Answer: The weight of the iceberg at the end of the day will be 449,100 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation: The question is solved by first calculating what the loss of weight is during the day. The question indicates that it will lose .2%. In order to calculate the loss you need to multiply 450,000 x .002, which equals 900. Next, we subtract the weight loss from the original weight to determine the end of day weight. 450,000 - 900 = 449,100 lbs.

Answer: 449,100 lb.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The weight of iceberg = 450,000 lb

The percentage of weight iceberg loses during the day = 0.2%=0.002

Now, the decrease in weight of iceberg at the end of the day = $0.002\times 450000=900\ lb$

Therefore, the new weight of iceberg at the end of the day = $450000-900=449,100\ lb$

Y=-2x+2 Y=-2x-2 state the solution

Arisa [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Y=-2x+2.....(1)

Y=-2x-2.....(2)

Subtracting (1) from (2)

Y - Y = -2x - (-2x) -2 - 2

O = -2x + 2x - 4

O = 0 - 4

Hence it as no solution the the two variables tend to zero

I’m stuck on this problem

slavikrds [6]

The value of the f(-8) from the given f(x) is 1/53.

According to the statement

we have given that the value of f(x) and with the value of this we hav eto find the value of f(-8).

So, For this purpose,

The given value of f(x) :

The function f(x) is

f(x) = 1 / x^2 -11

Now we find the value of the f(-8) then

For this put Put x is -8 in the f(x) then the equation become

f(x) = 1 / x^2 -11

f(-8) = 1 / (-8)^2 -11

f(-8) = 1 / 64 -11

f(-8) = 1 / 53.

here the value becomes 1/53.

So, The value of the f(-8) from the given f(x) is 1/53.

Answer:

A system of the equation of a circle and a linear equation

A system of the equation of a parabola and a linear equation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us verify our answer

A system of the equation of a circle and a linear equation

Let an equation of a circle as $x^2+ y^2 = 1$ ..........(1)

Let a liner equation Y = x ............(2)

substitute (2) in (1)

$x^2 + x^2 = 1\\2x^2 = 1\\$

$x^2 = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } \\x = +\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } , -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }$ so Y = $+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } , -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }$

so the two solution are ( $(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } ,\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }) (-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }, -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }$ )

A system of the equation of a parabola and a linear equation

Let equation of Parabola be $y^2 = x$

and linear equation y = x

substitute

$x^2 = x\\x^2 - x= 0\\x(x-1) = \\x = 0 , 1$

Y = 0,1

so the two solutions will be (0,0) and (1,1)
