Answer:

Part A:

x+y= 95

x = y+25

Part B : 35 minutes

Part C : No

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Part A :

Eric plays basketball and volleyball for a total of 95 minutes every day

x+y= 95

Where:

x =the number of minutes Eric plays basketball

y= the number of minutes he plays volleyball  

He plays basketball for 25 minutes longer than he plays volleyball.

x = y+25

System:

x+y= 95

x = y+25

  • Part B:

Replacing x=y+25 on the first equation:

(y+25) + y =95

Solving for Y

y+25+y =95

25+2y=95

2y=95-25

2y=70

y = 70/2

y = 35 minutes

Part C : No

if x = 35

x+y= 95

35+y =95

y= 95-35

y = 60 minutes

Replacing y=60 on the other equation:

x = y+25

35 = 60+25

35 ≠85

P and Q are two points on the line x - y + 1 = 0 and are at distance 5 from the origin. Find the area of the triangle OPQ. ​
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

P and Q are two points on the line x-y+1=0 and are at a distant of 5 units from the origin. Find the area of triangle POQ.

Step-by-step explanation:

P and Q are the intersection points of

x-y+1 = 0 and the circle x^2 + y^2 = 25

sub y = x+1 into the circle

x^2 + (x+1)^2 = 25

x^2 + x^2 + 2x + 1 - 25 = 0

x^2 + x - 12 = 0

(x+4)(x-3) = 0

x = 3 or x = -4

y = 4 or y = -3

so P(3,4) and Q(-4,3) are our two points

Height of triangle.

h = |0 - 0 + 1|/√2 = 1/√2

PQ = √( (-7)^2 + 1^2) = √50 = 5√2

area POQ = (1/2)(1/√2)(5√2) = 5/2 square units
