Which of the following represents a valid first step to solving this system of equations using the substitution method?

Phoenix [80]2 years ago

Answer:

2(2y - 1) - y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

I guess the 2 equations are

2x - y = 7

x = 2y - 1

substitution message that you use one equation to express one variable by the other, and then you use that in the other equation to get one equation for one variable. then you solve for that, and use that result in the first equation to since for the second variable.

the equations are already defined that way, that the second equation directly defines x as an excision of y.

so, this needs to be used then in the first equation.

and that makes

2(2y - 1) - y = 7

the correct first step.

ABCD is a parallelogram; find the area of the shaded region.
Korolek [52]

Answer:

  B.  60 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The overall area of the parallelogram is the product of its base length (15 ft) and height (8 ft), so is ...

  overall area = (15 ft)(8 ft) = 120 ft²

The area of the quadrilateral in the middle of the parallelogram is the area of two triangles, each with a base equal to 15 ft (the horizontal line in the diagram), and heights that total 8 ft. If we let x represent the height of one of those triangles, then the other has a height of (8-x) and the sum of their areas is ...

  quadrilateral area = (1/2)(15 ft)(x) +(1/2)(15 ft)(8 ft -x)

  = (1/2)(15 ft)(x + 8 ft - x) = (1/2)(15 ft)(8 ft) = 60 ft²

Then the shaded area is the difference between the parallelogram area and the quadrilateral area:

  shaded area = parallelogram area - quadrilateral area

  = (120 ft²) - (60 ft²)

  = 60 ft²

The area of the shaded region is 60 ft².

The table of values shows the height of a car of a Ferris wheel as it travels in a circular motion.
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

  • The car makes a complete revolution in 12 s.

Step-by-step explanation:

The table header tells you the distances are <em>feet</em> (not yards). The maximum height is 55 feet, and the lowest point is 5 feet. The difference between these values is the diameter of the wheel, 50 feet, so the radius is 25 feet.

The wheel goes from its highest point to its highest point in 15 -3 = 12 seconds, so that is the time required for a complete revolution.

Suppose that the number of bacteria in a certain population increases according to an exponential growth model, with a growth ra
podryga [215]

Answer: 5489

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Growth rate (r) = 19% per hour

Sample culture in population = 2300

Size of sample after 5 hours =?

Using the exponential relation:

P = Po * r^t

P = population after 5 hours

Po = Initial sample population

t = time

P = 2300 * (1 +19%)^t

P = 2300 ×(1 + 0.19) ^5

P = 2300 * 1.19^5

P = 2300 * 2.3863536599

P = 5488.61341777

P = 5489 (nearest integer)
