Answer:

y = 1.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : 5x+2y=7  and - 2x+6=9.

To find : Solve the following system of equations. Enter the y-coordinate of the solution. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Solution : We have given

5x + 2y = 7 --------(1)

- 2x + 6y = 9 -------(2).

To make the y coefficient same multiply the equation 1 by 3.

15 x + 6y = 21 .

(+)-2x +(-) 6y = (-)9 .

______________ ( On subtracting both the equations )

17 x + 0  = 12 .

17 x = 12 .

On dividing both sides by 17

x = \frac{12}{17}.

x = 0.705

Plug x = 0.705 in equation 2 .

- 2 ( 0.705) + 6y = 9.

-1.41 + 6y = 9 .

On adding both sides by 1.41.

6y = 9 + 1.41

6 y = 10. 41

On dividing both sides by 6.

y =  \frac{10.41}{6}.

y = 1.735.

Nearest tenth = 1.7

Therefore,  y = 1.7.

5x + 2y = 7....multiply by -3
-2x + 6y = 9
----------------
-15x - 6y = -21 (result of multiplying by -3)
-2x + 6y = 9
---------------add
-17x = - 12
x = 12/17 or 0.7

5x + 2y = 7
5(12/17) + 2y = 7
60/17 + 2y = 7
2y = 7 - 60/17
2y = 119/17 - 60/17
2y = 59/17
y = 59/17 * 1/2
y = 59/34 or 1.7 when rounded <====

When a number is divided by 5 the answer is 3 remainder 4, what is that number?
skelet666 [1.2K]

We know that 5 fits entirely into our number three times, and then there's a remainder of 4.

If 5 fits three times exactly, it means that our number is at least 15 (5x3).

From here, we have a remainder of 4, which leads to 15+4=19

American Vending (AV) supplies vended food to a large university. Because students often kick the machines out of anger and frus
aev [14]

Answer:

case 2 with two workers is the optimal decision.

Step-by-step explanation:

Case 1—One worker:A= 3/hour Poisson, ¡x =5/hour exponential The average number of machines in the system isL = - 3. = 4 = lJr machines' ix-A 5 - 3 2 2Downtime cost is $25 X 1.5 = $37.50 per hour; repair cost is $4.00 per hour; and total cost per hour for 1worker is $37.50 + $4.00

= $41.50.Downtime (1.5 X $25) = $37.50 Labor (1 worker X $4) = 4.00

$41.50

Case 2—Two workers: K = 3, pl= 7L= r= = 0.75 machine1 p. -A 7 - 3Downtime (0.75 X $25) = S J 8.75Labor (2 workers X S4.00) = 8.00S26.75Case III—Three workers:A= 3, p= 8L= ——r = 5- ^= § = 0.60 machinepi -A 8 - 3 5Downtime (0.60 X $25) = $15.00 Labor (3 workers X $4) = 12.00 $27.00

Comparing the costs for one, two, three workers, we see that case 2 with two workers is the optimal decision.
