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

Answers

Answer 1

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).

Solve the |4X -5|= |-X +5|

Recall the definition of absolute value:

[tex]|x| = \begin{cases} x & \text{if } x \ge 0 \\ -x & \text{if } x < 0 \end{cases}[/tex]

Then we have a few cases to consider:

• If [tex]4x-5\ge0[/tex] and [tex]-x+5\ge0[/tex], the equation simplifies to

[tex]4x-5 = -x+5 \implies 5x=10 \implies \boxed{x=2}[/tex]

• If [tex]4x-5<0[/tex] and [tex]-x+5\ge0[/tex], we get

[tex]-(4x-5) = -x + 5 \implies -3x = 0 \implies \boxed{x=0}[/tex]

• If [tex]4x-5\ge0[/tex] and [tex]-x+5<0[/tex], then

[tex]4x-5 = -(-x+5) \implies 3x=0 \implies x=0[/tex]

but we already have this solution.

• If [tex]4x-5<0[/tex] and [tex]-x+5<0[/tex], then

[tex]-(4x-5) = -(-x+5) \implies -5x = -10 \implies x=2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for area is r^2 π

where you square the radius and multiply by 3.14 or pi or how many digits you need to use.

For example, on the first question, you multiply the radius (12) by itself or square it to get 144.

Then you multiply 144 by 3.14 to get your first answer.

Hey, I just have one question, what is 8y −5 < 3?

Answers

Answer:

y < 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this inequality, we must isolate the y variable.

First add 5 on both sides of the inequality sign:

Now you have 8y < 8.

Then divide by 8 on both sides, to get y alone:

Now you have y < 1.

Which best explains if qudrillateral WXYZ can be a parallelogram?

Answers

Answer:

  A

Step-by-step explanation:

If the figure is to be a parallelogram, opposite sides must be the same length. This requires ...

  15 = x +8   ⇒   x = 7 . . . . long sides equal length

and ...

  x +2 = 2x -5 . . . . . short sides equal length

  7 = x . . . . . . . . . . add 5-x

The value x=7 will make opposite long sides have lengths 15 mm and opposite short sides have lengths 9 mm.

Figure WXYZ can be a parallelogram with one pair of sides measuring 15 mm and the other pair measuring 9 mm.

You use a garden hose to fill a wading pool. If the water level rises 16 centimeters every 7 minutes
and you record the data point of (21,y), what is the value of y? Use slope to justify your answer.



The rate of change at which the water level rises is ____ centimeters per minute. So solving the equation ____ for y gives a y-value equal to ____

Answers

Rise=16, run=7. Slope is rise/run, and therefore is 16/7. The run is considered to be the x coordinate. Since the x coordinate on the point is 21, we know it has moved 3 exact points away from the origin (21/7=3). We can use this movement of 3 exact points to determine the y coordinate as well. Since the rise (y) is 16 for every exact point on a graph, we know the graph has risen 48 units (16x3=48). So, the point ends up being (21,48). The rate of change is 16cm per 7 minutes, or 2.28cm/minute. The equation is Y=(16/7)X (no y intercept because the graph starts at the origin). The equation gives you the y value of 48 when x is equal to 21.

The interest rate is the 3.7% or 4.2% but you MUST change these to a decimal to use them. So we'll be using .037 and .042 for these calculations. The time part of the equation is the 15 years or the 30 years. See image.

clothing store sells t shirt in only three colors red blue green the colors are in the ratio of 3:4:5 if the store has a total of 60 how many blue t shirt

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

red/blue = 3/4 and you get blue/green = 4/5

= 60/4 = 15

you have 15 red shirts, 20 blue shirts, and 25 green shirts.

15/20 = 3/4

20/25 = 4/5

if you simplify 15/20, you will see that it is equivalent to 3/4

if you simplify 20/25, you will see that it is equivalent to 4/5.


A small tree was planted at a height of 5 feet. The tree has been planted for 16 months, and is now 48.2 feet tall. Which equation
could be used to find x, the average number of feet the tree grew each month?

Answers

Answer:

Use the equation for Average Rate of Change which will give you 2.7 feet per month

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is:

[tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]

Now insert your values:

[tex]\frac{48.2-5}{16-0}[/tex]

The answer is: 2.7 feet per month

Step-by-step explanation:

how much did it grow per month ?

well, it grew from 5 to 48.2 ft in 16 months.

that means it grew 48.2 - 5 = 43.2 ft.

per month that is 43.2/16 = 2.6875 ft per month.

so, the equation would look like

x = (48.2 - 5)/16

If Y varies directly as x and y= 49 when x= 40, find y if x =34

Answers

Answer:

y = 41.65

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y varies directly as x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 49 when x = 40

49 = 40k ( divide both sides by 40 )

[tex]\frac{49}{40}[/tex] = k = 1.225

y = 1.225x ← equation of variation

When x = 34 , then

y = 1.225 × 34 = 41.65
