To determine the number of animals in each pack, we need to understand each statement in the problem since these are key to obtaining the correct answer.

number of packs = 3
number of animals given to sister = 6
number of animals left = 9
total number of animals = 6+9 = 15

It is said the in each pack there is an equal number of animals. Therefore,

Number of animals per pack = 15 / 3 = 5 animals

{8x-10y=20 and -7x+10y-20
lidiya [134]

Write the equations:

8x-10y=20

-7x+10y=20

Add them using elimination

x=40

Now solve for y

8(40)-10y=20

10y=300

y=30

So there you have it: x=40, y=30.

Harry had $32. He spent all the money buying three notebooks for x dollars each and four packs of index cards for y dollars each
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

x = notebooks

y = indexboks

3x+4y=32 ( here is spent all money so I add 32 here )

5x+5y=50

by elemination method

3x+4y=32×5

5x+5y=50×4 ( here I'm going to eliminate y )

15 x+20y= 160

20x+20y= 200

- - = -

____________

-5x = -40

x = - 40 / -5

x = 8

here - × - = + so iam taking positive 8

now substitute the value of x in any equation

3×8+4y = 32

24 + 4y = 32

4y = 32-24

y = 8 / 4

y = 2

CHECKING

SUBSTITUTE BOTH VALUES IN ANY EQUATION

5×8+5×2 = 50

40 + 10 = 50

50 = 50

I SUBSTITUTE IN 2ND EQUATION

Use the graph of f '(x) below to find the x values of the relative maximum on the graph of f(x):
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

You have relative maximum at x=1.

Step-by-step explanation:

-Note that f' is continuous and smooth everywhere. f therefore exists everywhere on the domain provided in the graph.

f' is greater than 0 when the curve is above the x-axis.

f' greater than 0 means that f is increasing there.

f' is less than 0 when the curve is below the x-axis.

f' is less than 0 means that f is decreasing there.

Since we are looking for relative maximum(s), we are looking for when the graph of f switches from increasing to decreasing. That forms something that looks like this '∩' sort of.

This means we are looking for when f' switches from positive to negative. At that switch point is where we have the relative maximum occurring at.

Looking at the graph the switch points are at x=0, x=1, and x=2.

At x=0, we have f' is less than 0 before x=0 and that f' is greater than 0 after x=0.  That means f is decreasing to increasing here. There would be a relative minimum at x=0.

At x=1, we have f' is greater than 0 before x=1 and that f' is less than 0 after x=1. That means f is increasing to decreasing here. There would be a relative maximum at x=1.

At x=2, we have f' is less than 0 before x=2 and that f' is greater than 0 after x=2. That means f is decreasing to increasing here. There would be a relative minimum at x=2.

Conclusion:

* Relative minimums at x=0 and x=2

* Relative maximums at x=1
