Mathematics
1 answer:
Ghella [55]3 years ago

Answer:

A) The solution set is (6,-8).

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - y = 26

-3x       - 3x        Subtract 3x from both sides

-y = -3x + 26     Divide both sides by -1

y = 3x - 26

Now plug this into 7x + 8y = -22 to solve for x

7x + 8(3x - 26) = -22        Distribute

7x + 24x - 208 = -22       Combine like terms

31x - 208 = -22

     + 208    + 208            Add 208 to both sides

31x = 186                           Divide both sides by 31

x  = 6

Plug this into y = 3x - 26 to solve for y

y = 3(6) - 26           Multiply

y = 18 - 26              Subtract

y = -8

Answer:

N(AUC∩B') = 121

The number of students that like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups or Snickers, but not Twix is 121

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represent snickers, B represent Twix and C represent Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.

Given;

N(A) = 150

N(B) = 204

N(C) = 206

N(A∩B) = 75

N(A∩C) = 100

N(B∩C) = 98

N(A∩B∩C) = 38

N(Total) = 500

How many students like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups or Snickers, but not Twix;

N(AUC∩B')

This can be derived by first finding;

N(AUC) = N(A) + N(C) - N(A∩C)

N(AUC) = 150+206-100 = 256

Also,

N(A∩B U B∩C) = N(A∩B) + N(B∩C) - N(A∩B∩C) = 75 + 98 - 38 = 135

N(AUC∩B') = N(AUC) - N(A∩B U B∩C) = 256-135 = 121

N(AUC∩B') = 121

The number of students that like Reese's Peanut Butter Cups or Snickers, but not Twix is 121

See attached venn diagram for clarity.

Two triangles have altitudes of equal length. if the areas of these triangles have a ratio of 3:4 then the bases of the triangle
MatroZZZ [7]
Answer:
3/4
Area of the small triangle/Area of larger triangle=3/4

Area of the small triangle/Area of larger triangle=(1/2×base of small triangle×length)/(1/2×base of larger triangle×height)
3/4=(1/2×base of small triangle×height)/(1/2×base of larger triangle×height)
Since the length of the triangle are equal the base ratio of the two triangles is the same as area ratio.
