Answer:

There were 210 downloads of the standard version.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of downloads of the standard version.

y is the number of downloads of the high-quality version.

The size of the standard version is 2.6 megabytes (MB). The size of the high-quality version is 4.2 MB. The total size downloaded for the two versions was 4074 MB.

This means that:

$2.6x + 4.2y = 4074$

Yesterday, the high-quality version was downloaded four times as often as the standard version.

This means that $y = 4x$

How many downloads of the standard version were there?

This is x.

$2.6x + 4.2y = 4074$

Since $y = 4x$

$2.6x + 4.2*4x = 4074$

$19.4x = 4074$

$x = \frac{4074}{19.4}$

$x = 210$

There were 210 downloads of the standard version.

Distance traveled varies jointly as rate and time. If Fred travels 135 miles in 3 hours at a rate of 45 mi/hr, find the rate at

Rudiy27

From the relation, d is joint proportionaly with r and t.
Thus,d = krt.

Using the first set of given, we could calculate for k.135 = k(45)(3)k = 1

Using the computed value of k.d = krtr = d/ktr = (189)/(1)(3.5) = 54 mph.

I need help bad! I need help with the last question!

MAVERICK [17]

Use the fact that 1 axe head = 3.20 trade value.
Let N denote number of axe heads needed to trade for a trade gun.
3.20×N=120.00
》 N=120/3.2 which will give number of axe heads needed. Round to the nearest ones place if you must.

Solve for each system of equations by substitution or elimination.

Tems11 [23]

QUESTION 1

The given system of equations are:

$y=x^2+5x+1$

$y=x^2+2x+1$

We equate the two equations to get:

$x^2+5x+1 =x^2+2x+1$

$x^2 - {x}^{2} + 5x - 2x = 1 - 1$

$3x = 0$

$x = 0$

When x=0,

$y=0^2+2(0)+1 = 1$

The solution is (0,1)

QUESTION 2

The given equations are:

$y=x^2-2x - 1$

and

$y= -x^2-2x-1$

We equate both equations to get:

$x^2-2x - 1 = -x^2-2x-1$

Group similar terms,

$x^2 + {x}^{2} -2x + 2x= -1 + 1$

$2 {x}^{2} = 0$

$x = 0$

We put x=0 into any of the equations to find y.

$y= -0^2-2(0)-1 = - 1$

The solution is (0,-1).

QUESTION 3

The given equations are:

$y=x^2+2x+1$

and

$y=x^2+2x-1$

We equate both equations:

$x^2+2x+1 = x^2+2x-1$

Group similar terms:

$x^2 -x^2+2x = -1 - 1$

$0 = -2$

This is not true.

Hence the system has no solution.
