A plant costs p dollars and a bush costs b dollars. Ana buys 2 plants and 4 bushes for $42. Paola buys 7 plants and 9 bushes for $107. Write down a pair of simultaneous equations and solve them to find out the value of p and the value of b.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2p + 4b = 42

7p + 9b = 107

p = $5

b = $8

Step-by-step explanation:

p is cost of plant, b is cost of bush

2p + 4b = 42

7p + 9b = 107

First we'll solve the first equation for p in terms of b:

2p + 4b = 42

subtract 4b from both sides

2p = -4b + 42

divide both sides by 2

p = -2b + 21

Now substitute that value in for p in the second equation, and solve for a numerical value of b:

7(-2b + 21) + 9b = 107

-14b + 147 + 9b = 107

combine like terms:

-5b = -40

b = 8

Use this to go back and solve for p:

p = -2b + 21

p = -2(8) + 21

p = -16 + 21 = 5

---------------------------

check the math:

2p + 4b = 42

2(5) + 4(8) = 10 + 32 = 42

round 0.982 to 2 decimal places

Answers

Answer:

0.98

Step-by-step explanation:

0.982,0.98()2 (round up if 5+ down 4-) 0.98

The number 0.982 rounded of to two decimal places will be 0.98.

What is rounding a number to some specific place?

Rounding some number to a specific value is making its value simpler (therefore losing accuracy), mostly done for better readability or accessibility.

Rounding to some place keeps it accurate on the left side of that place but rounded or sort of like trimmed from the right in terms of exact digits.

The digit 5 acts as a limit.

if the right-sided digit to the digit where we've to round off is < 5, we keep it the same and make all right-sided values 0, and if the right-sided digit is > 5, then we make it increase by 1, and the rest of the right-sided digits become 0. If the digit on right is 5, and after it, there are only zeros or no value, then we round up (increase by 1, as we did in 347500 -> 34800 ) (Well there are many detailed rules of rounding)

Since the given number is 0.982, and in this number the thousandth place is taken by 2, therefore, the number when rounded off will be equal to 0.98.

Hence, the number 0.982 rounded of to two decimal places will be 0.98.

enlarge the triangle by a scale factor of -1.5 with centre of englargement (3,6)

Answers

The coordinates of the enlarged and reflected triangle are A'(x, y) = (6, 3),  B'(x, y) = (3, 3) and C'(x, y) = (6, 0).

How to enlarge a triangle on a Cartesian plane by rigid transformation

In this problem we find a triangle whose vertices have the following coordinates: A(x, y) = (1, 8), B(x, y) = (3, 8), C(x, y) = (1, 10), and we are asked to enlarge the triangle by a scale factor of - 1.5 and with a centre of enlargement at (3, 6). Please notice that the negative sign of the scale factor involves both enlargement and reflection. Then, the operation can be done by the following operation:

P'(x, y) = O(x, y) + k · [P(x, y) - O(x, y)]            (1)

Where:

O(x, y) - Center of enlargementk - Scale factorP(x, y) - Original pointP'(x, y) - Resulting point

If we know that O(x, y) = (3, 6), k = - 1.5, A(x, y) = (1, 8), B(x, y) = (3, 8) and C(x, y) = (1, 10), then the coordinates of the resulting expression:

A'(x, y) = (3, 6) + (- 1.5) · [(1, 8) - (3, 6)]

A'(x, y) = (3, 6) + (- 1.5) · (- 2, 2)

A'(x, y) = (3, 6) + (3, - 3)

A'(x, y) = (6, 3)

B'(x, y) = (3, 6) + (- 1.5) · [(3, 8) - (3, 6)]

B'(x, y) = (3, 6) + (- 1.5) · (0, 2)

B'(x, y) = (3, 6) + (0, - 3)

B'(x, y) = (3, 3)

C'(x, y) = (3, 6) + (- 1.5) · [(1, 10) - (3, 6)]

C'(x, y) = (3, 6) + (- 1.5) · (- 2, 4)

C'(x, y) = (3, 6) + (3, - 6)

C'(x, y) = (6, 0)

The coordinates of the enlarged and reflected triangle are A'(x, y) = (6, 3),  B'(x, y) = (3, 3) and C'(x, y) = (6, 0).

Use the pythagorean theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2) to find the side length of UV.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

6.1^2 + 4.3^2 = 55.2

Then square root 55.2, which is 7.463 cm

What is the slope of the line shown?

Answers

The answer should be 1/2

Answer:

The slope of the line show is always writen in the form of rise/ run or y/x. Bassically the answer should look like a fraction. In this case, the slope of the line is 1/2. Graphing points on the line always make this process eaiser. From one point to another measure the rise/run or y/x and that will be your slope. Here the line rises one point and runs 2. The slope of the line is positive because it slants right in quadrant one of the graph.
