3x + ky = 8
X – 2ky = 5
are simultaneous equations where k is a constant.
a) Show that x = 3.
b) Given that y = 1/2 determine the value of k.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 3x + ky = 8

ky = 8 - 3x

x – 2ky = 5

x - 2(8 - 3x) = 5

x - 16 + 6x = 5

7x = 21

x = 3 (shown)

b) x-2ky = 5

sub x = 3, y = 1/2

3-2k(1/2) = 5

-2k = 2

k = -1

Answers

Answer:

Area of triangle1/2b*h Now you can do

The area of the triangle is 9000 square centimeters

How to determine the area?

Let the sides in order of length be represented as:

x, y and z.

So, we have:

z = 80 + y

z = 130 + x

P = 540

The perimeter is calculated as:

P = x + y + z

So, we have:

x + y + z =540

Substitute z = 130 + x

x + y + 130 + x =540

Evaluate the like terms

2x + y = 410

Substitute z = 130 + x in z = 80 + y

130 + x  = 80 + y

Evaluate the like terms

x - y = -50

So, we have:

2x + y = 410

x - y = -50

Add both equations

3x = 360

Divide by 3

x = 120

Substitute x = 120 in z = 130 + x

z = 130 + 120

z = 250

Substitute z = 250 in z = 80 + y

250 = 80 + y

y = 170

So, we have:

x = 120

y = 170

z = 250

The area is then calculated as:

[tex]Area = \sqrt{s * (s -x) *(s - y) * (s -z)[/tex]

Where

s = P/2 = 540/2

s = 270

So, we have:

[tex]Area = \sqrt{270 * (270 -120) *(270 - 170) * (270 -250)[/tex]

Evaluate

Area = 9000

Hence, the area of the triangle is 9000 square centimeters

Write the exponential function for each table of values. Remember the function y = a(b)*
Help me please!!!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is really simple once you get the hang of it. Promise. Remember this:

IF YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO CHOOSE A POINT FROM THE TABLE WHERE X = 0, THEN DO IT!

This gives you the a value in your equation and you don't have to solve for it. I'll show you how this looks in the first table of values and then we won't have to do it going forward.

I'm using the coordinates (0, 1) and (1, .5) from the first table. Filling in the equation with the first set of coordinates:

[tex]1=a(b)^0[/tex] and since anything to the 0 power is 1, we know a = 1 (this happens every time we have a coordinate in an exponential table where the x value is 0. a always equals whatever y is!)

Now that we know a = 1, we use that along with the next coordinate pair and solve for b:

[tex].5=1(b)^1[/tex] which simplifies to

.5 = b and the equation is

[tex]y=1(.5)^x[/tex]

For the next table use the coordinate (0, 50) and 1, 25). From the above explanation, I know that a = 50 (because x = 0). Use that along with the next coordinate pair to solve for b:

[tex]25=50(b)^1[/tex] which simplifies to

b = .5 and the equation is

[tex]y=50(.5)^x[/tex]

Lastly, use the points (0, 192) and (1, 768) and we know that a = 192; and it follows that

[tex]768=192(b)^1[/tex] so

b = 4 and the equation is

[tex]y=192(4)^x[/tex]

The first 2 of these are exponential decay because the number inside the parenthesis is less than 1 but greater than 0; the last one is exponential growth since the number inside the parenthesis is greater than 1. That's how you can tell.

What additional Information needed to prove the triangles are congruent by the SAS Postulate? Angle XWY cong angle ZWY; angle YXW cong angle YZW; overline WY cong overline XZ; overline WY perp overline XZ

Answers

Answer:

WX = WZ

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for triangles

Required

Additional information to prove the congruence of the triangles

Congruence by SAS means 1 angle and 2 sides of each triangles are equal.

The mark on angle W means that <XWY = <ZWY--- This represent the A in SAS

Both triangles share line WY.

So, WY = WY

Lastly, to complete the proof, lines WX must equal line WZ

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle ABE = angle ABF + EBF

11x - 31 = 6x + 26 + 2x - 9 add like terms

11x - 31 = 8x + 17 transfer like terms to the same side of the equation

11x - 8x = 17 + 31 add/subtract like terms

3x = 48 divide both sides by 3

The function f(x) = One-sixth (two-fifths) Superscript x is reflected across the y-axis to create the function g(x). Which ordered pair is on g(x)?

Answers

Answer:

[tex](-3,4/375)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^x[/tex]

Reflection: Across y-axis

Required

The ordered pair on g(x)

The rule of reflection across y-axis is:

[tex](x,y) = (-x,y)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]g(x) = f(-x)[/tex]

f(-x) is:

[tex]f(-x) = \frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{-x[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]g(x) = f(-x)[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]g(x) = \frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{-x[/tex]

From the options (missing in the question), the ordered pair is:

[tex](-3,4/375)[/tex]

To check this, we have:

[tex]g(x) = \frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{-x[/tex]

[tex]g(-3) = \frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{--3[/tex]

[tex]g(-3) = \frac{1}{6}(\frac{2}{5})^{3[/tex]

Expand

[tex]g(-3) = \frac{1}{6}(\frac{8}{125})[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]g(-3) = \frac{1}{3}(\frac{4}{125})[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]g(-3) = \frac{4}{375}[/tex]

Tonya and Leo each bought a cell phone at the same time. The trade-in values, in dollars, of the cell phones are modeled by the given functions, where x is the number of months that each person has owned the phone. Tonya's Phone Leo's Phone f(x) =490(0.88)x x g(x) 0 480 2 360 4 270 phone has the greater initial trade-in value. During the first four months, the trade-in value of Tonya's phone decreases at an average rate the trade-in value of Leo's phone.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is Tonya's phone had the greater initial trade-in value.

Leo's phone decreases at an average rate slower than the trade in value of Tonya's phone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Tonya

[tex]f(x) = 490 * 0.88^x[/tex]

Leo

[tex]x \to g(x)[/tex]

[tex]0 \to 480[/tex]

[tex]2 \to 360[/tex]

[tex]4 \to 470[/tex]

Solving (a): The phone with greater initial value

The initial value is when x = 0. So, we have:

[tex]f(x) = 490 * 0.88^x[/tex]

[tex]f(0) = 490 * 0.88^0[/tex]

[tex]f(0) = 490 * 1[/tex]

[tex]f(0) = 490[/tex]

From Leo's table

[tex]g(0) = 480[/tex]

By comparison;

[tex]f(0) > g(0)[/tex]

i.e.

[tex]490 > 480[/tex]

So: Tonya's had the greater initial trade-in value

Solving (b): The phone with lesser rate

An exponential function is:

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

Where:

[tex]b \to rate[/tex]

For Tonya

[tex]b = 0.88[/tex]

For Leo, we have:

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (0,480)[/tex]

[tex](x_2,y_2) = (2,360)[/tex]

So, the equation becomes:

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

[tex]480 = ab^0[/tex] and [tex]360 = ab^2[/tex]

Solving [tex]480 = ab^0[/tex], we have:

[tex]480 = a * 1[/tex]

[tex]480 = a[/tex]

[tex]a= 480[/tex]

[tex]360 = ab^2[/tex] becomes

[tex]360 = 480 * b^2[/tex]

Divide both sides by 480

[tex]0.75 = b^2[/tex]

Take square roots

[tex]0.87 = b[/tex]

[tex]b=0.87[/tex] -- Leo's rate

By comparison; Leo's rate is slower i.e. 0.87 < 0.88
