Answer:

p = - \frac{5}{3}, p = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1 - | 3p + 1 | = - 3 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

- | 3p + 1 | = - 4 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

| 3p + 1 | = 4

The absolute value function always returns a positive value, however, the expression inside can be positive or negative, thus

3p + 1 = 4 OR - (3p + 1) = 4

Subtract 1 from both sides

3p = 3 ( divide both sides by 3 )

p = 1

OR

- (3p + 1) = 4, that is

- 3p - 1 = 4 ( add 1 to both sides )

- 3p = 5 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

p = - \frac{5}{3}

As a check

Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions

p = 1 : 1 - | 3 + 1 | = 1 - |4| = 1 - 4 = - 3 ← true

p = - \frac{5}{3} : 1 - | - 5 + 1 | = 1 - | - 4 | = 1 - 4 = - 3 ← true

Thus the solutions are p = 1, p = - \frac{5}{3}

Answer:

So ofc it's third

Step-by-step explanation:

You'll need to use the Pythagorean theorem:

a²+b²=c²

36² + 15² = c²

1296 + 225 = c²

1521 = c²

\sqrt{x} 1521\\ = 39

Graph and solve the system <br><br> Y=-3x+3<br> Y=2x-7
guajiro [1.7K]
An equation of the form y=ax+b, where a and b are constants; y and x are variable, is called a linear equation.

They are called "linear" because if we draw all the solutions of such an equation, they form a line. 

This also means that it is enough to:
 
1. find to solutions 
2. plot them on the coordinate axis
3.join those 2 points

and all the solutions of the equation y=ax+b will be on that line.


Thus, to draw line y=-3x+3

let x=0, then y=3, so one solution is (0, 3)

let y=0, then x=1 so a second solution is (1, 0)

(remark we can pick x or y to be any value, then solve for the other)


to draw the second line y=2x-7

let x=0, then y=-7
let x=3, then y=-1


plot these points and join them as shown in the picture.


The solution of the system is the point where the lines intersect, which is
 (2, -3)

Which of the following equations listed below has a radius of 3?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

WE need to convert the given equations  into the standard form

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2 where r = the radius.

x^2 + y^2 + 12x - 20y+ 132 = 0

(x + 6)^2 - 36 + (y - 10)^2 - 100 = -132

(x + 6)^2 + (y - 10)^2 = -132 + 36 + 100 = 4

giving a radius of 2

x^2 + y^2 + 12x - 20y + 55 = 0

will give a right hand side of -55 + 36 + 100 = 81  giving radius 9.

x^2 + y^2 - 12x+ 20y + 127 = 0

- gives right hand side of -127 + 36 + 100 = 9 giving a radius of 3.

The Royal Fruit Company produces two types of fruit drinks. The first type is 60% pure fruit juice, and the second type is 85% p
andrew11 [14]

Answer: There are 32 pints of first type and 128 pints of second type in mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Percentage of pure fruit juice in first type = 60%

Percentage of pure fruit juice in second type = 85%

Percentage of pure fruit juice in mixture = 80%

We will use "Mixture and Allegation" to find the ratio of first and second type in mixture:

          First type          Second type

               60%                    85%

                              80%

------------------------------------------------------------------------

     85-80               :              80-60

       5%                  :                 20%

        1                     :                   4

so, the ratio of first and second type is 1:4.

Total number of pints of mixture = 160

Number of pints of mixture of  first type in mixture  is given by

\dfrac{1}{5}\times 160\\\\=32\ pints

Number of pints of mixture of second type in mixture is given by

\dfrac{4}{5}\times 160\\\\=4\times 32\\\\=128\ pints

Hence, there are 32 pints of first type and 128 pints of second type in mixture.
