use elimination to solve the system for 4x + 7 y equals -14 + 8 x + 5 y equals 8 for x​

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (x, y) = (3.5, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Elimination is easiest if one of the coefficients of a variable is a multiple of the other coefficient of the variable. Here, we have x-coefficients of 4 and 8, so it will be easiest to eliminate x.

Subtract the second equation from 2 times the first.

  2(4x +7y) -(8x +5y) = 2(-14) -(8)

  9y = -36 . . . . . simplify

  y = -4 . . . . . . . divide by 9

  4x +7(-4) = -14 . . . . substitute for y in the first equation

  4x = 14 . . . . . . . add 28

  x = 3.5 . . . . divide by 4

The solution is (x, y) = (3.5, -4).

Answers

Answer:

Step 1:  Complete the first equation

0.01 is a hundredth, therefore if we have 1.86 then we have 186 hundredths.

Step 2:  Complete the second equation

1.86 / 2 = 0.93

0.01 is a hundredth, therefore if we have 0.93 then we have 93 hundredths.

Step 3:  Complete the third equation

1.86 / 2 = 0.93

How fast was the car going when the driver hit the brakes?
Round your answer to the nearest mile per hour.

mph

Answers

Answer:

Speed of car = 49 mph (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of skid marked = 115 ft

Formula for skid mark = S = √21d

Where d = Length of skid marked

Find:

Speed of car

Computation:

Speed of car = √21d

Speed of car = √21(115)

Speed of car = √2,415

Speed of car = 49.1426

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

D. x = -2y + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 8y = 16

Solve for x

Our objective here is to isolate x ( in other words we want to get x by itself ) using inverse operations.

So let's begin

4x + 8y = 16

First we want to get rid of 8y

Notice how 8y is being added to 4x

Well we can get rid of it by applying it's inverse operation. The opposite of addition is subtraction. So to get rid of 8y we would simply subtract 8y.

Important note! Whatever we do to one side we must do to the other

So we would subtract 8y from both sides

4x + 8y - 8y = 16 - 8y

The 8y on the left hand side cancels out and the 8y on the right side stays as it is as you can't subtract 8y from 16

We then have 4x = 16 - 8y

Next we want to get rid of 4 from 4x.

4x is the same as 4*x which is multiplication

The inverse of multiplication is division so to get rid of the 4 we divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = (16-8y)/4

4x/4 = x

16-8y/4 ( simply divide 16 by 4 and -8y by 4 )

16-8y/4 = 4 - 2y

We're left with x = 4 - 2y which can also be written as x = -2y + 4

Rules for multiplying exponents

Answers

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

When multiplying exponents:

- Product of Powers: When the base of the exponents are the same, and the bases are being multiplied to each other, the exponents are added together.

Example: [tex]a^x + a^y = a^{x+y}[/tex]

- Different bases Same Exponents: When the bases of the exponents are different, but the exponents are the same, the bases multiply together (within a parenthesis) with the exponent on the parenthesis.

Example: [tex]a^x*b^x = (a*b)^x[/tex]

- Quotient of Powers: When the base of the exponents are the same, and they are being divided by each other, the exponents will subtract from each other.

Example: [tex]\frac{a^x}{a^y}= a^{x-y}[/tex]

- Power of a Power: When a base has an exponent, and that entire term has and exponent, the exponents multiply together.

Example: [tex](a^x)^y = a^{x*y}[/tex]

- Power of a Product: The opposite of Different bases Same Exponents. Distribute the exponent onto the different bases.

Example: [tex](ab)^x = a^x*b^x[/tex]

- Power of a Quotient: The opposite of Quotient of Powers. Distribute the exponent to the dividing bases.

Example: [tex](\frac{a}{b} )^x = \frac{a^x}{b^x}[/tex]

- Zero Power: Any number raised to the 0 power equals 1.

Example: [tex]a^0 = 1\\999999^0=1[/tex]

- Negative Exponent: Any number raised by a negative number goes to the denominator of a fraction (if not already in the denominator), and vise versa (goes to the numerator if not already in the numerator).

Example: [tex]a^-2 = \frac{1}{a^2} \\\\\frac{1}{b^-3} = b^3[/tex]

- Power of One: Any number raised to the power of 1 is the same number.

Example: [tex]a^1 = a\\\\999^1 = 999[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean height , μ = 166

Standard deviation, σ = 8

Sample size, n = 1000

Using the Zscore formula :

Zscore = (x - μ) / σ

x = 177

Z = (177 - 166) / 8

Z = 1.375

P(Z > 1.375) = 0.084566(Area to the right of Z)

P(Z > 1.375) * n

0.084566 * 1000 = 84.566 = 85 soldiers

From trigonometry, tan θ = sin θ / cosθ

Given the paired value : (√3/2, 1/2)

Tan θ = sin (1/2) / cos (√3/2)

Tan θ = (1/2 ÷ √3 / 2) = 1 / 2 * 2 / √3 = 2 / 2√3 = 1 / √3

Tan θ = 1 / √3

The Demand function for a product is given by:

D(q) = - 0.0003q^2 - 0.04q + 23.56

where q is the number of units sold and D(q) is the corresponding price per unit, in dollars. What is the average rate of change of Demand between 40 and 175 units sold?

Answers

Answer:

The average rate of change of Demand between 40 and 175 units sold is of -0.1045.

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change:

The average rate of a function f(x) in an interval [a,b] is given by:

[tex]A = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}[/tex]

In this question:

[tex]D(q) = -0.0003q^2 - 0.04q + 23.56[/tex]

What is the average rate of change of Demand between 40 and 175 units sold?

[tex]a = 40, b = 175[/tex]. So

[tex]D(40) = -0.0003*40^2 - 0.04*40 + 23.56 = 21.48[/tex]

[tex]D(175) = -0.0003*175^2 - 0.04*175 + 23.56 = 7.3725[/tex]

So

[tex]A = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a} = \frac{7.3725 - 21.48}{175 - 40} = -0.1045[/tex]

The average rate of change of Demand between 40 and 175 units sold is of -0.1045.

Water is flowing into a tank at a rate of 20 cm3/min. At the start, there is 250 cm3 of water in the tank.
(i) How much water will be in the tank after 30 minutes?
(ii) Find the time when there is 1210 cm3 of water in the tank.

Answers

Answer:

i) 410 cm³

ii) 48 min

Step-by-step explanation:

we start with 250 cm³.

and then we fill in 20 cm³ per minute.

i)

after 30 minutes we have

250 + 8×20 = 250 + 160 = 410 cm³

ii)

how long (how many minutes) does it take to reach 1210 cm³ in the tank ?

well, first we subtract the start amount (250).

and then we see how often 20 cm³ will "fit" into the remainder. and then we know how many minutes the water has to run.

1210 - 250 = 960 cm³

so, the incoming water needs to reach 960 cm³ to have a total of 1210 cm³.

and

960 cm³ / (20 cm³ / min) = 960 cm³ min / 20 cm³ =

= 960 min / 20 = 48 min
