Solve the system of equations. −2x+5y =−35 7x+2y =25

Otrada [13]

Answer:

The equations have one solution at (5, -5).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a system of equations:

$\displaystyle{\left \{ {{-2x+5y=-35} \atop {7x+2y=25}} \right.}$

This system of equations can be solved in three different ways:

Graphing the equations (method used)
Substituting values into the equations
Eliminating variables from the equations

Graphing the Equations

We need to solve each equation and place it in slope-intercept form first. Slope-intercept form is $\text{y = mx + b}$ .

Equation 1 is $-2x+5y = -35$ . We need to isolate y.

$\displaystyle{-2x + 5y = -35}\\\\5y = 2x - 35\\\\\frac{5y}{5} = \frac{2x - 35}{5}\\\\y = \frac{2}{5}x - 7$

Equation 1 is now $y=\frac{2}{5}x-7$ .

Equation 2 also needs y to be isolated.

$\displaystyle{7x+2y=25}\\\\2y=-7x+25\\\\\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{-7x+25}{2}\\\\y = -\frac{7}{2}x + \frac{25}{2}$

Equation 2 is now $y=-\frac{7}{2}x+\frac{25}{2}$ .

Now, we can graph both of these using a data table and plotting points on the graph. If the two lines intersect at a point, this is a solution for the system of equations.

The table below has unsolved y-values - we need to insert the value of x and solve for y and input these values in the table.

$\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2} \textbf{x} & \textbf{y} \\ \cline{1-2} 0 & a \\ \cline{1-2} 1 & b \\ \cline{1-2} 2 & c \\ \cline{1-2} 3 & d \\ \cline{1-2} 4 & e \\ \cline{1-2} 5 & f \\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}$

$\bullet \ \text{For x = 0,}$

$\displaystyle{y = \frac{2}{5}(0) - 7}\\\\y = 0 - 7\\\\y = -7$

$\bullet \ \text{For x = 1,}$

$\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(1)-7}\\\\y=\frac{2}{5}-7\\\\y = -\frac{33}{5}$

$\bullet \ \text{For x = 2,}$

$\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(2)-7}\\\\y = \frac{4}{5}-7\\\\y = -\frac{31}{5}$

$\bullet \ \text{For x = 3,}$

$\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(3)-7}\\\\y= \frac{6}{5}-7\\\\y=-\frac{29}{5}$

$\bullet \ \text{For x = 4,}$

$\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(4)-7}\\\\y = \frac{8}{5}-7\\\\y=-\frac{27}{5}$

$\bullet \ \text{For x = 5,}$

$\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(5)-7}\\\\y=2-7\\\\y=-5$

Now, we can place these values in our table.

As we can see in our table, the rate of decrease is $-\frac{2}{5}$ . In case we need to determine more values, we can easily either replace x with a new value in the equation or just subtract $-\frac{2}{5}$ from the previous value.

For Equation 2, we need to use the same process. Equation 2 has been resolved to be $y=-\frac{7}{2}x+\frac{25}{2}$ . Therefore, we just use the same process as before to solve for the values.

$\bullet \ \text{For x = 0,}$

$\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(0)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = 0 + \frac{25}{2}\\\\y = \frac{25}{2}$

$\bullet \ \text{For x = 1,}$

$\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(1)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = -\frac{7}{2} + \frac{25}{2}\\\\y = 9$

$\bullet \ \text{For x = 2,}$

$\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(2)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = -7+\frac{25}{2}\\\\y = \frac{11}{2}$

$\bullet \ \text{For x = 3,}$

$\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(3)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = -\frac{21}{2}+\frac{25}{2}\\\\y = 2$

$\bullet \ \text{For x = 4,}$

$\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(4)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y=-14+\frac{25}{2}\\\\y = -\frac{3}{2}$

$\bullet \ \text{For x = 5,}$

$\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(5)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = -\frac{35}{2}+\frac{25}{2}\\\\y = -5$

And now, we place these values into the table.

$\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2} \textbf{x} & \textbf{y} \\ \cline{1-2} 0 & 25/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 1 & 9 \\ \cline{1-2} 2 & 11/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 3 & 2 \\ \cline{1-2} 4 & -3/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 5 & -5 \\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}$

When we compare our two tables, we can see that we have one similarity - the points are the same at x = 5.

Equation 1 Equation 2

$\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2} \textbf{x} & \textbf{y} \\ \cline{1-2} 0 & -7 \\ \cline{1-2} 1 & -33/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 2 & -31/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 3 & -29/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 4 & -27/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 5 & -5 \\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}$ $\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2} \textbf{x} & \textbf{y} \\ \cline{1-2} 0 & 25/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 1 & 9 \\ \cline{1-2} 2 & 11/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 3 & 2 \\ \cline{1-2} 4 & -3/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 5 & -5 \\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}$

Therefore, using this data, we have one solution at (5, -5).

A store has 1173 pairs of socks. the socks are sold in packs of 4 pairs. how many packs of socks can the store sell?

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

293 packs is the maximum the store can sell.

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the number of packs that can be made with 4 pairs of socks.

(1173 pairs)/(4 pairs/pack) = 293.25 packs

We can't sell 0.25 pack (1 pair of socks), so drop that fraction to yield 293 full packs. Donate the spare pair, so to speak, to the local IRS agent.

Find two consecutive positive integers such that the sum of their squares is 421 .

maria [59]

We assume the two numbers are x and (x+1)
so x^2+(x+1)^2=421
x^2+(x^2+2x+1)=421
2x^2+2x-420=0
According to the formula of quadratic
x=14 or-15
cuz we know the two numbers are integers
so x=14
therefore the other number is 15
To make sure that's correct
14^2+15^2=421

Hope that helps you!!

Roland says the number of cups of iced tea t depends on the number of tea bags b. He says the equation represents the relationsh

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

I think Roland is correct in his statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Roland says the number of cups of iced tea t depends on the number of tea bags b and he says the equation represents the relationship between the number of tea bags b and the cups of iced tea $t = \frac{b}{1.5}$ .

I think Roland is correct in his statement and this is because here t is a function of b i.e. t = f(b) and hence, the number of cups of iced tea t depends on the number of tea bags b. (Answer)
