Mathematics
1 answer:
tresset_1 [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 29

y = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Write 2 equations:

x + y = 42

x - y = 16

Isolate x in the first equation:

x = 42 - y

Substitute this in for x in the second equation:

42 - y - y = 16

42 - 2y = 16

solve for y:

-2y = -26

y = 13

Plug in 13 for y in either equation:

x + 13 = 42

Solve for x:

x = 29

salantis [7]
X = <span>width
2x-3 = </span><span>length 

</span>x(2x-3) = 65\\&#10;2x^2 - 3x - 65 = 0 \\ D=b^2-4ac=(-3)^2-4*2*(-65)=529\\&#10;x_{1,2}= \frac{-bб \sqrt{D} }{2a}= \frac{3б 23}{4} \\ x_1=-5  \ \ \O \\ x_2=6.5 \ \

width = 6.5 m
length  = 2x-3 = 2*6.5 - 3 = 10 m

Write a linear function f with the values f(0)=−3 and f(7)=11.
kotegsom [21]

Answer:  f(x)= 2x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given information we can come up with two points that will be use to find the slope and y-intercept.  

If you input 0 you get -3  so the point will be (0,-3)

If you input 7  you get 11  so the point will be (7,11)

Now use the points to find the difference in their y coordinates and divide it by the difference in their x coordinates to find the slope.

y coordinates:  -3 - 11 = -14

x coordinates:  0 - 7 = -7

  -14/-7 = 2

Since the slope is two, we will use the slope intercept formula (y = mx +b) to find the b which is the y intercept.

Use one of the points and input its x and y coordinates into the formula including the slope to solve for b.

-3= 2(0) +b

-3 = 0 + b

b = -3  

f(x) is the same as y in the formula, meaning that the equation will be  

 f(x) = 2x -3
