Answer:

3 and - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

The first number be "x", and

The second number be "y"

The sum of the 2 numbers is -1, so we can write:

x + y = -1

or

x = -1 - y

Twice the first and 4 times second SUMMED, gives us -10, so we can write:

2x + 4y = -10

Now, we put 1st equation in 2nd and find y first:

2x + 4y = -10\\2(-1-y) + 4y = -10\\-2-2y+4y=-10\\2y=-10+2\\2y=-8\\y=-4

Now, finding x:

x = -1 - y

x = -1 -(-4)

x = -1 + 4

x = 3

So, the two number are:

3 and - 4

Answer:

The number are: x=3 and y=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider the numbers be x and y.

As the sum of two numbers is -1.

So,

x + y = -1

and

Twice the first number and four times the second number are added the sum is -10.

So,

2x + 4y = -10

Solving

x + y = -1

2x + 4y = -10

\begin{bmatrix}x+y=-1\\ 2x+4y=-10\end{bmatrix}

\mathrm{Subsititute\:}x=-1-y

\begin{bmatrix}2\left(-1-y\right)+4y=-10\end{bmatrix}

-2-2y+4y=-10

2y=-8

y=-4

\mathrm{Subsititute\:}y=-4

x=-1-(-4)

x=3

Therefore, the number are: x=3 and y=-4

Verification:

As x=3 and y=-4

So,

x + y = -1

3 + (-4) = -1

-1=-1

Also

2x + 4y = -10

2(3) + 4(-4)= -10

6-16=-10

-10=-10

Express f(x) = |x-2| +|x+2| in the non-modulus form. Hence, sketch the graph of f.
alexgriva [62]
Recall that

|x|=\begin{cases}x&\text{if }x\ge0\\-x&\text{if }x

There are three cases to consider:

(1) When x+2, we have |x+2|=-(x+2) and |x-2|=-(x-2), so

|x-2|+|x+2|=-(x-2)-(x+2)=-2x-4

(2) When x+2\ge0 and x-2, we get |x+2|=x+2 and |x-2|=-(x-2), so

|x-2|+|x+2|=-(x-2)+(x+2)=4

(3) When x-2\ge0, we have |x+2|=x+2 and |x-2|=x-2, so

|x-2|+|x+2|=(x-2)+(x+2)=2x

So

|x-2|+|x+2|=\begin{cases}-2x-4&\text{if }x

A new car is purchased for 17000 dollars. The value of the car depreciates at 12.25% per year. What will the value of the car be
Scilla [17]

Answer:

P(t=14) = 17000 (1-0.1225)^{14}= 2728.404

Step-by-step explanation:

for this case we have the following model for the cost of the car:

P(t) = P_o (1-r)^t

Where P_o is the initial amount on this case 17000, t the amount of years after the initial year and r the depreciation rate on this case:

r= \frac{12.25}{100}=0.1225

And for t =14 we can replace into the equation and we got:

P(t=14) = 17000 (1-0.1225)^{14}= 2728.404
