NO LINKS!! Use the method of substitution to solve the system. (If there's no solution, enter no solution). Part 11z

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

$(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{-1,-8} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(smaller $x$-value)}$

$(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{5,16} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(larger $x$-value)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system of equations:

$\begin{cases}y=x^2-9\\y=4x-4\end{cases}$

To solve by the method of substitution, substitute the first equation into the second equation and rearrange so that the equation equals zero:

$\begin{aligned}x^2-9&=4x-4\\x^2-4x-9&=-4\\x^2-4x-5&=0\end{aligned}$

Factor the quadratic:

$\begin{aligned}x^2-4x-5&=0\\x^2-5x+x-5&=0\\x(x-5)+1(x-5)&=0\\(x+1)(x-5)&=0\end{aligned}$

Apply the <u>zero-product property</u> and solve for x:

$\implies x+1=0 \implies x=-1$

$\implies x-5=0 \implies x=5$

Substitute the found values of x into the <u>second equation</u> and solve for y:

$\begin{aligned}x=-1 \implies y&=4(-1)-4\\y&=-4-4\\y&=-8\end{aligned}$

$\begin{aligned}x=5 \implies y&=4(5)-4\\y&=20-4\\y&=16\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the solutions are:

$(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{-1,-8} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(smaller $x$-value)}$

$(x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{5,16} \; \right)\quad \textsf{(larger $x$-value)}$

The diameter of a circular tablecloth is 72 inches. Find the area and circumference. Use 3.14 as an approximation for pi.

nalin [4]

Answer:

Part 1) The area is $A=4,069.44\ in^{2}$

Part 2) The circumference is $C=226.08\ in$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area

we know that

The area of a circle (circular tablecloth) is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$r=72/2=36\ in$ ------> the radius is half the diameter

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$A=(3.14)(36)^{2}$

$A=4,069.44\ in^{2}$

step 2

Find the circumference

we know that

The circumference of a circle (circular tablecloth) is equal to

$C=\pi D$

we have

$D=72\ in$

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$C=(3.14)(72)$

$C=226.08\ in$

Write an equation in slope intercept form thag passes through (4,-4) and is parallel to 3+4x=2y-9

uysha [10]

The original line is

4x - 2y = -12

The parallel lines will all be

4x - 2y = constant

and the constant is given by the point directly:

4x - 2y = 4(4) - 2(-4) = 24

2y = 4x - 24

y = 2x - 12

Answer: y = 2x - 12

Find the value of 15.0 N in pounds. Use the conversions 1slug=14.59kg and 1ft=0.3048m .

Sliva [168]

The value of 15.0 N in pounds = 3.375 lb

<h3><em>Further explanation </em></h3>

The derivative magnitude is a quantity derived from the principal amount

7 main quantities have been determined based on international standards, namely:

1. Length, meters (m)

2. Time, second (s)

3. Mass, kilograms (kg)

4. Temperature, kelvin (K)

5. Light intensity, candela (cd)

6. Electric current, ampere (A)

7. Amount of substance, mol (m)

Newton (N) is one unit of force (F) which is a quantity derived from mass (m), length (l) and time (s)

Newton can be expressed in terms of Kg m / s²

Formula used:

F = m. a

N = kg. m / s²

In the British system there are units of slug, feet, and pounds so that the unit of force becomes:

F = m. a

Lb = slug. ft / s²

The relationship between the two-unit systems above is:

1 kg = 0.0685 slug

1 slug = 14.59 kg

1 newton = 0.225 lb

1 lb = 4,448 newtons

1 ft = 0.3048 m

So if we change 15 N to lb by using slug and ft

15 N = 15 * (1 / 14.59) slug * (1 / 0.3048) ft / s²

15 N = 3,375 slug ft / s ²

15 N = 3,375 lb

or we convert directly:

15 N = 15 * 0.225 lb

15 N = 3,375 lb
