Answer:

(- 2, - 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x - 3y = - 1 → (1)

x + 4y = - 6 → (2)

Rearrange (2) expressing x in terms of y by subtracting 4y from both sides

x = - 6 - 4y → (3)

Substitute x = - 6 - 4y into (1)

2(- 6 - 4y) - 3y = - 1 ← distribute and simplify left side

- 12 - 8y - 3y = - 1

- 12 - 11y = - 1 ( add 12 to both sides )

- 11y = 11 ( divide both sides by - 11 )

y = - 1

Substitute y = - 1 into (3) for corresponding value of x

x = - 6 - 4(- 1) = - 6 + 4 = - 2

Solution is (- 2, - 1 )

* The addition property says if A=B, then A+C=B+C. The substitution property further says if C=D, then A+C=B+D (D can be substituted for C). IMO, both properties are needed together to get from A=B and C=D to A+B=C+D.

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

200 p²-12028p+180096=0

50 p-3007 p +45024=0

$p=\frac{3007 \pm\sqrt{(-3007)^2-4*50*45024} }{2*50} \\=\frac{3007 \pm \sqrt{9042049-9004800} }{100} \\=\frac{3007 \pm \sqrt{37249} }{100} \\=\frac{ 3007 \pm193}{100} \\p=32,28.14$

The spending limit on John's credit card is given by the function f(t) = 15,000 + 1.57, where x is his monthly income. 1-13) $60

coldgirl [10]

1.
"The spending limit on John’s credit card is given by the function f(x)=15,000+1.5x"

means that if the monthly income of John is $ 5,000 ,he can spend at most

f(5,000)=15,000+1.5*5,000=15,000+ 7,500=22, 500 (dollars)

Or for example

if Johns monthly income is $8,000, then he can spend at most

f(8,000)=15,000+1.5*8,000=15,000+ 12,000=27,000 (dollars)

2.
Now, assume that the maximum amount that John can spend is y.

Then, y=15,000+1.5x

we can express x, the monthly income, in terms of y by isolating x:

y=15,000+1.5x

1.5x = y-15,000
X=y-15,000/1.5

thus, in functional notation, x, the monthly income, is a function , say g, of variable y, the max amount:
X=g(y) y-15000/1.5
since we generally use the letter x for the variable of a function, we write g again as:

G (x) x-15000/1.5
tells us that if the maximum amount that John can spend is 50,000 $, then his monthly income is 23,333 $.

3.

If John's limit is $60,000, his monthly income is
G(600,000)=60,000-15,000/ 1.5=45,000/1.5 =30,000

dollars.

Answer: $ 30,000

Remark: g is called the inverse function of f, since it undoes what f does.

instead of g(x), we could use the notation
