<h2>Answer:</h2>

The number of pages he will read in one minute is:

$2\dfrac{1}{7}\ \text{pages}$

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

Charlie reads $1\dfrac{3}{7}\ \text{pages}$ in every $\dfrac{2}{3}\ \text{minutes}$ .

We know that:

$1\dfrac{3}{7}=\dfrac{10}{7}$

This means that:

Charlie reads $\dfrac{10}{7}\ \text{pages}$ in every $\dfrac{2}{3}\ \text{minutes}$ .

This means that:

$\text{In}\ \dfrac{2}{3}\ \text{minutes he reads}\ \dfrac{10}{7}\ \text{pages}\\\\\text{Hence}$

$\text{In}\ 1\ \text{minute he will read}\ \dfrac{\dfrac{10}{7}}{\dfrac{2}{3}}\ \text{pages}$

$\text{In}\ 1\ \text{minute he will read}\ \dfrac{10\times 3}{7\times 2}\ \text{pages}$

Hence,

$\text{In}\ 1\ \text{minute he will read}\ \dfrac{15}{7}\ \text{pages}$

Hence,

$\text{In}\ 1\ \text{minute he will read}\ \dfrac{15}{7}\ \text{pages}$

$\text{In}\ 1\ \text{minute he will read}\ 2\dfrac{1}{7}\ \text{pages}$

-x=-y+2 and 3y+4=2x solve using matrices

MissTica

$\begin{cases}-x=-y+2\\3y+4=2x\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}x-y=-2\\2x-3y=4\end{cases}$

In matrix form, this is

$\begin{bmatrix}1&-1\\2&-3\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}-2\\4\end{bmatrix}$

The coefficient matrix has determinant

$\begin{vmatrix}1&-1\\2&-3\end{vmatrix}=-3+2=-1\neq0$

so it has an inverse, which is

$\begin{bmatrix}1&-1\\2&-3\end{bmatrix}^{-1}=\begin{bmatrix}3&-1\\2&-1\end{bmatrix}$

Multiply both sides by the inverse matrix:

$\begin{bmatrix}3&-1\\2&-1\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}1&-1\\2&-3\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}3&-1\\2&-1\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}-2\\4\end{bmatrix}$

$\implies\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}-10\\-8\end{bmatrix}$

so that $x=-10$ and $y=-8$ .

What happens to the graph of the line y = mx + b if the value of b is decreased?

ollegr [7]

Answer:

The lines moves lower.

Step-by-step explanation:

The steepness of a line is related to the slope, m.

b is the y-intercept, not the slope.

b is where the line intersects the y-axis.

Changing b changes the vertical position of the line.

Answer: The lines moves lower.

What is the value of x?

andrew11 [14]

Hope this will help you .

answer is 68

given than 2 sides are equal therefor 2 angles are also equal ,

so, angle 1 + angle2 + angleX = 180 [ASP]

2angle1 + angle X = 180
angle x = 150 - [56][2]
angle x = 180-112

ANGLE x = 68 DEGREE

Perform the addition.<br> (3x² + 3x - 5) + (-7x² + 9)

lakkis [162]

The question is asking us to find the sum. To do this, let's first write the original equation and then take it from there.
$(3 x^{2} + 3x - 5) + (-7 x^{2} + 9)$ <span>
Use distributive property:
</span> $3 x^{2} + 3x - 5 - 7 x^{2} + 9$
Combine Like Terms:
$
-4 x^{2} +3x+4$
Therefore, the answer to your question is -4x² + 3x + 4. Hope this helps and have a fantastic day!
