Solve the simultaneous equations. You must show all your working to find x and y. 1/2x -3y = 9 5x y + y = 28

Answers

Answer 1

The right question is:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}x - 3y = 9[/tex]

[tex]5x + y = 28[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]x = 6[/tex]

[tex]y = -2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\frac{1}{2}x - 3y = 9[/tex]

[tex]5x + y = 28[/tex]

Required

Solve for x and y

Make y the subject of formula in the second equation

[tex]y = 28 - 5x[/tex]

Substitute [tex]y = 28 - 5x[/tex] in the first equation

[tex]\frac{1}{2}x - 3(28 - 5x) = 9[/tex]

Open the bracket

[tex]\frac{1}{2}x - 3*28 - 3*- 5x = 9[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2}x - 84 + 15x = 9[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]\frac{1}{2}x + 15x = 9+ 84[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x}{2} + 15x = 9+ 84[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x+30x}{2} = 93[/tex]

[tex]\frac{31x}{2} = 93[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2

[tex]2 * \frac{31x}{2} = 93 * 2[/tex]

[tex]31x = 186[/tex]

Divide both sides by 31

[tex]\frac{31x}{31} = \frac{186}{31}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{186}{31}[/tex]

[tex]x = 6[/tex]

Recall that [tex]y = 28 - 5x[/tex]

So;

[tex]y = 28 - 5 * 6[/tex]

[tex]y = 28 - 30[/tex]

[tex]y = -2[/tex]

Hence;

[tex]x = 6[/tex] and [tex]y = -2[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

B. 13.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The five-number summary consists of five items which is usually displayed on a box plot, and can be represented in ascending order.

The five-number summary given: 3.5, 12, 19.1, 25.8, 31.8, represents the following in ascending order:

1. The minimum value = 3.5

2. First quartile (Q1) = 12

3. The median = 19.1

4. Third quartile (Q3) = 25.8

5. The maximum value = 31.8

The interquartile range = Q3 - Q1

Therefore, the interquartile range of the data = 25.8 - 12 = 13.8

the correct answer is 13.8 !

Jovie is maintaining a camp fire. She has kept the fire steadily burning for 10 hours with 15 logs. She wants to know how many hours (h)left parenthesis, h, right parenthesis she could have kept the fire going with 9 logs. She assumes all logs are the same.

Answers

Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

10 hours           x hours

-------------- = -------------

15 logs            9 logs

Using cross products

90 = 15x

Divide by 15

90/15 = 15x/15

6 = x

6 hours

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Jovie has maintained the fire burning with 15 logs for 10 hours.

● 15 => 10

Let's find how many hours do 9 logs keep the fire burning.

Let x be that time

● 9 => x

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● 15 => 10

● 9 => x

● 15 * x = 9×10

● 15x = 90

● x = 90/15

● x = 6

So the time that the fire will keep burning is 6 hours.

Can you find x for me?

Answers

Answer:

x = 120 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the angle given is 30 and the four lengths given are equal corresponding the angles opposite to their given sides for the top left triangle and bottom right triangle, the corresponding angles are equal and also 30 degrees.  Since x is where the top left triangle is, we need an equation to relate x.  The sum of all the angles in the top left triangle is 180.  So, x + 30 + 30 = 180.

Therefore,

x = 180-30-30 = 120

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two equal Angels in the triangle so!

X=180°- (30+30)°

=180-60

=120°

!50 POINTS! GIVE REAL ANSWER OR I REPORT PLZ NO TROLLS! An executive drove from his home at an average speed of 35 mph to an airport where a helicopter was waiting. The executive then boarded the helicopter and flew to the corporate offices at an average speed of 78 mph. The entire distance from his home to the office was 169.5 miles. If the executive spent the same amount of time in the car as he did the helicopter, how long did it take the executive to get to work?

Answers

Answer:

it took him 3 hours to get to work

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first part of the trip, the executive covered a distance "d" in time 't" at 35 mph, therefore we can write that the time it took to get to the helicopter was:

[tex]t-\frac{d}{35}[/tex]

which if the distance is in miles, will render the time in hours.

