Answer:
(c, d) = (25, 35)
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the first equation by 2.5 and subtract the second one:
2.5(c +d) -(2.5c +1.75d) = 2.5(60) -(123.75)
0.75d = 26.25 . . . . . . . . . simplify
26.25/0.75 = d = 35 . . . . divide by the coefficient of d
60 -d = c = 25 . . . . . . . . . use the first equation to find c
(c, d) = (25, 35)
The difference of 7 and 7/8 and 3 1/4 can be restated as the difference between 63/8 and 13/4. This is just a change from mixed numbers to improper fractions.
We must now get a common denominator (the bottom part of a fraction). To get 8, we must multiply by 2 to the denominator of 13/4. Since we want this number to stay in the same value, we have to multiply the numerator by 2 as well (top part of the fraction). Therefore, we are getting the difference of 63/8 and 26/8. Doing this, we get (63-26)/8, so the answer is 37/8 = 4 5/8
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change is
f(x2) - f(x1)
-----------------
x2-x1
We want to find the change from 1 to 3
f(3) = 8
f(1) = 2
f(3) - f(1) 8-2 6
----------------- = ------------ = ---- = 3
3-1 2 2
<span> x²+4x-1 - (3x - 7) = x² + 4x - 1 - 3x +7 = x² + x + 6
</span>x² + x + 6 should be added to 3x - 7 to make x²+4x-1.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Both equations have -7y. You can eliminate them by subtracting one equation from the other:
Multiply equation 1 by -1, then add it to equation 2:
-2x + 7y = 74
3x - 7y = -83
———————
x = -9
2x - 7y = -74
2(-9) - 7y = -74
-7y = -56
Y = 8
(x,y) = (-9, 8)
