Answer:

x-25 = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of cookies made = x

The employees bake 40 cookies which is 25 less than the number of donuts they make

Number of Cookies is less than Number of Donuts by 25

Therefore the equation that describes the situation is given as:

x-25 = 40 where x is the number of cookies made.

Answer:

The equation is not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets break it down

Cookies = 40

Donuts lets call it x since we dont have a figure

It is said that the 40 cookies is 25 less than the number of donuts

So therefore

x less than 25 = 40

x-25=40

To get x we add 25 to each side

x-25+25=40+25

x=65

Equation should be

x-25=40

That is 65-25 =40

Suppose line segment AB has one endpoint at A(0, 0). What are the coordinates of B if (5, 3) is 1/3 of the way from A to B?
prisoha [69]

Answer:

B(x_2,y_2)= (20,12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A = (0,0)

Ratio; m : n = 1 : 3

Point\ at\ 1 : 3 = (5,3)

Required

Coordinates of B

This question will be answered using line ratio formula;

(x,y) = (\frac{mx_2 + nx_1}{m + n},\frac{my_2 + ny_1}{m + n})

In this case:

(x,y) = (5,3)

(x_1,y_1) = (0,0)

m : n = 1 : 3

Solving for (x_2,y_2)

(x,y) = (\frac{mx_2 + nx_1}{m + n},\frac{my_2 + ny_1}{m + n}) becomes

(5,3) =  (\frac{1 * x_2 + 3 * 0}{1 + 3},\frac{1 * y_2 + 3 * 0}{1 + 3})

(5,3) =  (\frac{x_2 + 0}{4},\frac{y_2 + 0}{4})

(5,3) =  (\frac{x_2}{4},\frac{y_2}{4})

Comparing the right hand side to the left;

\frac{x_2}{4} = 5 -- (1)

\frac{y_2}{4} = 3 -- (2)

Solving (1)

x_2 = 5 * 4

x_2 = 20

Solving (2)

y_2 = 3 * 4

y_2 = 12

Hence;

B(x_2,y_2)= (20,12)

Solve the following 3 × 3 system. Enter the coordinates of the solution below.
love history [14]
The system is:

i)    <span>2x – 3y – 2z = 4
ii)    </span><span>x + 3y + 2z = –7
</span>iii)   <span>–4x – 4y – 2z = 10 

the last equation can be simplified, by dividing by -2, 

thus we have:

</span>i)    2x – 3y – 2z = 4
ii)    x + 3y + 2z = –7
iii)   2x +2y +z = -5 


The procedure to solve the system is as follows:

first use any pairs of 2 equations (for example i and ii, i and iii) and equalize them by using one of the variables:

i)    2x – 3y – 2z = 4   
iii)   2x +2y +z = -5 

2x can be written as 3y+2z+4 from the first equation, and -2y-z-5 from the third equation.

Equalize:  

3y+2z+4=-2y-z-5, group common terms:
5y+3z=-9   

similarly, using i and ii, eliminate x:

i)    2x – 3y – 2z = 4
ii)    x + 3y + 2z = –7

multiply the second equation by 2:


i)    2x – 3y – 2z = 4
ii)    2x + 6y + 4z = –14

thus 2x=3y+2z+4 from i and 2x=-6y-4z-14 from ii:

3y+2z+4=-6y-4z-14
9y+6z=-18

So we get 2 equations with variables y and z:

a)   5y+3z=-9 
b)   9y+6z=-18

now the aim of the method is clear: We eliminate one of the variables, creating a system of 2 linear equations with 2 variables, which we can solve by any of the standard methods.

Let's use elimination method, multiply the equation a by -2:

a)   -10y-6z=18 
b)   9y+6z=-18
------------------------    add the equations:

-10y+9y-6z+6z=18-18
-y=0
y=0,

thus :
9y+6z=-18 
0+6z=-18
z=-3

Finally to find x, use any of the equations i, ii or iii:

<span>2x – 3y – 2z = 4 
</span>
<span>2x – 3*0 – 2(-3) = 4

2x+6=4

2x=-2

x=-1

Solution: (x, y, z) = (-1, 0, -3 ) 


Remark: it is always a good attitude to check the answer, because often calculations mistakes can be made:

check by substituting x=-1, y=0, z=-3 in each of the 3 equations and see that for these numbers the equalities hold.</span>
