Problema de capacidades Una empresa aceitera ha envasado 3000 litros de aceite en 1200 botellas de dos y de cinco litros. ¿Cuánt
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Hay 200 botellas de 5 litros y 1000 botellas de 2 litros.

Step-by-step explanation:

Un sistema de ecuaciones lineales es un conjunto de dos o más ecuaciones de primer grado, en el cual se relacionan dos o más incógnitas.

Resolver un sistema de ecuaciones consiste en encontrar el valor de cada incógnita para que se cumplan todas las ecuaciones del sistema.

En este caso, las variables a calcular son:

  • x= cantidad de botellas de 2 litros.
  • y= cantidad de botellas de 5 litros.

Una empresa aceitera ha envasado 3000 litros de aceite en 1200 botellas de dos y de cinco litros. Entonces es posible plantear el siguiente sistema de ecuaciones:

\left \{ {{2*x+5*y=3000} \atop {x+y=1200}} \right.

Existen varios métodos para resolver un sistema de ecuaciones. Resolviendo por el método de sustitución, que consiste en despejar o aislar una de las incógnitas y sustituir su expresión en la otra ecuación, despejas x de la segunda ecuación:

x= 1200 - y

Sustituyendo la expresión en la primer ecuación:

2*(1200 - y) + 5*y=3000

Resolviendo se obtiene:

2*1200 - 2*y + 5*y= 3000

2400 +3*y= 3000

3*y= 3000 - 2400

3*y= 600

y= 600÷3

y= 200

Reemplazando en la expresión x= 1200 - y:

x= 1200 - y

x=1200 -200

x= 1000

What are one of the four regions into which a coordinate plane is separated is called
Alexandra [31]

Well, I suppose you could break up the coordinate plane
in millions of different ways.

If you take each region to be all the space that is not crossed
by an axis, then you have the four Quadrants.

Which statements can be concluded from the diagram and used to prove that the triangles are similar by the SAS similarity theore
velikii [3]

Answer:

RS/VU=ST/UT and ∠S≅∠U

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The <u>Side-Angle-Side Similarity Theorem </u>states that: If two sides in one triangle are proportional to two sides in another triangle and the included angle in both are congruent, then the two triangles are similar

In this problem the included angle is

∠S≅∠U

therefore

side RS must be proportional to side VU  and side ST must be proportional to side UT

so

RS/VU=ST/UT

<em>Verify</em>

substitute the given values

12/6=16/8

2=2 -----> is true

therefore

The two sides are proportional
