The system of equation that could have led to the equation 9x = 27 is

7x - 2y = 15

x + y = 6

The correct option is the third option

7x - 2y = 15

x + y = 6

<h3>Solving systems of equations</h3>

From the question, we are to determine the system that could have led to 9x = 27


1.

9x + 2y = 21

-9x - 2y = 21

Subtracting, we get

9x + 2y = 21

-9x - 2y = 21

-------------------

18x + 4y = 0

2.

10x - y = 15

x + y = - 12

Subtracting, we get

10x - y = 15

x + y = - 12

---------------------

9x -2y = 27

3.

7x - 2y = 15

x + y = 6

Here, multiply the second equation by 2

2 × [x + y = 6]

2x + 2y = 12

Now, add to the first equation

7x - 2y = 15

2x + 2y = 12

------------------

9x = 27

4.

4x + 3y = 24

-5x - 3y = 3

Subtracting, we get

4x + 3y = 24

-5x - 3y = 3

---------------------

9x + 6y = 21

Hence, the system of equation that could have led to the equation 9x = 27 is

7x - 2y = 15

x + y = 6

The correct option is the third option

7x - 2y = 15

x + y = 6

For the first one, the graph shows a total of 12 representatives across all 5 categories, and of those, 2 are from the west this is the fraction 2/12, or the answer A) 1/6, meaning that 1 in 6 of the representatives are going to be from the western region.
For number 2, the answer is A) If you flip a coin 800 times, heads will come up about 400 times. This is because the law of large numbers says that as the number gets larger the ratio will get closer to 1:1. This means that since the coin only has 2 sides, it is about 50/50, meaning that of 800, 400 would be heads and 400 would be tails.
Hope this helps! :D

If vector u has its initial point at (-7, 3) and its terminal point at (5, -6), u =
attashe74 [19]

First of all, let <span>θθ</span> be some angle in <span><span>(0,π)</span><span>(0,π)</span></span>. Then

<span><span><span>θθ</span> is acute <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>θ<<span>π2</span></span><span>θ<<span>π2</span></span></span> <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>cosθ>0</span><span>cos⁡θ>0</span></span>.</span><span><span>θθ</span> is right <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>θ=<span>π2</span></span><span>θ=<span>π2</span></span></span> <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>cosθ=0</span><span>cos⁡θ=0</span></span>.</span><span><span>θθ</span> is obtuse <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>θ><span>π2</span></span><span>θ><span>π2</span></span></span> <span>⟺⟺</span> <span><span>cosθ<0</span><span>cos⁡θ<0</span></span>.</span></span>

Now, to see if (say) angle <span>AA</span> of the triangle <span><span>ABC</span><span>ABC</span></span> is acute/right/obtuse, we need to check whether <span><span>cos∠BAC</span><span>cos⁡∠BAC</span></span> is positive/zero/negative. But what is <span><span>cos∠BAC</span><span>cos⁡∠BAC</span></span>? It is the angle made by the vectors <span><span><span>AB</span><span>−→−</span></span><span><span>AB</span>→</span></span> and <span><span><span>AC</span><span>−→−</span></span><span><span>AC</span>→</span></span>. (When you are computing the angle at a particular vertex <span>vv</span>, you should make sure that both the vectors corresponding to the two adjacent sides have that vertex <span>vv</span> as the initial point.) We will first compute these two vectors:

<span><span><span><span>AB</span><span>−→−</span></span>=(0,0,0)−(1,2,0)=(−1,−2,0)</span><span><span><span>AB</span>→</span>=(0,0,0)−(1,2,0)=(−1,−2,0)</span></span><span><span><span><span>AC</span><span>−→−</span></span>=(−2,1,0)−(1,2,0)=(−3,−1,0)</span><span><span><span>AC</span>→</span>=(−2,1,0)−(1,2,0)=(−3,−1,0)</span></span>Therefore, the angle between these vectors is given by:<span><span><span>cos∠BAC=<span><span><span><span>AB</span><span>−→−</span></span>⋅<span><span>AC</span><span>−→−</span></span></span><span>|<span><span>AB</span><span>−→−</span></span>||<span><span>AC</span><span>−→−</span></span>|</span></span>=…</span>(1)</span><span>(1)<span>cos⁡∠BAC=<span><span><span><span>AB</span>→</span>⋅<span><span>AC</span>→</span></span><span>|<span><span>AB</span>→</span>||<span><span>AC</span>→</span>|</span></span>=…</span></span></span>Can you take it from here? From the sign of this value, you should be able to decide if angle <span>AA</span> is acute/right/obtuse.

Now, do the same procedure for the remaining two angles <span>BB</span> and <span>CC</span> as well. That should help you solve the problem.

A shortcut. Since you are not interested in the actual values of the angles, but you need only whether they are acute, obtuse or right, it is enough to compute only the sign of the numerator (the dot product between the vectors) in formula (1). The denominator is always positive.
