Remark

There are two ways to do this. You can graph the equations (which I have included at the end of the question using Desmos) or you can solve it algebraically which in this case is going to be slightly painful.

Algebra

Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second by 3

<em><u>First Equation</u></em>

4 [3x + 4y = 16]

12x + 16y = 64             (3)

<em><u>Second Equation</u></em>

3 [-4x - 3y = - 19]

- 12x - 9y = - 57           (4)

Add (3) and (4)

12x + 16y = 64

<u>- 12x - 9y = -57 </u>           Add

7y = 7                           Divide by 7

y = 1

Solve for x

3x + 4y = 16         Let y = 1

3x + 4(1) = 16

3x + 4 = 16           Subtract 4

3x = 12                 Divide by 3

x = 12/3

x = 4

Answer

(4,1) just as the graph suggests.

Answer:

(4,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 4y = 16

-4x - 3y = -19

4( 3x + 4y = 16)

3( -4x - 3y = -19)

Distribute

12x + 16y = 64

-12x - 9y = -57

Now subtract both equations

7y = 7

/7 on both sides

y = 1

Substitute y = 1 in one of the equations.

3x + 4y = 16

3x + 4(1) = 16

-4 on both sides

3x = 12

/3 on both sides

x = 4

Answer:

x = 4

y = 1

Felicity's dog eats two cups of dog food per day. Felicity's dog eats at least one-quarter cup more than one-half of the amount
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

2 > \frac{1}{2} m + \frac{1}{4}  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • Felicity's dog eats two cups of dog food per day :2

If the amount of food that Martin's dog eats is represented by using m

Felicity's dog eats at least one-quarter cup more than one-half of the amount Martin's dog eats: \frac{1}{2} m + \frac{1}{4}

So we have the inequality represents the situation is:

2 > \frac{1}{2} m + \frac{1}{4}

What is the present value of $4,900 per year at a discount rate of 10 percent if the first payment is received 6 years from now
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

17640

Step-by-step explanation:

at a discount of 10% per year $4900 is equal to $490 per year

payment started 6 years ago from now and ended 20 years from now

therefore there is an accumulation of 26 years

for 26 years = 26 *$490= $12740

present value therefore = $4900+$12740=$ 17640

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

  • <em>The average velocity of the object is multiplied by the time traveled to find the displacement. The equation x = ½( v + u)t can be manipulated, as shown below, to find any one of the four values if the other three are known.</em>
