9514 1404 393

Answer:

  2 and 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent the first and second numbers, respectively.

  3x +3y = 15

  4x +2y = 14

Dividing the equations by common factors, we can rewrite them to standard form:

  x + y = 5

  2x + y = 7

Subtracting the first equation from the second gives ...

  (2x +y) -(x +y) = (7) -(5)

  x = 2

Using either equation to find y, we have also ...

  y = 3

The two numbers are 2 and 3.

A 1350 kg car travels at 12 m/s. What is it's kinetic energy
qaws [65]
KE = 1/2(m * v^2)

KE = 1/2(1350 * 12^2)
KE = 1/2(1350 * 144)
KE = 1/2(194,400)
KE = 97,200 Joules

under a dilation, the point (2,6) is moved to (6,18) what is the scale factor of the dilation? enter your answer in the box​
Anestetic [448]
<h2>3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of line passing through the two points is \frac{y-y_{1} }{x-x_{1} }=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1}}{x_{2} -x_{1}}

When substituted,the equation becomes \frac{y-6}{x-2}=\frac{18-6}{6-2}

which when simplified is y=3\times x

The line clearly passes through origin.

The distance between two points is \sqrt{(y_{1}-y_{2} )^{2}+(x_{1}- x_{2} )^{2}}

Distance between origin and (2,6) is \sqrt{40}.

Distance between origin and (6,18) is \sqrt{360}

Scale factor is  \frac{distance\text{ }of\text{ }p_{2}\text{ from origin}}{distance \text{ } of \text{ } p_{1}\text{ from origin}}

So,scale factor is \frac{\sqrt{360} }{\sqrt{40} }

which when simplified becomes 3.
