Y= - x+2 Y=3x-4
Estimate the solution to the system of equations

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{3}{2}\\ y=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]y=-x+2\\y=3x-4[/tex]

Let's solve one of them for x.

[tex]y=3x-4[/tex]

Add 4

[tex]y+4=3x[/tex]

Divide by 3.

[tex]x=\frac{y+4}{3}[/tex]

Now, plug the value of y in the formula, or you can plug the value of x in the other equation. I'll take this one.

[tex]x=\frac{y+4}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{(-x+2)+4}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-x+2+4}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-x+6}{3}[/tex]

Multiply by 3 to get rid of the denominator.

[tex]3x=-x+6[/tex]

add x

[tex]3x+x=6[/tex]

Combine like terms;

[tex]4x=6[/tex]

Divide by 4.

[tex]x=\frac{6}{4}[/tex]

Simplify.

[tex]x=\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Now that you found the value of x, replace it in any of the equations to find y.

[tex]y=-x+2\\y=-(\frac{3}{2})+2\\ y=-\frac{3}{2}+2[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{-3+2*2}{2} \\y=\frac{-3+4}{2} \\y=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Proof:

[tex]y=3x-4\\\frac{1}{2}=3(\frac{3}{2})-4\\\frac{1}{2}=(\frac{9}{2})-4[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2}=\frac{9-4*2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2}=\frac{9-8}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Find the area of the regular polygon.

Round your answer to the

nearest tenth if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete as the dimension of the polygon is not given.

However, I'll give a general explanation of how to calculate the area of a regular polygon.

If you follow these simple steps, you'll arrive at your answer.

The area of a polygon is calculated as thus;

A = ½(nbh)

Where A represent the area

n represents the number of sides

b represents the length of the base

h represent the height of the polygon

Take for instance, the polygon is a regular pentagon.

This means n = 5.

Also assume that the base and the height are 5cm and 7cm respectively.

This means that

Area = ½ * (5 * 5 * 7)

Area = ½ * 175

Area = 87.5cm²

Hence, the area of the polygon is 87.5cm²

For the arithmetic sequence beginning with the terms {9, 14, 19, 24, 29, 34 ...}, what is the sum of the first 23 terms?

Answers

Answer:

1472

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of n terms of an arithmetic sequence is

[tex]S_{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{n}{2}[/tex] [ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ]

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 9 and d = 19 - 14 = 5 , thus

[tex]S_{23}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{23}{2}[/tex] [ (2 × 9) + (22 × 5) ]

     = 11.5 (18 + 110) = 11.5 × 128 = 1472

The area of a rectangular swimming pool is 360 square feet. If the length of the pool is 9 feet more than it’s width, find the length of the pool

Answers

Answer:

The length of the pool is [tex]L=24\:ft[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given by [tex]A=L\cdot W[/tex] where L is the length, W is the width.

If the length of the pool is 9 feet more than it’s width, this means that [tex]L=9+W[/tex]

We know that the area of a rectangular swimming pool is 360 [tex]\:ft^2[/tex]. So we simple insert the length ([tex]L=9+W[/tex]), width ( [tex]W[/tex]) and area (360) into the formula and  solve the resulting equation.

[tex]360=\left(9+W\right)W\\\\360=9W+W^2\\\\9W+W^2=360\\\\W^2+9W-360=0[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Solve\:with\:the\:quadratic\:formula}\\\\\mathrm{For\:a\:quadratic\:equation\:of\:the\:form\:}ax^2+bx+c=0\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}\\\\x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex][tex]\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=1,\:b=9,\:c=-360:\quad W_{1,\:2}=\frac{-9\pm \sqrt{9^2-4\cdot \:1\left(-360\right)}}{2\cdot \:1}\\\\W=\frac{-9+\sqrt{9^2-4\cdot \:1\left(-360\right)}}{2\cdot \:1}= 15[/tex]

[tex]W=\frac{-9-\sqrt{9^2-4\cdot \:1\left(-360\right)}}{2\cdot \:1}= -24[/tex]

A length cannot be negative. So [tex]W=15[/tex] and the length of the pool is [tex]L=9+15=24\:ft[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose p = 6 and b = 8, so that tan x is 6/8

Then the hypotenuse is sq rt (6x6 + 8x8) = sq rt (36 + 64) = sq rt (100) = 10

So sin x = p / h = 6 / 10

And cos x = b / h = 8 / 10

So A is the answer

Answer:

A. sin x = 6/10 and cos x = 8/10.

Step-by-step explanation:

If tan x is 6/8 the  opposite side to x = 6 and the adjacent side = 8.

