Answer:

21 cables

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the cables come in 250-foot coils, you cannot have a piece of one cable. So, if you take the total amount of cable you need (5,127 feet) and divide it by how long a single cable is (250 feet).

5,127 divided by 250 is 20.508, but you cannot have a piece of one cable. So, you round up to the nearest whole number, 21.

Answer:

$x = 3$ and $y = 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[Correct Question]

$x^2 - 2y = 1$

$x^2 + 5y = 29$

Required

Solve using elimination

First, we eliminate x.

Subtract equation (1) from (2)

$x^2 - x^2 + 5y - (-2y) = 29 - 1\\$

$5y - (-2y) = 28$

$5y +2y = 28$

$7y = 28$

Divide through ny 7

$y = 4$

Take $x^2 - 2y = 1$

Make x^2 the subject

$x^2 = 1 + 2y$

Substitute 4 for y

$x^2 = 1 + 2*4$

$x^2 = 1 + 8$

$x^2 = 9$

Take square roots

$x = \sqrt 9$

$x = 3$

Answer:

Answers:

Rate of change = -5

Initial value = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Each time x increases by 2 (eg from x = 1 to x = 3), the value of y drops by 10 (eg from y = 20 to y = 10)

Therefore the slope is...

slope = rise/run = (change in y)/(change in x) = -10/2 = -5

slope = -5

So each time x increases by 1, y will decrease by 5

Flip things around: each time x decreases by 1, y will increase by 5

So the pair (x,y) = (1,20) shown in row 1 of the table leads to (0,25) based on the rule above. Another way to see this is to plug m = -5, x = 1 and y = 20 into y = mx+b and solve for b to get b = 25
