Explain how you find ordered-pair solutions of the equation 3x – 5y = 15, and then find two such solutions.'

1 answer:

5 0

The constant on the right is divisible by the coefficients on the left, so two solutions are
(x, y) = (5, 0) or (0, -3)

The slope of the line is 3/5, so increaing y by 3 and x by 5 will result in another solution. One general parametric solution is then
x = 5n
y = 3n-3
_____
Integer values of n will result in integer solutions. Any value of n will yield numbers that satisfy the equation.

In general, the extended Euclidean algorithm can be used to find integer solutions. Then adding multiples of some number n to y and x in the ratio of the slope of the line will yield other solutions.

1. To find the length of the edge, you will divide the total distance of 36 cm between the 4 edges that are shown.

36/4 = 9 cm per edge.

2. To find the surface area, find the area of one square (9 cm x 9 cm = 81 square cm), and multiply it by 6.

81 square cm x 6 = 486 square cm

486 square cm is the surface area.

A football is kicked from the ground and follows the graph of the function y = –t2 + 3t, where y represents height and t represe

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The height of the objects are the same after 2 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate at which time both objects have the same height we need to find the value of t that makes both equations equal. Therefore:

$-t^2 + 3t = -t + 4\\t^2 - 3t - t + 4 = 0\\t^2 - 4t + 4 = 0\\t_{1,2} = \frac{-(-4) \pm \sqrt{(-4)^2 - 4*1*4}}{2*1} = \frac{4 \pm \sqrt{16 - 16}}{2}\\t_{1,2} = \frac{4}{2} = 2$

The height of the objects are the same after 2 seconds.

Solve for x please, will give braknliest

kow [346]

Answer: The answer should be 72

Explanation: Triangles add up to 180. The two bottom points are the same. So you would take 180 and subtract it by 36. That would give you 144. You would then take 144 and divide it by 2, because the two angles are the same and your only trying to find one.
