 - 14x + 10[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

See Attachment for Complete Question

Given

[tex]Width = 5mi[/tex] --- For the forest

[tex]Length = 2mi[/tex] -- --- For the forest

Required

Determine the area of the habitat

Since the distance between the animal's habitat is x mi on both sides;

The length and width of the habitat is:

[tex]Width = 5 - (x + x)[/tex]

[tex]Width = 5 - 2x[/tex]

[tex]Height = 2 - (x +x)[/tex]

[tex]Height = 2 - 2x[/tex]

The area is then calculated as follows;

[tex]Area = Width * Height[/tex]

[tex]Area = (5 - 2x) * (2 - 2x)[/tex]

Expand

[tex]Area = 5(2 - 2x) -2x(2 - 2x)[/tex]

Open Brackets

[tex]Area = 10 - 10x - 4x + 4x^2[/tex]

[tex]Area = 10 - 14x + 4x^2[/tex]

Reorder

[tex]Area = 4x^2 - 14x + 10[/tex]

Hence; the required polynomial for the habitat area is:

[tex]Area = 4x^2 - 14x + 10[/tex]

b) On what percent of days was rain​ predicted? nothing​% ​(Round to one decimal place as​ needed.) ​

c) What percent of the time was the forecast​ correct? nothing​% ​(Round to one decimal place as​ needed.)

Answer:

a) the percentage of days it actually rained =  9.6%

b) percentage of days rain was predicted =  24.9%

c) percentage of days forecast was correct =  80.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

First we get the total number of days;

28 + 63 + 7 + 267 = 365 days

a)

days it actually rained = ( 28 + 7 ) = 35

now the percentage of days it actually rained

35/365 × 100 = 9.58% ≈ 9.6%

b)

days rain was predicted = ( 28 + 63 ) = 91

now percentage of days rain was predicted

91/365 × 100 = 24.93% ≈ 24.9%

c)

days forecast was correct =  ( 28 + 267 ) = 295

now percentage of days forecast was correct
