21 cars, 32 motorcycles.
create a system of equations using x for cars and y for motorcycles.
\left \{ {{x+y=53} \atop {4x+2y=148}} \right.
multiply the top equation by 2 to prepare for elimination method
\left \{ {{2x+2y=106} \atop {4x+2y=148}} \right.
subtract terms
\left \{ {{2x+2y=106} \atop {-4x-2y=-148}} \right.  = (-2x = -42)
divide both sides by negative 2 to solve for x
x =21
plug in x  into original equation to solve for y.
21 + y = 53
subtract both sides by 21
y=32

Use complete sentences to describe how simplifying expressions with multiple logarithms makes evaluating expressions less compli
Andrej [43]
To give you an idea about logarithm, it is the opposite of exponents. Exponents are the repeated multiplication of a number. It is represented by the formula of a^n where a is the number to be repeated and n is the number of times the number is being multiplies by itself. Also include the sign of the number, no matter how it is multiplied, it is still important. In this problem, you have 4 as the repeated number. You can see that it is multiplied by itself by two times. So you have (-4)^2.

Solve y" + y = tet, y(0) = 0, y'(0) = 0 using Laplace transforms.
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

The solution of the diferential equation is:

y(t)=\frac{1}{2}cos(t)- \frac{1}{2}e^{t}+\frac{t}{2} e^{t}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y" + y = te^{t}; y(0) = 0 ; y'(0) = 0

We need to use the Laplace transform to solve it.

ℒ[y" + y]=ℒ[te^{t}]

ℒ[y"]+ℒ[y]=ℒ[te^{t}]

By using the Table of Laplace Transform we get:

ℒ[y"]=s²·ℒ[y]+s·y(0)-y'(0)=s²·Y(s)

ℒ[y]=Y(s)

ℒ[te^{t}]=\frac{1}{(s-1)^{2}}

So, the transformation is equal to:

s²·Y(s)+Y(s)=\frac{1}{(s-1)^{2}}

(s²+1)·Y(s)=\frac{1}{(s-1)^{2}}

Y(s)=\frac{1}{(s^{2}+1)(s-1)^{2}}

To be able to separate in terms, we use the partial fraction method:

\frac{1}{(s^{2}+1)(s-1)^{2}}=\frac{As+B}{s^{2}+1} +\frac{C}{s-1}+\frac{D}{(s-1)^2}

1=(As+B)(s-1)² + C(s-1)(s²+1)+ D(s²+1)

The equation is reduced to:

1=s³(A+C)+s²(B-2A-C+D)+s(A-2B+C)+(B+D-C)

With the previous equation we can make an equation system of 4 variables.

The system is given by:

A+C=0

B-2A-C+D=0

A-2B+C=0

B+D-C=1

The solution of the system is:

A=1/2 ; B=0 ; C=-1/2 ; D=1/2

Therefore, Y(s) is equal to:

Y(s)=\frac{s}{2(s^{2} +1)} -\frac{1}{2(s-1)} +\frac{1}{2(s-1)^{2}}

By using the inverse of the Laplace transform:

ℒ⁻¹[Y(s)]=ℒ⁻¹[\frac{s}{2(s^{2} +1)}]-ℒ⁻¹[\frac{1}{2(s-1)}]+ℒ⁻¹[\frac{1}{2(s-1)^{2}}]

y(t)=\frac{1}{2}cos(t)- \frac{1}{2}e^{t}+\frac{t}{2} e^{t}
