Answer:

x = 8

y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Total small box weight = 50x [x being the number of small boxes]

Total large box weight = 80y [y being the number of large boxes]

Total boxes = x+y = 19

Total weight = 1280

Determine x and y.

You know 2 equations. One for weight and another for number of boxes each.

1280 = 50x +80y
x+y = 19

Rewrite second equation:

x+y=19

y=19-x

You have to plug in one into another.

1280 = 50x + 80(19-x)

Solve for x

1280 = 50x + 1520 - 80x

-240 = -30x

x = 8

Solve for y by plugging in x into one of the equations:

8+y = 19

y = 11

50 points!!!!! Please!!!!! Sandra and Jenny spend a certain amount of money from their money box each month to buy plants. The t

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

A) Function 2 shows a greater rate of change because Jenny spends $6 each month and Sandra spends $5 each month.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept for Sandra is 55 and the slope is -5. While Jenny's y-intercept is 50 and slope is -6.

6 is a greater number therefore causing Jenny's slope to decrease faster causing her to have less money at a much faster rate. (rate of change=slope) Jeny's slope is decreasing at a faster rate of change because she is spending more money everyday than Sandra is.

Hope this helps! Have a great day! :)

Solve the differential. This was in the 2016 VCE Specialist Maths Paper 1 and i'm a bit stuck

Nimfa-mama [501]

$\sqrt{2 - x^{2}} \cdot \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{2 - y}$
$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{(2 - y)\sqrt{2 - x^{2}}}$

Now, isolate the variables, so you can integrate.
$(2 - y)dy = \frac{dx}{\sqrt{2 - x^{2}}}$
$\int (2 - y)\,dy = \int\frac{dx}{\sqrt{2 - x^{2}}}$
$2y - \frac{y^{2}}{2} = sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}} + \frac{1}{2}C$

$4y - y^{2} = 2sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}} + C$
$y^{2} - 4y = -2sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}} - C$
$(y - 2)^{2} - 4 = -2sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}} - C$
$(y - 2)^{2} = 4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}} - C$

$y - 2 = \pm\sqrt{4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}} - C}$
$y = 2 \pm\sqrt{4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}} - C}$

At x = 1, y = 0.
$0 = 2 \pm\sqrt{4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} - C}$
$-2 = \pm\sqrt{4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} - C}$

$4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} - C > 0$
$\therefore 2 = \sqrt{4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} - C}$

$4 = 4 - 2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} - C$
$0 = -2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} - C$
$C = -2sin^{-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} = -2\frac{\pi}{4}$
$C = -\frac{\pi}{2}$

$\therefore y = 2 - \sqrt{4 + \frac{\pi}{2} - 2sin^{-1}\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}}}$
