Answer:

y = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Step 1: Make sense of the given</h3>

"The ratio of y to x is 3"

This means that, y\div x=3

"The sum of y and x is 80"

This means,  x+y=80

<h3>Step 2: Make use of the facts</h3>

If y\div x=3, then y = (3*x).

We can plug this into the other equation by substitution:

x + (3 * x)=80

This simplifies to:

4x = 80

Which we can solve out and get:
x=20.

<h3>Step 3: Plug and Chug</h3>

We solved for x, but we need the value of y.

So, we go back to the equation we first derived: "y = (3*x)".

And now we substitute the value of x, into this.

y = (3 * (20))

By solving this out, we get:
y=60

So, the value of y is 60.

A particle moves along the x-axis so that its velocity in feet per second at time x, in seconds, is modeled by the quadratic fun
Katyanochek1 [597]

For this case we have the following equation:

y = 2x ^ 2 - 10x + 12

Where, we have the following variables:

x: time in seconds

y: speed in feet per seconds

For the initial velocity, we evaluate x = 0 in the given equation:

y = 2 (0) ^ 2 - 10 (0) + 12\\y = 12

Therefore, the initial speed is 12 feet per second.

Answer:

The particle's initially velocity is 12.

shape. sides. triangles. sum int angles.

triangle. 180×1=180°

quad. 180×2=360°

pentagon. 180×3=540°

n-sides. n( n−2) 180(n−2)

Is (2, 2) a solution of the system y = x and x + 2y = 6?
Mariana [72]

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x = 2 and y = 2 into both equations and if both are true then (2, 2) is a solution of the system.

y = x, that is

2 = 2 ← True

x + 2y = 6, that is

2 + 2(2) = 2 + 4 = 6 ← True

Thus (2, 2) is a solution of the system