We can write something similar for the second part of the trip", using the same "t" since it took the same time as for the first one, and using for distance 169.5 - d (since it is the distance to complete the total traveled distance :

[tex]t=\frac{169.5-d}{78}[/tex]

Now we equal those two equations because the time "t" is the same, and solve for "d":

[tex]\frac{d}{35} =\frac{169.5-d}{78} \\78\,d=35\,(169.5-d)\\78\,d=5932.5-35\,d\\(78+35)\,d=5932.5\\d=\frac{5932.5}{113} \\d=52.5[/tex]

Now, knowing the distance covered in the first trip, we can find the time of that first trip:

[tex]t=\frac{52.5}{35} =1.5\,\,hours[/tex]

Therefore, the time it took for thye total trip is: 1.5 h + 1.5 h = 3 hours

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=-3x+7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This is asking you to provide the equation is slope-intercept form:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

In this equation, m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept (where the x value is 0).

By looking at the graph, we can find the y-intercept:

[tex]y-intercept=7\\\\m=7[/tex]

To find the slope of the line, you can count how many spaces it takes to go from one point to another. To do this, it's best to find an even point (1,4) and make your way to (0,7).

The slope is represented by [tex]\frac{rise}{run}[/tex] , where the rise is the change in the y-axis and the run is the change in the x-axis.

From (1,4) , move up (rise) as many spaces as it takes to get to the y-axis level of "7", which is 3 spaces. From  here, move to the left (run) as many spaces as it takes to get to the x-axis level of "0", which is 1 space. Since you moved to the left, however, this means that the number will be a negative:

[tex]\frac{rise}{run}=\frac{3}{-1}=-\frac{3}{1}=-3[/tex]

The slope is -3.

Insert the information into the equation:

[tex]y=-3x+7[/tex]

:Done

Answer:

the desired equation is y = -3x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept can be read directly from the graph:  (0, 7).  

Another point on the graph is (2, 1).

As we move from (0, 7) to (2, 1), we see x (the run) increasing by 2 and y (the rise) decreasing by 6.  Thus the slope of this line is m = rise/run = -6/2, or -3.

Start with the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line, which is y = mx + b.

Then 1 = (-3)(2) + b; find b:

1 = -6 + b, or b = 7

Then the desired equation is y = -3x + 7.

Mode. Mode is the most recorded value in a sequence. Mode has the “most” of the same. You are welcome

The required measure for the given case is mode. The correct option is (b).

How to find the mean and median for a given sample of data?

In order to find the mean, first sum all the values of the data and count the number of data then divide them.

In order to find the median, first check whether the number of data is even or odd. For even number, the median is n/2 th element of the sample and for odd number the median is (n + 1)/2 th element.

The given problem deals with a sample of data.

In order find the correct answer, each option is analysed one by one as follows,

(a) The mean of a sample of data represents a standard value for the whole sample such that the individual values of the data may be more or less than it. but, it does not tell about the number of times a value is repeated.

(b)The median of a given sample can tell the middle most value of data when arranged in ascending order.

(c) The mode of a sample is about the times of occurrence of a single value in the whole sample.

As per the given question, to tell about the most frequently brand mode can be used.

O Fewer tickets were sold on the fourth day than on the tenth day.
O More tickets were sold on the fourth day than on the tenth day.

Answers

Answer: The same number of tickets was sold on the fourth day and tenth day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, T(d) is a function that relates the number of tickets sold for a movie to the number of days since the movie was  released.

The average rate of change in a function with respect to the independent variable gives the value of change in a particular period.

If average rate of change in T(d) for the interval d = 4 and d = 10 is  is 0 , that means nothing has been changed in the number of tickets sold on 4th day and 10th day after the film release.

Hence, the correct statement is "The same number of tickets was sold on the fourth day and tenth day."

The correct option is (A).The same number of tickets was sold on the fourth day and tenth day.

Given,

T(d) is a function that relates the number of tickets sold for a movie to the number of days since the movie was released.

The Average rate of change in T(d) for the interval  d = 4 and d = 10 is 0.

We have to find which statement is true.

Since the average rate of change in T(d) for the interval d = 4 and d = 10 is 0, it means nothing has been changed in the number of tickets sold on day 4 and day 10 after the film release.

Hence, the correct statement is The same number of tickets was sold on the fourth day and tenth day.

Thus The correct option is A.

440 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

(D) 440 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the surface area of this complex shape by breaking it down into two smaller shapes:

The base (with side lengths of 10, 10 and 2) and the top (with side lengths of 5, 5, and 8.)

Let's first find the surface area of the base.

The sides of the bass are [tex]10\cdot2 = 20[/tex] in², since there are 4 of these sides, the total side area here is [tex]20\cdot4 = 80[/tex] in².

The bottom of this prism has side lengths of 10 and 10, so [tex]10\cdot10=100[/tex].

There are two of these sides.

[tex]100\cdot2=200[/tex].

