Answer:

The length of the shorter piece=0.35 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the lengths be as follow;

Shorter piece=x

Longer piece=15 cm longer than twice shorter piece(x)

Since 1 m=100 cm, 15 cm=15/100=0.15 m

Longer piece= (2×x)+0.15=2x+0.15

Total length=1.2 m

Total length=shorter piece+longer piece

Replacing;

1.2=x+2x+0.15

3x=1.2-0.15

3x=1.05

x=(1.05/3)=0.35

The length of the shorter piece=x=0.35

which ordered pair is a solution to the system of linear equations 1/2 x - 3/4 y = 11/60 and 2/5 x + 1/6 y = 3/10?
bekas [8.4K]

Value of x=\frac{2}{3}\,\,and\,\,value\,\,of\,\,y=\frac{1}{5}

Solution set is  (\frac{2}{3},\frac{1}{5})

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the following system of equations:

\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{3}{4}y=\frac{11}{60}\,\,\,eq(1)\\\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{1}{6}y=\frac{3}{10}\,\,\,eq(2)

We can solve this using Substitution.

Isolate x in \frac{1}{2}x-\frac{3}{4}y=\frac{11}{60}

\frac{1}{2}x=\frac{11}{60}+\frac{3}{4}y\\ x=\frac{11}{30}+\frac{3}{2}y

Putting value of x in equation(2)

\frac{2}{5}(\frac{11}{30}+\frac{3}{2}y)+\frac{1}{6}y=\frac{3}{10}\\Solving:\\Taking\,\,LCM\,\,of\,\,5,6,10 \,\,we\,\,get: 30\\Multiply\,\,by\,\,LCM\\\frac{2}{5}(\frac{11}{30}+\frac{3}{2}y)\times30+\frac{1}{6}y\times30=\frac{3}{10}\times30\\Simplifying:\\12(\frac{11}{30}+\frac{3}{2}y)+5y=9\\\frac{22}{5}+18y+5y=9\\23y=9-\frac{22}{5}\\23y=\frac{45-22}{5}\\23y=\frac{23}{5}\\y=\frac{\frac{23}{5} }{23}\\y=\frac{1}{5}

Putting value of y=1/5 in x=\frac{11}{30}+\frac{3}{2}y

x=\frac{11}{30}+\frac{3}{2}\times\frac{1}{5} \\x=\frac{11}{30}+\frac{3}{10}\\x=\frac{11+3*3}{30}\\x=\frac{11+9}{30} \\x=\frac{20}{30}\\x=\frac{2}{3}

So, value of x=\frac{2}{3}\,\,and\,\,value\,\,of\,\,y=\frac{1}{5}

Solution set is  (\frac{2}{3},\frac{1}{5})

How do i do this problem ?
Vladimir79 [104]
When it asks for f(-π) or f(0) or f(whatever) it essentially means you need to sub in the values for whatever into the bracket into the function 

so if f( \theta) =sin(\theta)

and then you're asked to find f(-π) then it essentially wants you to find sin(-π)

Therefore 

f(-π) = sin(-π) = 0
f(0) = sin (0) = 0
f(π) = sin(π) = 0
f(2π) = sin2π = 0
