Answer:

B. x = 2, y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 5y = 34...(1) \\  \\ x + 2y = 14 \\  \therefore \: x = 14 - 2y...(2) \\  \\ from \: equations \: (1) \: and \: (2) \\  \\ 2(14 - 2y) + 5y = 34 \\ \therefore \: 28 - 4y + 5y = 34 \\  \therefore \: 28 + y = 34 \\ \therefore \:  y = 34 - 28 \\  \huge \red{ \boxed{\therefore \:  y = 6}} \\ substituting \: y = 6 \: in \: equation \: (2) \\ x = 14 - 2 \times 6 \\ \therefore \:  x =14 - 12 \\  \huge \purple{ \boxed{\therefore \:  x =2}} \\  \\ \huge \orange{ \boxed{ \therefore \:  x  = 2, \:  \: y = 6}} \\

Answer: x=2, y=6: correct answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+5y=34............(1)

x+2y=14..............(2)

Using substitution method

Make x the subject of formula in equation 2

x=14-2y................(3)

Substitute equation 3 into equation 1

2(14-2y)+5y=34

28-4y+5y=34

28+y=34

Make y the subject of the formula

y= 34-28

y=6

To find x substitute y=6 into equation 1

2x+5y=34

2x+5(6)=34

2x+30=34

2x=34-30

2x= 4

x=4/2

x=2

F(x) = { x + 7 and g(x) = -x + 7<br> What transformation occurs from function f to function g?
Triss [41]
<h3>Answer:  Reflect over the y axis</h3>

=====================================================

Explanation:

We have these two given functions

  • f(x) = x+7
  • g(x) = -x+7

The change is that the x has been replaced with -x

We can say

f(x) = x+7

f(-x) = -x+7 ... replace each x with -x

g(x) = f(-x)

g(x) = -x+7

When we replace x with -x, we're flipping the x inputs from positive to negative, and vice versa. This visually will reflect the line over the vertical y axis. A point like (1,8) on f(x) reflects over to (-1,8) on g(x).

As another example, the point (-5,2) on f(x) reflects over the y axis to arrive at (5,2) on the g(x) function.

Sally needs 1 3/4 yards of fabric to make a dress. She has 4 5/8 yards. How many yards of fabric will be left over?
Sophie [7]
Hey there,

Solution:
Fabric needed = 1 3 / 4
Fabric she has = 4 5 / 8
1 3 / 4 - make the denominator into 8
1 3 / 4 = 1 6 / 8
Fabric left = 4 5 / 8 - 1 6 / 8
                = 37 / 8 - 14 / 8 
                = 23 / 8
                = 2 7 / 8

Hope this helps :))

If a machine that prints designs on T-shirts prints 500 shirts in 3 hours, how many hours will it take to print designs on 1,800
LuckyWell [14K]

500 shirts / 3 hours = 166 2/3 shirts per hour.

Divide total shirts by shirts per hour:

1800 / 166 2/3 = 10.8 hours.

A path 1 m wide is build around a garden that is a 30-meter square. What is the area taken by the path?
maria [59]

Length of outer boundary =30m

So area of outer boundary =30×30

= 900m²

Length of inner boundary of path=30-1= 29m

Inner area =29×29 =841m²

So area of path is= outer area - inner area

=900- 841

= 59m²
