Answer:
A) 5x-7y=58
B) y=-x+2 we rearrange B) into
B) x + y = 2 then we multiply B) by -5
B) -5x -5y = -10 adding this to A)
A) 5x -7y = 58 we get
-12y = 48
y = -4
B) x + y = 2
x = 2 +4
x = 6

Answer:
7.92 years
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find t such that ...
3 = 2^(t/5)
where 2^(t/5) is the annual multiplier when doubling time is 5 years.
Taking logs, we have ...
log(3) = (t/5)log(2)
t = 5·log(3)/log(2) ≈ 7.92 . . . years
It will take about 7.92 years for the population to triple.
1/2 gallon of paint covers 1/12 of a wall
, 12 times as much paint will cover 12 times the area you can solve this by 12*1/2=6.
Answer:
x = 21 units
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>The tangent squared is equal to the secant's total length multiplied by the secant's length without the part inside the circle.</em>
So here, that will look like: <em>36² = 27 * (27 + x)</em>
Expansion and multiplication gives us: <em>1296 = 729 + 27x</em>
Subtract from both sides: <em>567 = 27x</em>
Divide from both sides: x = 21.
