In such type of questions, all that you are supposed to do is, use basic mathematics to eliminate any one of the given two variables. Check out the equations if in case you can multiply any of the given ones with a -1 and add the two equations,eliminating one of the variables.

Find the values of y = c(x) = for x = 0, 0.008, 0.027, 0.064, 0.125, 0.216, 0.343, 0.512, , 0.729, and 1.

kondaur [170]

c(x) is a function, then we will solve the problem for two different functions.

1. If $c(x)=\frac{x}{0.5}+x$

Then

$y=c(x)$

$y=\frac{x}{0.5}+x$

Using each of the values for x we have.

When x=0 the result is: $y=\frac{0}{0.5}+0=0$

When x=0.008 the result is: $y=\frac{0.008}{0.5}+0.008=0.016+0.008=0.024$

When x=0.027 the result is: $y=\frac{0.027}{0.5}+0.027=0.054+0.027=0.081$

When x=0.064 the result is: $y=\frac{0.064}{0.5}+0.064=0.128+0.064=0.192$

When x=0.125 the result is: $y=\frac{0.125}{0.5}+0.125=0.25+0.125=0.375$

When x=0.216 the result is: $y=\frac{0.216}{0.5}+0.216=0.432+0.216=0.648$

When x=0.343 the result is: $y=\frac{0.343}{0.5}+0.343=0.686+0.343=1.029$

When x=0.512 the result is: $y=\frac{0.512}{0.5}+0.512=1.024+0.512=1.536$

When x=0.729 the result is: $y=\frac{0.729}{0.5}+0.729=1.458+0.729=2.187$

When x=1 the result is: $y=\frac{1}{0.5}+1=2+1=3$

2. If $c(x)=sin(x)+2x$

Then

$y=c(x)$

$y=sin(x)+2x$

Using each of the values for x we have.

When x=0 the result is: $y=sin(0)+2(0)=0$

When x=0.008 the result is: $y=sin(0.008)+2(0.008)=0.000139+0.016=0.016139$

When x=0.027 the result is: $y=sin(0.027)+2(0.027)=0.000471+0.054=0.054471$

When x=0.064 the result is: $y=sin(0.064)+2(0.064)=0.001117+0.128=0.129117$

When x=0.125 the result is: $y=sin(0.125)+2(0.125)=0.002182+0.25=0.252182$

When x=0.216 the result is: $y=sin(0.216)+2(0.216)=0.003769+0.432=0.435769$

When x=0.343 the result is: $y=sin(0.343)+2(0.343)=0.005986+0.686=0.691986$

When x=0.512 the result is: $y=sin(0.512)+2(0.512)=0.008936+1.024=1.032936$

When x=0.729 the result is: $y=sin(0.729)+2(0.729)=0.012723+1.458=1.470723$

When x=1 the result is: $y=sin(1)+2(1)=0.017452+2=2.017452$

X + y = 152, 8.5x + 12y = 1,656 How many hats were sold?

Elodia [21]

Answer:

x = 48 and y = 104

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations are:

$x+y = 152\\8.5x+12y=1656$

From equation 1:

$x = 152-y$

Putting the value of y in equation 2

$8.5(152-y)+12y = 1656\\1292-8.5y+12y = 1656\\3.5y+1292 = 1656\\3.5y = 1656-1292\\3.5y = 364\\\frac{3.5y}{3.5} = \frac{364}{3.5}\\y = 104$

Now we have to put the value of y in one of the equation to find the value of x

Putting y = 104 in the first equation

$x+y = 152\\x+ 104 = 152\\x = 152-104\\x = 48$

Hence,

The solution of the system of equations is x = 48 and y = 104

The value of variable which was assumed for number of hats, is the total number of hats.
