Which ordered pair (a, b) is the solution to the given system?
2a-5b=1
3a+5b=14
(1, 3)
(3, 1)
(29/5,15)
15,29/5
Answer:
2a - 5b = 1
3a + 5b = 14
Let's solve this system using elimination. Add the equations together to cancel the b-terms, then solve for a.
2a - 5b = 1
3a + 5b = 14
+___________
5a - 0 = 15
5a = 15
a = 3
Next, plug 3 for a into either of the equations and solve for b.
2a - 5b = 1
2(3) - 5b = 1
6 - 5b = 1
- 5b = -5
b = 1
Lastly, check all work by plugging both values for their respective variables.
2a - 5b = 1
2(3) - 5(1) = 1
6 - 5 = 1 -- This is true
3a + 5b = 14
3(3) + 5(1) = 14
9 + 5 = 14 -- This is true
The solution to the system of equations is (3, 1).

Two mechanics worked on a car. The first mechanic charged $75 per hour, and the second mechanic charged $45 per hour. The mechanics worked for a
combined total of 25 hours, and together they charged a total of $1425. How long did each mechanic work?
Answer:
First mechanic 10 hours, Second is 15 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 25, so y = 25 - x
75x + 45y = 1425
Substitute in the first equation
75x + 45(25 - x) = 1425
75x + 1125 - 45x = 1425
30x = 300
x = 10
Therefore, y = 15
Answer:
they both worked

: West Gorham High School is to be located at the population center of gravity of three communities: Westbrook, population 16,000; Scarborough, population 22,000; and Gorham, population 36,500. Westbrook is located at 43.6769˚N, 70.3717˚W; Scarborough is located at 43.5781˚N, 70.3222˚W; and Gorham is located at 43.6795˚N, 70.4447˚W.
a. Where should West Gorham High School be located?
b. If only two pieces of adequate land are available for sale: Baker’s Field at 43.6784˚N, 70.3827˚W; or L onesome Acres at 43.5119˚N, 70.3856˚W, using rectilinear distances, which is closer to the site located in part (a)?
Answer:
(a) 43.6490°N, 70.3928°W
(b) Baker's Field
Step-by-step explanation:
The locations are all within a 7-mile square, so we will make the assumption of a flat Earth with parallel longitude lines. Then the "central" location will be the weighted average of the latitude and longitude coordinates.
(a)Total population is 16000 +22000 +36500 = 74,500. For purposes of the arithmetic, we will subtract 43 from latitude and 70 from longitude, then multiply each fraction by 10. Similarly, we will divide each population by 1000.
The weighted average location is found from ...
(16/74.5)(6.769, 3.717) +(22/74.5)(5.781, 3.222) +(36.5/74.5)(6.795, 4.447)
= (1.4537, 0.7983) +(1.7071, 0.9515) +(3.3291, 2.1787) = (6.490, 3.928)
The center of gravity is about 43.6490°N, 70.3928°W.
__
(b)The coordinate differences from the center of gravity are (in (°lat, °long)) ...
Baker's Field: (0.0294, -0.0101)
Lonesome Acres: (-0.1371, -.0072)
Clearly, Baker's field is closer to the site of part (a).
_____
Additional comment
Distance calculations could be refined further by considering that a degree of longitude at this latitude represents about 0.72 times the distance of a degree of latitude. In this problem, the location of Lonesome Acres has a latitude difference that is several times any of the other coordinate differences, so it is clearly much farther away from the desired location.
The calculations done here are a sort of first-level approximation. The least-significant digits in the coordinates represent a distance of less than 50 feet. If you really want accuracy to that level, then the (approximately) spherical shape of the Earth needs to be accounted for. As a second-level approximation, some reference point needs to be identified, and coordinates in miles (or feet) need to be expressed in relation to that reference. The best accuracy would be obtained using spherical trigonometry to identify the distances.
We expect any school that is constructed to be somewhat larger than 50 feet in any direction, so accuracy to the 4th decimal place in these locations is probably not required--except to satisfy some answer-checker.

Howie wants to get a car loan with 4% simple interest rate. If the car costs $25,000, how much would Howie need to pay back at the end of one year, including the interest?
The amount Howie will pay back at the end of one year is $26000.00
The given parameters are:
[tex]P =25000[/tex] -- the principal amount
[tex]R = 4\%[/tex] -- the interest rate
[tex]T=1[/tex] --- the duration
The amount to pay back in this duration is then calculated using:
[tex]A = P(1 + RT)[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]A = 25000(1 + 4\% \times 1)[/tex]
[tex]A = 25000(1 + 4\% )[/tex]
Express percentage as decimal
[tex]A = 25000(1 + 0.04)[/tex]
[tex]A = 25000(1 .04)\\[/tex]
Multiply
[tex]A = 26000[/tex]
Hence, the amount to pay back is $26000.00

