Answer:

C. $\Rightarrow \bold{8x = 16}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two equations:

$y=2x ........ (1)\\ 2x+3y=16.......(2)$

To find:

The correct option when value of y is substituted to 2nd equation using the 1st equation.

Solution:

First of all, let us learn about the substitution method.

Substitution method is the method to provide solutions to two variables when we have two equations and two variables.

In substitution method, we find the value of one variable in terms of the other variable and put this value in the other equation.

Now, the other equation becomes only single variable and then we solve for the variable's value.

Here, we have two equations and value of one varible is:

$y=2x$

Let us put value of y in 2nd equation:

$2x+3y=16\\\Rightarrow 2x + 3(2x) = 16\\\Rightarrow 2x + 6x = 16\\\Rightarrow \bold{8x=16}$

So, the correct answer is option C. $\Rightarrow \bold{8x = 16}$

Given segments AB and CD intersect at E.

nata0808 [166]

The length of a segment is the distance between its endpoints.

$\mathbf{AB = 3\sqrt{2}}$
AB and CD are not congruent
AB does not bisect CD
CD does not bisect AB

<u>(a) Length of AB</u>

We have:

$\mathbf{A = (1,2)}$

$\mathbf{B = (4,5)}$

The length of AB is calculated using the following distance formula

$\mathbf{AB = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}}$

So, we have:

$\mathbf{AB = \sqrt{(1 - 4)^2 + (2 - 5)^2}}$

$\mathbf{AB = \sqrt{18}}$

Simplify

$\mathbf{AB = 3\sqrt{2}}$

<u>(b) Are AB and CD congruent</u>

First, we calculate the length of CD using:

$\mathbf{CD = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}}$

Where:

$\mathbf{C = (2, 4)}$

$\mathbf{D = (2, 1)}$

So, we have:

$\mathbf{CD = \sqrt{(2 -2)^2 + (4 - 1)^2}}$

$\mathbf{CD = \sqrt{9}}$

$\mathbf{CD = 3}$

By comparison

$\mathbf{CD \ne AB}$

Hence, AB and CD are not congruent

<u>(c) AB bisects CD or not?</u>

If AB bisects CD, then:

$\mathbf{AB = \frac 12 \times CD}$

The above equation is not true, because:

$\mathbf{3\sqrt 2 \ne \frac 12 \times 3}$

Hence, AB does not bisect CD

<u>(d) CD bisects AB or not?</u>

If CD bisects AB, then:

$\mathbf{CD = \frac 12 \times AB}$

The above equation is not true, because:

$\mathbf{3 \ne \frac 12 \times 3\sqrt 2}$

Hence, CD does not bisect AB

Algebra 2 word problem: Urgent!

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

180 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Surfer #1 takes a capsule every 6 hours, but this is also equal to 2 capsules every 12 hours. Surfer #2 takes 1 capsule every 12 hours. Thus, both surfers take a total of 3 capsules every 12 hours.

By dividing 45 total capsules they need to consume by 3, the number of capsules the surfers consume every 12 hour, you get the total number of hours times 12 it takes for them to consume 45 capsules. 45 / 3 = 15, so it takes 15 * 12 hours for them to consume 45 capsules. This is equal to 180 total hours.
