Mathematics
1 answer:
Leno4ka [110]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

<h2>x = 2, y = 1 → (2, 1)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-x+7y=5\\-4x+y=-7&\text{add}\ 4x\ \text{to both sides}\end{array}\right\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-x+7y=5&(1)\\y=4x-7&(2)\end{array}\right\qquad\text{subtritute (2) to (1)}\\\\-x+7(4x-7)=5\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\-x+(7)(4x)+(7)(-7)=5\\\\-x+28x-49=5\qquad\text{add 49 to both sides}\\\\-x+28x=5+49\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\27x=54\qquad\text{divide both sides by 27}\\\\\boxed{x=2}

\text{Put the value of}\ x\ \text{to (2):}\\\\y=4(2)-7\\\\y=8-7\\\\\boxed{y=1}

So there is no slope

Here it has constant x value as -2

So the equation is

  • x=-2

mario62 [17]
To get 4 or fewer correct, at least 2 answers have to be wrong. And the probability of that is:
3/4 x 3/4=9/16
1-9/16=probability that 4 or fewer are correct=7/16 ☺☺☺☺

Find a unit vector that has the same direction as the vector a and the opposite direction of the vector
nasty-shy [4]
The unit vector is given by the following formula:
 a '= (a) / (lal)
 Where,
 a: vector a
 lal: Vector module a
 We are looking for the module:
 lal = root ((- 15) ^ 2 + (8) ^ 2)
 lal = 17
 Same direction:
 a = -15i + 8j
 The unit vector is:
 a '= (1/17) * (- 15i + 8j)
 Opposite direction:
 a = 15i - 8j
 The unit vector is:
 a '= (1/17) * (15i - 8j)
 Answer:
 
a unit vector that has the same direction as the vector a is:
 
a '= (1/17) * (- 15i + 8j)
 
a unit vector that has the opposite direction of the vector a is:
 
a '= (1/17) * (15i - 8j)
