4y-x=5+2y; 3x+7y=24 solve systen by using substitution

1 answer:

6 0

4y - x = 5 + 2y ..... (1)
3x + 7y = 24 ..... (2)

by grouping like terms in (1)
4y - x = 5 + 2y
4y - 2y - x = 5
-x + 2y = 5 ..... (1a)

by multiplying (1a) through by -3
(-3)(-x) + 2(-3)y = 5(-3)
3x - 6y = -15 ..... (1b)

by subtracting 1a from 2
3x -3x + 7y - (-6y) = 24 - (-15)
13y = 39
⇒ y = 3

by substituting y=3 into (2)
3x + 7(3) = 24
3x = 24 - 21
3x = 3
⇒ x = 1

∴ solution to the system is x=1 when y = 3

PLEASE HELP!!!

pogonyaev

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

Let $m$ be the number of mittens and $s$ be the number of scarves. Then we have the inequalities:

$s+m\leq 30.$ This says Nivyana and Ana cannot make more than 30 scarves

$50s+25m\geq 1000.$ This says that Nivyana and Ana have to earn at least $1000.

Part B:

The graph is attached.

Notice that the graphs of the inequalities are solid lines, this just means that the points on these lines included to the solutions of each inequality.

The darker shaded region and the solid lines bounding it, are the solutions to the inequalities because that's where the values common to both inequalities are found.

Part C:

From the graph we get two possible solutions:

15 scarves & 10 mittens

25 scarves & 5 mittens.

These two points lie on the solid lines that bound the darker shaded region (I picked those points to stress that the lines bounding the dark region are also solutions.)

Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form using y=mx+b

AnnZ [28]

It looks like it goes through (0,-3) and (1,2), so the gradient is (change in y)/(change in x) ->
(-3-2)/(0-1) = 5
So y=5x+b

Then as we know it passes the y axis at (0,-3) so b= -3

So we have y=5x-3

Determine the value of x

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

2√2

Step-by-step explanation:

By using trigonometry,

sin 45° = x/4

x = 4sin 45°

x = 2√2

By using Pythagorean theorem,

Since you know that it is an isosceles triangle and it's also a right-angled triangle,

4² = x² + x²

16 = 2x²

x² = 8

x = √8

= 2√2
