Answer:

x = 15.65

y = 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find the equation for x and y

Equation for x is given as

x² = 7( 7+28) ..........Equation 1

14(14 + y) = x²........ Equation 2

Solving for Equation 1

x² = 7( 7+28)

x² = 7(35)

x² = 245

x = √245

x = 15.65

From Equation 1 , x² has been determined to be 245

Therefore we substitute 245 for y in Equation 2

14(14 + y) = x²........ Equation 2

14(14 + y) = 245

196 + 14y = 245

14y = 245 - 196

14y = 49

y = 49 ÷ 14

y = 3.5

If p+q has the value that is exactly 1/3 less than p what is the value of q

solmaris [256]

Answer:

q = - $\frac{1}{3}$ p

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{3}$ less than p = $\frac{2}{3}$ p

Thus

p + q = $\frac{2}{3}$ p ( multiply through by 3 to clear the fraction )

3p + 3q = 2p ( subtract 3p from both sides )

3q = - p ( divide both sides by 3 )

q = - $\frac{1}{3}$ p

Solve the system of equations

Nadya [2.5K]

So we have the equations:

y - 4x = 2 --- equation 1

5y - 2x = 1 --- equation 2

(equation 2) * 2

10y - 4x = 2 --- equation 3

(equation 2) - (equation 3)

-9y = 0 so y= 0 and thus x = -1/2

Hope that helps!

In multiple regression analysis, the word linear in the term "general linear model" refers to the fact that β0, β1, . . ., βp al

Sophie [7]

Answer:

d. 1

Step-by-step explanation:

it is called linear because β0, β1, . . ., βp all have their exponents to be 1. A multiple linear regression is a type of regression which has more than one independent variable. it tells us the existing relationship between 2 or more of these independent variables on the dependent variable. for it to be regarded to be linear, it is very important that the exponents be equal to 1. else it could be quadratic.

Can someone please help me with this math problem? ASAP. It’s a system of equations word problem. Can you please do the work whe

Answer: A van can carry 18 students and a bus can carry 59 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of students that a van can carry.

Let y represent the number of students that a bus can carry.

The Senior class at high school A rented and filled one van and 6 buses with 372 students. This means that the number of students that entered the van is x × 1 = x.

Also, the number of students that entered the buses is y × 6 = 6y. Therefore,

x + 6y = 372 - - - - - - - - - - - - -1

The Senior class at high school B rented and filled 4 vans and 12 buses with 780 students. This means that the number of students that entered the vans is x × 4 = 4x.

Also, the number of students that entered the buses is y × 12 = 12y. Therefore,

4x + 12y = 780 - - - - - - - - - - - - -2

We would eliminate x by multiplying equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 1. It becomes

4x + 24y = 1488 - - - - - - - - - - - - -3

4x + 12y = 780 - - - - - - - - - - - - -4

Subtracting equation 4 from equation 3, it becomes

12y = 708

y = 708/12

y = 59

Substituting y = 59 into equation 1, it becomes

x + 6 × 59 = 372

x + 354 = 372

x = 372 - 354

x = 18