Let's add up the side lengths and the base lengths.

[tex]200+80=280[/tex]

We aren't done yet - if we see, the top part is taking away some of that surface area. To find how much it is taking away, we need to find the area of that side.

Note that the side on the base is the exact same as the top, who's side lengths are 5 and 5. So [tex]5\cdot5=25[/tex] in² are being taken away from the base, making it [tex]280-25 = 255[/tex]

Now let's find the surface area of the top.

The side, with lengths of 5 and 8, have a surface area of [tex]5\cdot8=40[/tex] in². Since there are 4 of these sides:

[tex]40\cdot4=160[/tex] in².

Now, the top of the box has side lengths of 5 and 5, so the surface area of that is [tex]5\cdot5 =25[/tex] in².

We don't want to find the area of the bottom of the top prism because that cuts into the base and technically is empty space = no surface area.

Let's add the top and the sides of the top box: [tex]160+25=185[/tex] in².

Finally, let's add the base and the top box surface areas together:

[tex]185 + 255 = 440[/tex]

So the total surface area of this design is 440 in².

Subtract 3y from both sides:

x = -3y - 5

Now, substitute this value for x into the first equation:

2x - y = 11

2(-3y - 5) - y = 11

Distribute:

-6y - 10 - y = 11

Add 10 to both sides:

-6y - y = 21

Combine like terms:

-7y = 21

Divide both sides by -7:

y = -3

Next, substitute this value for x into the second equation:

x + 3y = -5

x + 3(-3) = -5

Multiply:

x - 9 = -5

Add 9 to both sides:

x = 4

Answer:

(7, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - y =11                         2x-y =11

-2(x+3y)= (-5)-2              -2x-6y= 10

Then you will cross out the x, and add.

-7y =21 divide 7

y=-21/7 or y=3

Then you plug in the y where the y is and solve

2x-(3) = 11

2x = 14

x=7

Answer:

X : -6, 3, 15, -12

Y : 11, 5, -3, 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

To find the y values we need to plug the x values into th given equation,

y = -2/3x + 7

-6 ⇒ 11

15 ⇒ -3

Now we have a x value missing to that that we work backwards,

we plug in 15 for y in the given equation,

15 ⇒-12

Hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]y = - \frac{2}{3} x + 7[/tex]

Substituting the values of x into the expression we have

For x = - 6

[tex]y = - \frac{2 }{3} ( - 6) + 7[/tex]

y = 11

For y = 5

Make x the subject

[tex]5 = - \frac{2}{3} x + 7[/tex]

Multiply through by 3

15 = - 2x + 21

-2x = 15 - 21

- 2x = - 6

Divide both sides by - 2

x = 3

For x = 15

[tex]y = - \frac{2}{3} (15) + 7[/tex]

y = - 10 + 7

y = - 3

For y = 15

[tex]15 = - \frac{2}{3} x + 7[/tex]

Multiply through by 3

45 = - 2x + 21

- 2x = 45 - 21

- 2x = 24

Divide both sides by - 2

x = - 12

5 Sandeep bought 30 punnets of strawberries for £20. 1/6 of the punnets were rotten so he threw them away. He sold the remaining punnets for £1.50 each. Work out Sandeep's profit.

Answers

Answer:

£17.50

Step-by-step explanation:

30 punnets /  £20

= 30 / 20

= 1.5

1 punnet costs £1.5

30 strawberries * (1/6 punnets)

= 30 * (1/6)

= 30/6

= 5

5 punnets were rotten.

5 rotten punnets * £1.5

= 5 * 1.5

= 7.5

Sandeep lost £7.5 in profits.

6/6 punnets - 1/6 rotten punnets

= 6/6 - 1/6

= 5/6

5/6 punnets are good

30 punnets * 5/6 good punnets

= 30 * 5/6

= 150/6

= 25

Sandeep has 25 punnets left to sell

25 punnets to sell *  £1.50

= 25 * 1.5

= 37.50

Sandeep will get £37.50 from selling the punnets.  However, you must take into account that he lost £20 when he bought the strawberies.  THat money while be added back with some extra money left over:

£37.50 - £20

= 37.50 - 20

= 17.50

Put all into 1 equation:

{[30 * (5/6)] * 1.50} - 20

= {(150/6) * 1.50} - 20

= {25 * 1.50} - 20

= 37.50 -20

= 17.50

Overall, Sandeep's actual profits are equal to 17.50

I hope this is correct!  Please tell me if the answer or info I gave was wrong!
