Solve through substitution<br><br> –3x–8y=20<br><br> y=5x+19<br><br> Point of intersection, please

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

(-4, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x - 8y = 20; y = 5x + 19

y = 5x + 19; -3x - 8y = 20

y = 5x + 19

-3x - 8y = 20

-3x - 8(5x + 19) = 20

-43x - 152 = 20

-43x - 152 + 152 = 20 + 152

-43x = 172

-43x / -43 = 172 / -43

x = -4

y = 5x + 19

y = (5)(-4) + 19

y = -1

I’m confused please help

Law Incorporation [45]

So x equals 30 because u did 180-150 and y is also 30 since you found x you then add 90 plus 30 and it will give u 120 then 180 minus 120 will be 60 then 90 - 60 because u are trying to find y, and u will get 30.

A community group bought 30 tickets to an amusement park at a total cost of $810. They bought x student tickets for $25 each and y adult tickets for $30 each.
***
let x=number of student tickets bought
30-x=number of adult tickets bought
..

25x+30(30-x)=810
25x+900-30x=810
5x=90
x=18
30-x=12
number of student tickets bought=18
number of adult tickets bought=12

Hope this helps!

A company's profit C (in thousands of dollars) can be modeled by the polynomial function C = - 5x ^ 3 + 6x ^ 2 + 15x , where x i

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

849 items.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the profit C (in thousands of dollars) for x thousands of items related as

$C = - 5x ^ 3 + 6x ^ 2 + 15x \\\\\Rightarrow -5x^3+6x^2+15x -C=0\cdots(i)$

As the profit is $14,000 for producing 2000 items, so

C= 14 thousand dollars and

x= 2 thousand items.

Putting C= 14 in the equation ( we have),

$-5x^3+6x^2+15x -14=0\cdots(ii)$

Now, x=2 is one of the solutions to the equation (ii), so (x-2) is a factor of the equation (ii), we have

$(x-2)(-5x^2-4x+7)=0 \\\\\Rightarrow x-2=2 \; or \; -5x^2-4x+7=0$

We have the given solution for x-2=0, so sloving -5x^2-4x+7=0 for other solutions.

$-5x^2-4x+7=0 \\\\\Rightarrow x= \frac {-(-4)\pm \sqrt {(-4)^2-4\times (-5)7}}{2\times (-5)} \\\\\Rightarrow x= \frac {4\pm \sqrt {156}}{2\times (-5)} \\\\\Rightarrow x= \frac {4\pm 12.49}{2\times (-5)} \\\\\Rightarrow x = \frac {4+ 12.49}{2\times (-5)}, \frac {4- 12.49}{2\times (-5)} \\\\\Rightarrow x = -1.649, 0.849$

As the number of items cant be negative, so x= 0.849 thousand is the other number of items.

Hence, the other number of items for the same profit is 849 items.
