Answer:

Part a) The solution is the ordered pair (6,10)

Part b) The solutions are the ordered pairs (7,3) and (15,1.4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) we have

\frac{x}{2}-\frac{y}{5}=1 ----> equation A

y-\frac{x}{3}=8 ----> equation B

Multiply equation A by 10 both sides to remove the fractions

5x-2y=10 ----> equation C

isolate the variable y in equation B

y=\frac{x}{3}+8 ----> equation D

we have the system of equations

5x-2y=10 ----> equation C

y=\frac{x}{3}+8 ----> equation D

Solve the system by substitution

substitute equation D in equation C

5x-2(\frac{x}{3}+8)=10

solve for x

5x-\frac{2x}{3}-16=10

Multiply by 3 both sides

15x-2x-48=30

15x-2x=48+30

Combine like terms

13x=78

x=6

<em>Find the value of y</em>

y=\frac{x}{3}+8

y=\frac{6}{3}+8

y=10

The solution is the ordered pair (6,10)

Part b) we have

xy=21 ---> equation A

x+5y=22 ----> equation B

isolate the variable x in the equation B

x=22-5y ----> equation C

substitute equation C in equation A

(22-5y)y=21

solve for y

22y-5y^2=21

5y^2-22y+21=0

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing

The solutions are y=1.4, y=3

see the attached figure

<em>Find the values of x</em>

For y=1.4

x=22-5(1.4)=15

For y=3

x=22-5(3)=7

therefore

The solutions are the ordered pairs (7,3) and (15,1.4)

Organisms A and B start out with the same population size. Organism A's population doubles every day. After 5 days, the populati
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The number of times organism B's population is larger than organism A's population after 8 days is 32 times

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of organism A doubles every day, geometrically as follows

a, a·r, a·r²

Where;

r = 2

The population after 5 days, is therefore;

Pₐ₅ = = 32·a

The virus cuts the population in half for three days as follows;

The first of ta·2⁵ he three days = 32/2 = 16·a

The second of the three days = 16/2 = 8·a

After the third day, Pₐ = 8/2 = 8·a

The population growth of organism B is the same as the initial growth of organism A, therefore, the population, P₈ of organism B after 8 days is given as follows;

P₈ =  a·2⁸ = 256·a

Therefore, the number of times organism B's population is larger than organism A's population after 8 days is P₈/Pₐ = 256·a/8·a = 32 times

Which gives, the number of times organism B's population is larger than organism A's population after 8 days is 32 times.

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

x=2

HPT 3x+5y=6 (1) và 2x+y=4 (2)

Nhân phương trình (2) với 5 để hệ số y của 2 phương trình bằng nhau. Ta có:

(2)⇔ 10x+5y=20(3)

Trừ (3) cho (1), có: 7x+0y=14⇒x=2

Rasheed is contemplating whether to buy a membership for a trampoline park, which is $50 a year. As a
docker41 [41]

Answer: 28 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the cost for the trampoline park without a membership is equal to the price of the jump tickets per hour (12) multiplied by the number of hours (h).

Cost without membership= 12h

With the membership the price of each jump ticket has a 15% discount ( so, 100-15 =85% of the total price ). To calculate the cost for this case we have to add the cost of the membership 50, and multiply the cost of each jump ticket (12) by 0.85 (percentage in decimal form)

Cost with membership = 50 +12 (0.85) h

If both cost are equal:

50 +12 (0.85) h = 12 h

Solving for h

50+10.2h =12h

50= 12h-10.2h

50= 1.8h

50/1.8= h

27.78 =h

h =28 (rounded)

Please help!!!! Im so bad at math
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

-5.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(n) = 5n + 6

Just plug in  -11/5  for n:

f(-11/5) = 5 (-11/5) + 6

= -11 + 6

= -5.
