Jarred sells DVDs. His inventory shows that he has a total of 3,500 DVDs. He has 2,342 more contemporary titles than classic tit

les. Let x represent the number of contemporary titles and y represent the number of classic titles. The system of equations models the given information for both types of DVDs.
x + y = 3,500

x – y = 2,342

The number of contemporary titles and classic titles in Jarred DVDs collection is 2,921 and 579 respectively.

<h3>Simultaneous equation</h3>

Simultaneous equation is an equation which involves the solving for two unknown values at the same time.

number of contemporary titles = x
number of classic titles = y

x + y = 3,500

x – y = 2,342

Add both be equation

x + x = 3,500 + 2,342

2x = 5,842

x = 5,842 ÷ 2

x = 2,921

Substitute x = 2,921 into

x – y = 2,342

2,921 - y = 2, 342

-y = 2,342 - 2,921

-y = -579

y = 579

Therefore, the number of contemporary titles and classic titles in Jarred DVDs collection is 2,921 and 579 respectively.

What is the simplified form of the following expression?

ziro4ka [17]

For this case we must simplify the following expression: $7 (\sqrt [3] {2x}) - 3 (\sqrt [3] {16x}) - 3 (\sqrt [3] {8x})$

We rewrite:

$16x = 2 ^ 3 * 2x\\8x = 2 ^ 3 * x$

We rewrite the expression:

$7 (\sqrt [3] {2x}) - 3 (\sqrt [3] {2 ^ 3 * 2x}) - 3 (\sqrt [3] {2 ^ 3 * x}) =$

By definition of properties of powers and roots we have:

$\sqrt [n] {a ^ m} = a ^ {\frac {m} {n}}$

Then, taking the terms of the radical:

$7 (\sqrt [3] {2x}) - 3 (2 \sqrt [3] {2x}) - 3 (2 \sqrt [3] {x}) =\\7 \sqrt [3] {2x} -6 \sqrt [3] {2x} -6 \sqrt [3] {x} =$

We add similar terms:

$\sqrt [3] {2x} -6 \sqrt [3] {x}$

Can u help me with this one

koban [17]

Answer:

SU = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

SU= 8x

ST = 6x

TU = 4

SU = ST + TU = 6x + 4 = 8x

SU - ST = 8x - 6x = 2x = 4

2x = 4

x = 4/2

x = 2

SU = 8x

SU = 8(2)

SU = 16

Imagine that you have plotted many data points on an xy-plane. Your points seem to align into a clear best-fit line. Do you thin

sattari [20]

It depends really. If you stay close to the present, then predicting future results isn't too bad. The further you go out, the more unpredictable things get. This is because the points may deviate from the line of best fit (aka regression line) as time wears on. Of course, it also depends on what kind of data we're working with. Some pairs of variables are naturally going to correlate very strongly together. An example would be temperature versus ice cream sales.

....help please................

Tamiku [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

$x=3\\y=\frac{1}{3}\\z=5\\ \\\frac{12x-3y}{4x-z} \\=\frac{12*3-3*\frac{1}{3} }{4*3-5}\\=\frac{36-\frac{3}{1}*\frac{1}{3} }{12-5} \\=\frac{36-\frac{3}{3}}{7}\\=\frac{36-1}{7}\\=\frac{35}{7}\\=5$
