Answer:

x = -52

y = -11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 1st number = x

Let 2nd number = y

Hence:

x+y=-63

x-y=-41

y = x+41

(Apply Simultaneous Equations)

x+(x+41)=-63

2x+41=-63

2x=-63-41

2x=-104

x=-104/2

x=-52

Now:

y=-52+41

y=-11

A person leaves her camp at 7:00 a.m. to hike back to her car. The distance from the car in kilometers y after x hours of hiking

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The x axis in the function represents, the number of hours after 7:00 A.M. , the person reaches her car. The person reaches the car at 1:00 P.M.

Step-by-step explanation:

The x axis denotes the no. of hours and and the y axis denotes the distance from the car.

X Intercept is a point where the line intersects the X axis, we can easily notice the fact that at that point, y=0 ie. The person has reached his/her respective car.

The line intersects x at 6.

Therefore, a total of 6 hours are taken from the beginning of the hike.

Thus, the person reaches the car at 1:00 P.M.

A customer wants to put in a concrete driveway that is 10" thick. How much concrete would it take to pour a driveway that measur

stellarik [79]

Answer: 22.59 yd^3

Step-by-step explanation:

First the volume of a cuboid whose measurements are:

L = length, W = width and T = thiknes is:

V = L*W*T.

We want to calculate the volume of a shape that is:

10'' thick, 18' wide and 42' long.

This notation is:

(') = feet

('') = inches

The first step is to write our 3 numbers in the same units, then we can use that:

1 inch = 0.083 ft.

Then 10 inches are equal to:

10'' = 10*(0.083 ft) = 0.83 ft = 0.83'

Then the volume of concrete needed will be:

V = 0.83ft*18ft*42ft = 627.48 ft^3

But we want this expressed in yd^3

1ft = 0.33 yd

then

1ft^3 = (0.33 yd)^3 = 0.036 yd^3

then 627.48 ft^3 can be written as:

627.48 ft^3 = 627.48*( 0.036 yd^3) = 22.59 yd^3

Can we combine different functions (quadratic, linear, exponential, cube root) into one piecewise function? If the answer is yes

yanalaym [24]

Answer: yes, because it is useful to describe changes in the behavior of the thing we are describing.

Step-by-step explanation:

A piecewise function f(x) is a function that is "different" depending on the range of the values of x, this is for example:

y = x -----> if x < 0

y = x^2 ----- if x ≥ 0

This is used to represent changes in the behavior of the thing we are describing.

For example, suppose an object that is moving with constant velocity, the velocity graph will be a constant line.

Now, the object suddenly, at a time t = t0 accelerates to a constant acceleration A, now the graph of the velocity is a linear graph with slope equal to A.

So this situation can be represent this with a piecewise function:

V(t) = c -----> if t < t0

V(t) = c + A*t -----> if t ≥ t0

So the answer is yes, we can.