3 out of 25 cookies are oatmeal . What percent of oatmeal are not oatmeal
Answer:
88%
Step-by-step explanation:
You can do this pretty easily because percent is just decimals where the decimal is moved 2 units to the right.
Since the base is 25, and 3 of them are oatmeal, you can multiply by 4/4 to get a base of 100, to make this a lot easier.
3 / 25 = x / 100
3 x 4 = 12
12/100 are oatmeal.
Since you don't want the oatmeal, you subtract 100 by 12 to find the remaining of 88.
Answer:
88%
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 25-3=22 not oatmeal
2) proportion: 22/25 = x/100
cross multiply and divide
22x100 = 2200
2200/25 = 88
88%
It is desired to pile some logs in layers so that the top layer contains one log, the next layer contains two logs, the next layer contains three logs, and so on; each layer containing one more log than the layer on top of it. There are 190 logs. Can all the log be used in such a grouping, and if so, how many logs are in the bottom layer?
Answer:
Yes all of the logs can be used in such a grouping.
We'll have 19 logs in the bottom row (and have 19 rows)
========================================================
Explanation:
Let n be the number of layers. Let T(n) represent how many logs there are total.
If you have 1 layer, then you have 1 log. So we can say that T(1) = 1.If there are n = 2 layers, then we have 1 log on top of two other logs, which leads to 1+2 = 3 logs total. This shows that T(2) = 3.If there are n = 3 layers, then we have 1 log on top of 2 which are on top of 3 at the very bottom. We have 1+2+3 = 6 logs total. So T(3) = 6.Having n = 4 layers gives 1+2+3+4 = 10 logs. So T(4) = 10Having n = 5 layers gives 1+2+3+4+5 = 15 logs. So T(5) = 15This process continues for however long you like. The sequence 1,3,6,10,15 is the set of triangular numbers, since the logs form a triangular or pyramid shape when stacked this way. To get the nth value in the triangular number sequence, use this formula
T(n) = 0.5*n*(n+1)
---------------
For example, let's say we wanted to find how many logs there were in the fifth layer
T(n) = 0.5*n*(n+1)
T(5) = 0.5*5*(5+1)
T(5) = 15
This matches from earlier.
The purpose of bringing in a formula is to see if we can get T(n) = 190 for some integer n.
-------------------
T(n) = 0.5*n*(n+1)
190 = 0.5*n*(n+1)
190*2 = n(n+1)
380 = n^2+n
0 = n^2+n-380
n^2+n-180 = 0
Applying the quadratic formula will lead to the two solutions: n = -20 and n = 19. We ignore the negative value of n as we can't have a negative number of rows. Therefore, n = 19 is the only valid solution here.
If we wanted to stack 190 logs in this triangular pyramid fashion, then we'll need to have 19 rows. The bottom row will have 19 logs.
----------
Check:
1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10 = 55
11+12+13+14+15+16+17+18+19 = 135
55+135 = 190
Or you could say,
T(n) = 0.5*n*(n+1)
T(19) = 0.5*19*(19+1)
T(19) = 190
Either way, the answer is confirmed.

h(r) = r^2 + 11r - 26
1) What are the zeros of the function?
Write the smaller r first, and the larger r second.
smaller s =
larger r =
2) What is the vertex of the parabola?
The zeros of the function h(r) = r² + 11r - 26 are r = -13, r = 2 and the vertex is (-11/2, -225/4).
What are the zeros and vertex of the function?Given the function in the question:
h(r) = r² + 11r - 26
To find the zeros of the function h(r) = r² + 11r - 26, we need to solve the equation h(r) = 0.
Using factoring:
r² + 11r - 26 = 0
Find two numbers whose sum is 11 and whose product is -26.
The numbers are -2 and 13.
Factor the equation:
(r - 2)(r + 13) = 0
Hence:
r - 2 = 0 and r + 13 = 0
Therefore, smaller r = -13, larger r = 2.
Next, we determine the vertex of the function:
Using the formula for the x-coordinate of the vertex, which is given -b/2a.
Here, the coefficient of r² is 1 (a = 1),
The coefficient of r is 11 (b = 11).
Substituting these values into the formula, we get:
r = -b/2a
= -11/( 2×1 )
= -11/2
The x-coordinate of the vertex is -11/2.
To find the y-coordinate, we can substitute r = -11/2 value back into the function:
h(r) = r² + 11r - 26
h(-11/2) = (-11/2)² + 11(-11/2) - 26
= 121/4 - 121/2 - 26
= 121/4 - 242/4 - 104/4
= (121 - 242 - 104)/4
= -225/4
Therefore, the vertex is (-11/2, -225/4).
