Answer:
D (7, 0.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations must be interpreted to be ...
A graph shows the solution to be (7, 0.5), matching selection D.
___
You can add the two equations together to get ...
(y) +(y) = (-1/2x +4) + (1/2x -3)
2y = 1 . . . . . simplify
y = 1/2 . . . . .divide by 2
It can be convenient to use the second equation to find x.
1/2 = 1/2x - 3
1 = x - 6 . . . . . . multiply by 2
7 = x . . . . . . . . . add 6
The solution is (x, y) = (7, 0.5). . . . . matches selection D.
Amount of fuel in the tank before the story begins . . . . . zero.
Total amount poured in . . . . . 3/4 gallon.
Total amount burned:
on Friday . . . . . 1/4 gallon
on Sunday . . . . 1/4 gallon
Total used . . 1/2 gallon .
Amount remaining in the tank on Monday:
(3/4 gallon in) - (1/2 gallon burned) = 1/4 gallon left.
==> NOT empty
The tank would have been empty on Monday IF Becky
had poured in only 1/2 gallon, instead of 3/4 of a gallon
before the first flakes began to fly.
The positions of the sun, earth and shooting star form a right angled triangle, where distance between earth and sun is 'y', and the angle 'x°' is given
Now, in a right angled triangle using trigonometry, we can determine a side of the triangle is one of the sides and one of the angles is known
Here, if we use cos x =
we can determine the distance between the shooting star and the sun. This can be done because we know that the base is 'y', the angle is x° and the hypotenuse represents the distance between the sun and the shooting star
Note: cos values for each x are definite.
