Mathematics

Alexxandr [17]3 years ago

Answer:

  b.  (1, 3, ­-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

A graphing calculator or scientific calculator can solve this system of equations for you, or you can use any of the usual methods: elimination, substitution, matrix methods, Cramer's rule.

It can also work well to try the offered choices in the given equations. Sometimes, it can work best to choose an equation other than the first one for this. The last equation here seems a good one for eliminating bad answers:

  a: -1 -5(1) +2(-4) = -14 ≠ -18

  b: 1 -5(3) +2(-2) = -18 . . . . potential choice

  c: 3 -5(8) +2(1) = -35 ≠ -18

  d: 2 -5(-3) +2(0) = 17 ≠ -18

This shows choice B as the only viable option. Further checking can be done to make sure that solution works in the other equations:

  2(1) +(3) -3(-2) = 11 . . . . choice B works in equation 1

  -(1) +2(3) +4(-2) = -3 . . . choice B works in equation 2

A coordinate grid with 2 lines. The first line is labeled y equals negative StartFraction 7 over 4 EndFraction x plus StartFract
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

1) (2.2, -1.4)

2) (1.33, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1)

Two lines, with their corresponding equations are given and we have to find the solution to the system of equations.

The given lines are:

Equation of Line 1:

y=\frac{-7}{4}x+\frac{5}{2}

This line passes through the points: (0, 2.5) , (2.2, -1.4)

Equation of Line 2:

y=\frac{3}{4}x-3

This line passes through the points (0, -3) , (2.2, -1.4)

By looking at the graph/given data we have to find the solution of these linear equations.

Remember that the solution of linear equations is an ordered pair, through which both the lines pass i.e. the point at which both the given lines intersect is the solution of the linear equations.

From the given data we can see that both the lines pass through one common point, (2.2, -1.4). Since, both lines pass through this point, this means this is the point of intersection of the lines and hence there solution.

So, the answer to this questions is (2.2, -1.4)

Question 2)

The given equations are:

y = 1.5x - 1                                        Equation 1

y = 1                                                  Equation 2

We can solve these equations by method of substitution.

Substituting the value of y from Equation 2, in Equation 1, we get:

1 = 1.5x - 1

1 + 1 = 1.5x

2 = 1.5x

x = 2/1.5

x = 1.33

y = 1

Thus, the solution of the given linear equations is (1.33, 1)

Is the sqrt of 1 - sin^2 theta = cos theta true? If so, in which quadrants does angle theta terminate?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Answer: The answer is option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

We have,

{ \sin }^{2}  theta \: +  {cos}^{2}theta  = 1

{cos}^{2} \: theta  = 1 -  {sin}^{2}  \: theta

cos \: theta =  \sqrt{1 -  { \sin }^{2}theta }

So, it's true; and it lies in quadrant 1 and 4.

The reason according to the "CAST" rule cos theta is in 1st and 3rd quadrant cos theta is positive.
