Ving Advanced Linear Equations: Practice

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nastasia [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

In the first week, Micah bought 11 gallons of gas.

In the second week, Micah bought 8 gallons of gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

First week

x gallons of gas at $2.39 per gallon

x gallons = $2.39x

Second week

3 fewer gallons of gas than the first week at $2.49 per gallon

x - 3 gallons = $2.49(x-3)

Total spent = $46.21

$2.39x + $2.49(x-3) = $46.21

2.39x + 2.49x - 7.47 = 46.21

4.88x - 7.47 = 46.21

Add 7.47 to both sides

4.88x - 7.47 + 7.47 = 46.21 + 7.47

4.88x = 53.68

Divide both sides by 4.88

x = 53.68/4.88

= 11

x = 11

First week = x = 11 gallons

Second week

= x - 3

= 11-3

= 8 gallons

Therefore,

In the first week, Micah bought 11 gallons of gas.

In the second week, Micah bought 8 gallons of gas.

A) is right
b) just subtract ljm and kjm so 145-48 = 92°
c) 9x-25=7x+7 so here you put npq=mpq+mpn and you combine terms so it's now 2x=32 then divide by 2 on both sides and x= 16
now you just plug it into 3x-5 and you get 43°

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)

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution
Bond [772]

Answer:

(-4, 5)

Step-by-step explanation (work shown in attached picture):

1) Since x is already isolated in the first equation, substitute that value for x into the other equation to find y. So, substitute 16-4y for the x in 3x + 4y = 8, then solve for y. This gives us y = 5.

2) Now, substitute that given value for y back into any one of the equations to find x. I chose to do it in the first equation. Substitute 5 for the y in x = 16-4y, then solve for x this time. This gives us x = -4.

Since x = -4 and y = 5, the solution is (-4, 5).
