Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the sum of all angles of a parallelogram is equal to 360 degrees, <Z + <Y is half of the parallelogram, and therefore <Z + <Y = 180 degrees.
16x-4 + 7x = 180, combine like terms
23x - 4 = 180, add 4 on both sides (isolate variable)
23x = 184, divide 23 on both sides
x = 8
Answer:
f(x)=12x
Step-by-step explanation
We know that f(x) is our y-coordinate and x is the x-coordinate
Next we should insert x-6 as x in the equation
This is f(x)=12(x-6)-72
But if you look at this that leads to 12x-72 (ignore y-intercept)
That is our first equation
This means that if you take out -6 from the x
You will get f(x)=12x
(Also do you go to RSM?)
These problems are called systems of equations. Basically you have two linear equations and you need to find the values for x and y. In other words, all these equation are lines and our answer will be the exact point that the pair of lines intersect. For example, if we get x=1 and y=2 the lines will intersect at point (1,2). Now that you have some background knowledge here comes the tricks and tactics kid.
We know that we can solve one variable equation easily. For example...
x+1=2
x=1 obviously
Cause we have two variables x and y it is not possible to find a solution. For example, in the equation x+y=10, x=1 when y=9 and x=2 when y=8. There is not correct answer.
So what can we do? We have to make a two variable equation into a one variable equation.
There are two ways to do this: substitution and elimination. I will create a sample problem and then solve it using both methods.
x+y=2
2y-y=1
3)
-3x-5y=-7 -----> -12x-20y=-28
-4x-3y=-2 ------> -12x-9y=-6
-12x-20y=-28
-(-12x-9y=-6)
---------------------
-11y=-22
y=2
-3x-5(2)=-7
-3x=3
x=-1
4) 8x+4y=12 ---> 24x+12y=36
7x+3y=10 ---> 28x+12y=40
28x+12y=40
-(24x+12y=36)
---------------------
4x=4
x=1
8(1)+4y=12
4y=4
y=1
5) 4x+3y=-7
-2x-5y=7 ----> -4x-10y=14
4x+3y=-7
+(-4x-10y=14)
-------------------
-7y=7
y=-1
4x+3(-1)=-7
4x=-4
x=-1
6) 8x-3y=-9 ---> 32x-12y=-36
5x+4y=12 ---> 15x+12y=36
32x-12y=-36
+(15x+12y=36)
--------------------
47x=0
x=0
8(0)-3y=-9
-3y=-9
y=3
7)-3x+5y=-2
2x-2y=1 ---> x-y=1/2 ----> x=y+1/2
-3(y+1/2)+5y=-2
-3y-1.5+5y=-2
2y=-0.5
y=0.25
2x-2(0.25)=1
2x=1.5
x=0.75
Answer:
4.969696 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance traveled is shown through the following equations
Distance = velocity * time
This means that
4100=velocity*4
This means that ariplane 1 travles at 1025 km/hr
We can then subtract 200 from this to find that airplane two travels at a speed of 825 km/hr
Now we need to find how long it takes for that plane to travel 4100
So using the same equation
4100=825*time
Divison will tell us that the answer is around 4.9696 hours which is pretty much 5
