28 times 3 is 84. That is 5 too many wheels. If you take 5 tricycles of and replace them with 5 bikes you have 5 less wheels. This means Billy saw 5 bikes and 23 tricycles.

The side of the base of a square prism is decreasing at a rate of 7 kilometers per minute and the height of the prism is increas
Ber [7]

Answer:

dV = - 5.73*10⁹ m³/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Question: What is the rate of change of the volume of the prism at that instant (in cubic meters per second) ?

A function can be dependent on one or more variables. The change in the function due to a change in one o its variables is given by the functions derivative with respect to that variable. For functions that are composed of products of its variables, we may use the product rule to determine its derivative.

The volume of a square prism with base a and height h is given by

V = a²h

When the base and height are changing, we have

dV = 2ah(da/dt) +  a²(dh/dt)

Given

a = 4 Km

h = 9 Km

da/dt = - 7 Km/min

dh/dt = 10 Km/min

we have

dV = 2(4 Km)(9 Km)(- 7 Km/min) +  (4 Km)²(10 Km/min)

⇒   dV = - 504 Km³/min + 160 Km³/min = - 344 Km³/min

⇒   dV = - 5.73*10⁹ m³/s

14.What is the solution of the system?
Archy [21]

Answer:

14.  x=-2.5,  y = -7

15.  x=28  y = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

14.  Let's solve this system by elimination.  Multiply the first equation by -1.

-1*(4x-y)= -1*(- 3)

-4x +y = 3

Then add this to the second equation.

-4x+y = 3

6x-y= - 8

--------------

2x   = -5


Divide each side by 2

x = -2.5

We still need to find y

-4x+y =3

-4(-2.5) + y =3

10 +y =3

Subtract 10 from each side.

y = 3-10

y = -7


15.I will again use elimination to solve this system, because using substitution will give me fractions which are harder to work with.   I will elimiate the y variable.  Multiply the first equation by 11

11( 5x+6y)= 11*20

55x+66y = 220

Multiply the second equation by -6

-6(9x+11y)=32*(-6)

-54x-66y = -192


Add the modified equations together.

55x+66y = 220

-54x-66y = -192

---------------------------

x = 28

We still need to solve for y

5x+6y = 20

5*28 + 6y =20

140 + 6y = 20

Subtract 140 from each side

6y = -120

Divide by 6

y = -20

Write the equation of the line parallel to Y equals 2/3X +1 through the point (0,-4)  use slope intercept form
Andrew [12]

Writing the slope-intercept form of a linear equation, we have:

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Since parallel lines have the same slope, we can see that the slope of the line y = 2/3x + 1 is equal m = 2/3, so for our equation we also have m = 2/3.

Now, using the point (0, -4), we have:

\begin{gathered} y=\frac{2}{3}x+b \\ (0,-4)\colon \\ -4=\frac{2}{3}\cdot0+b \\ b+0=-4 \\ b=-4 \end{gathered}

So our equation is:

y=\frac{2}{3}x-4

y = 2/3x - 4

A line passes through (6, 3), (8, 4), and (n, -2). Find the value of n.
timurjin [86]

Answer:

n = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice how in the previous examples they all divide by 2? It is the same case here. So now the question is... "what" divided by "2" is "-2".

Let me show you:

n ÷ 2 = -2

if you know your integer math, you should know that...

-4 ÷2 = -2 (this is the correct equation)

I need halp puh-lease
kozerog [31]
The answer should be 6! all you have to do is plug the numbers into the equation!
it would be like this:
-1^2+3^2+(-1)-3
doing all of that would equal 6!
