X + y = 24

Mathematics
1 answer:
Masja [62]3 years ago

Answer:

(10, 14)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this system let's use substitution:

Solve the first equation for x, obtaining x = 24 - y, and then substitute 24 - y for x in the second equation:

3(24 - y) + 5y = 100

Performing the indicated multiplication, we get:

72 - 3y + 5y = 100

Combining like terms results in 72 - 100 = -2y, or -28 = -2y

Thus, y must be 14.

If y = 14, then the first equation tells us that x = 10.

Check:  Is this true?  3(10) + 5(14) = 100  YES

The solution is (10, 14).

What was it about the questions on the best that you were supposed to compare to this solution?

For f(x)=3x+1 and g(x)=(x^2)-6, find (f+g)(x).
Anon25 [30]

f(x)=3x+1;\ g(x)=x^2-6\\\\(f+g)(x)=(3x+1)+(x^266)=3x+1+x^2-6=x^2+3x+(1-6)\\\\=\boxed{x^2+3x-5}

Answer:

Percent increase is 17.6%

We still have to pay 7.50 with the coupon

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent increase = (new- original)/original *100%

                             = (10-8.5)/8.5 * 100%

                             = 1.5/8.5 * 100%

                             = 17.6470588%

Round to the nearest tenth

                                 17.6%

This is an increase since the cost went up.

If we have 25% off, we still have to pay (100%-25%) = 75%

10 *.75 = 7.50

We still have to pay 7.50 with the coupon

How many
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:the answer is

Step-by-step explanation:

15/2 ÷ 3/4

Division of fractions hold the first fraction replaces ÷ with x then flip the second fraction

15/2 x 4/3

Multiply the tops 15x4 =60

Over the bottoms multiplied together 2x3=6

60/6=10

A 12 ft. rope is attached to the wall of a garage. A dog’s collar is attached to the end of the rope to allow him to safely stay
Zolol [24]

Since it's a wall, I'm guessing it will only have access to half the circle? Therefore:

<em>Circle area formula: </em>πr²

<em>Radius:</em> 12/2 = 6ft

<em>Our case:</em>

(π * 6²)/2 =

36π/2 =

18π = 56.55ft²