So the hypotenuse of the triangle = √(6^2 + 8^2)

= √100

= 10.

So sin x = 6/10 and cos x = 8/10.

At the college football game there were 48,000 people.

If 77% of the people at the game were supporters for the home team then we need to find how many people were supporting the home team.

x/ 48000 = 77/ 100

The desired percentage of Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) in a certain type of aluminous cement is 5.5. To test whether the true average percentage is 5.5 for a particular production facility, 16 independently obtained samples are analyzed and a sample mean of 5.25 was obtained. Suppose that the percentage of SiO2 in a sample is normally distributed with a sigma of 0.3. Does this indicate conclusively that the true average is smaller than 5.5? Carry the procedure at a 0.01 significance level. Use only the P-Value approach. State H0 and Ha

Answers

Answer:

a)  Null hypothesis : H₀ : μ = 5.5

 Alternative Hypothesis : H₁ : μ < 5.5

b) The test statistic

        |t| = |-3.33| = 3.33

c) P - value lies between in these intervals

0.001 < P < 0.005

Step-by-step explanation:

Step( i ):-

Given data the Population mean 'μ' = 5.5

The small sample size 'n' = 16

The sample mean (x⁻) = 5.25

Given the  percentage of SiO2 in a sample is normally distributed with a sigma of 0.3.

Null hypothesis : H₀ : μ = 5.5

 Alternative Hypothesis : H₁ : μ < 5.5

 Level of significance ∝ = 0.01

Step(ii):-

 The test statistic

                              [tex]t = \frac{x^{-} -mean}{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

                             [tex]t = \frac{5.25 -5.5}{\frac{0.3}{\sqrt{16} } }[/tex]

On calculation , we get

                            t = -3.33

                           |t| = |-3.33| = 3.33

Step(iii):-

P - value

The degrees of freedom γ = n-1 = 16-1 =15

The calculated value t = 3.33 (check t-table) lies between the 0.001 to 0.005

0.001 < P < 0.005

Condition(i)

P - value < ∝ then reject H₀

Condition(ii)

P - value > ∝ then Accept H₀

we observe that  0.001 < P < 0.005

P- value < 0.01

we rejected  H₀

(or)

The tabulated value  = 2.60 at 0.01 level of significance with '15' degrees of freedom

The calculated value t = 3.33 > 2.60 at 0.01 level of significance with '15' degrees of freedom

The null hypothesis is rejected

Manuel had 7.8 grams of pepper. Then he used 0.7 grams of pepper to make some scrambled eggs.how much pepper does Manuel have left

Answers

7.8-0.7 =7.1 .........

Greetings, Brianna!

In this problem, we need to figure out how many grams of pepper Manuel has left after subtracting or taking away 0.7 grams from his original amount of 7.8 grams.

1. First of all, when subtracting decimals, the easiest thing to do is make sure your equations are lined up nicely. For example, if one number has a decimal point but the other doesn't we need to make it so the one that doesn't have a decimal point gets one. We can do this by adding .0, so we don't change the value, but rather make the subtraction process easier. Additionally, having a whole number and a decimal that is less than 1 can be tricky to subtract when lining up, so we could add a zero before the decimal. As you can see, there is no change we could make (similar to my examples), so the numbers are ready to subtract.

2. Because we know Manuel is taking the smaller number from the larger number, we will line it up as so:

7.8

-0.7

3. From there, it's quite simple: we subtract just as if it were a normal (vertical) subtraction problem, from right to left, top to bottom. Pretend the decimals aren't there (refer to text below with the matching asterisk)*.

[tex]8 - 7 = 1[/tex]

[tex]7 - 0 = 7[/tex]

7.8

-0.7

 71

4. Surely that's impossible; getting 71 grams as your answer. Heck, we never started anywhere close to that! But we're not done there!

Now we have to add our decimal point. Because you are subtracting, put it in the same place as the numbers before.  If you prefer just adding it as you go, refer to step #3. Place the decimal in the under the answer bar,  directly underneath the other points. Don't pay much attention to it.

*Important: This is different for other operations, but when it comes to adding and subtracting decimals, the decimal will be in the same place. That's why it is important we line up the numbers exactly!

 7.8

-0.7

 7.1

Therefore, our answer is 7.1 grams. Manuel has 7.1 grams of pepper left.

Please let me know if this helped! Tell me if you have any questions, and if you wouldn't mind, I'd be so grateful if you could rate me.
