Answer:
<h2>22 hours and 10 hours </h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
let the jobs be x and y, so that
x+y=32--------1
9x+7y=248----2
x=32-y
substitute x=32-y for x in equation 2 we have
9(32-y)+7y=248
open bracket we have
288-9y+7y=248
-2y=248-288
-2y=-40
2y=40
divide both sides by 2 we have
y=40/2
y= 10 hours
subtitute y=10 for y in equation 1 to find x
x+10=32--------1
x=32-10
x=22
x=22 hours
<u>We are given:</u>
An even number 'n', multiplied by the next consecutive even number is 168
<u>Solving for n:</u>
From the given statement, we can say that:
n(n+2) = 168 [<em>n multiplied by the next even number 'n+2'</em>]
n² + 2n = 168
n² + 2n - 168 = 0 [<em>subtracting 168 from both sides</em>]
We can see that we now have a quadratic equation, solving using splitting the middle term
n² + 14n - 12n - 168 = 0
n(n + 14) -12(n + 14) = 0 <em>[factoring out common terms</em>]
(n-12)(n+14) = 0
Here, we can divide both sides by either (n-12) OR (n+14)
Checking the result in both the cases:
(n + 14) = 0/(n-12) (n-12) = 0/(n+14)
n + 14 = 0 n - 12 = 0
n = -14 n = 12
Both these values are even and since we are not told if the number 'n' is positive or negative, both 12 and -14 are the possible values of n
There are many systems of equation that will satisfy the requirement for Part A.
an example is y≤(1/4)x-3 and y≥(-1/2)x-6
y≥(-1/2)x-6 goes through the point (0,-6) and (-2, -5), the shaded area is above the line. all the points fall in the shaded area, but
y≤(1/4)x-3 goes through the points (0,-3) and (4,-2), the shaded area is below the line, only A and E are in the shaded area.
only A and E satisfy both inequality, in the overlapping shaded area.
Part B. to verify, put the coordinates of A (-3,-4) and E(5,-4) in both inequalities to see if they will make the inequalities true.
for y≤(1/4)x-3: -4≤(1/4)(-3)-3
-4≤-3&3/4 This is valid.
For y≥(-1/2)x-6: -4≥(-1/2)(-3)-6
-4≥-4&1/3 this is valid as well. So Yes, A satisfies both inequalities.
Do the same for point E (5,-4)
Part C: the line y<-2x+4 is a dotted line going through (0,4) and (-2,0)
the shaded area is below the line
farms A, B, and D are in this shaded area.
