Answer:

Tiffany spent 1/5 of her money on peas.

Step-by-step explanation:

5/5 is the whole.

She spent 3/5 so now you only have 2/5 left.

1/2 of 2/5 is 1/5.

So she spent 1/5 of her money on peas.

Solve each system by substitution.<br> 5) 5x + 3y =-23<br> y = 4

docker41 [41]

Answer:

(- 7, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

5x + 3y = - 23 → (1)

y = 4 → (2)

Substitute y = 4 directly into (1_

5x + 3(4) = - 23, that is

5x + 12 = - 23 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

5x = - 35 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = - 7

Solution is (- 7, 4 )

A circle has centre (3,0) and radius 5. The line y = 2x + k intersects the circle in two points. Find the set

lara [203]

A circle with center $(3,0)$ and radius $5$ has equation

$(x-3)^2+y^2=25 \iff x^2 + y^2- 6 x = 16$

If we substitute $y=2x+k$ in this equation, we have

$x^2+(2x+k)^2-6x=16 \iff 5x^2+(4k-6)x+k^2-16=0$

This equation has two solutions (i.e. the line intersects the circle in two points) if and only if the determinant is greater than zero:

$\Delta=b^2-4ac=(4k-6)^2-4\cdot 5\cdot (k^2-16)>0$

The expression simplifies to

$-4 (k^2 + 12 k - 89)>0 \iff k^2 + 12 k - 89$

The solutions to the associated equation are

$k^2 + 12 k - 89=0 \iff k=-6\pm 5\sqrt{5}$

So, the parabola is negative between the two solutions:

$-6-5\sqrt{5}$
