Mathematics
1 answer:
EleoNora [17]2 years ago
3 0

Let:

\begin{gathered} 7x-y=10_{\text{ }}(1) \\ -5x+y=12_{\text{ }}(2) \end{gathered}

Using elimination method:

\begin{gathered} (1)+(2) \\ 7x-5x-y+y=10+12 \\ 2x=22 \\ x=\frac{22}{2} \\ x=11 \end{gathered}

Replace the value of x into (2):

\begin{gathered} -5(11)+y=12 \\ -55+y=12 \\ y=12+55 \\ y=67 \end{gathered}

Lee watches TV for 3 hours per day. During that time, the TV consumes 150 watts per hour. Electricity costs (10 cents)/(1 kilowa
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

135 cent

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of electricity = 10cent / 1 kilowatt hour

TV consumption = 150watt per hour

Duration = 3 hours

Cost of operating for 30 days

Total energy usage per day: (150 watt/hr) * 3 hours = 450 watts = 450/1000 = 0.45kW

Total energy for 30 days = 0.45 * 30 = 13.5 Kilowatt

Cost per kilowatt = 10cent

13.5 kw = 13.5 * 10 cent = 135 cent

135 cent = $1.35

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • f(x) = x-2 and g(x) = 5x+3

<u>Find g(-4) first:</u>

  • g(-4) = 5(-4) + 3 = -20 + 3 = -17

Allen is building birdhouses that require 1/2-foot-long boards. How many pieces that are exactly 1/2 ft long can be made from a
Ymorist [56]
Hello!

Since you have a board that is 8 and 1/4 feet long, the easy way to calculate how many 1/2 feet are on 8 feet is two multiply 8 x 2, since there are two halves of a foot, in one foot (because two halves equal one whole). Now this may sound confusing but we can double check.
   _________
   |       |          As we can see here, there are two rows, each with 8 halves.
  V      V          So now we multiply 8 x 2 and get 16.
1/2 + 1/2 = 1
1/2 + 1/2 = 1
1/2 + 1/2 = 1
1/2 + 1/2 = 1
1/2 + 1/2 = 1      
1/2 + 1/2 = 1
1/2 + 1/2 = 1
1/2 + 1/2 = 1
                  ^-- Now if you add all of these, it's 8, proving that you can do 8 x 2

Yes, you may be asking, "What about the 1/4?" Don't worry about it! Questions like this try to trick you into making it more complicated, it asks how many halves are in 8 and 1/4, but 1/4 isn't enough to make a half so we leave it alone.
