Ipatiy [6.2K]3 years ago

So we assume that x=x and y=y is true for both situations so

3x+2y=-2
6x-y=6



6x-y=6
add y to both sides
6x=6+y
subtract 6 from both sides
6x-6=y
subsitute (6x-6) for y in first equation
3x+2(6x-6)=-2
distribute
3x+12x-12=-2
add like terms
15x-12=-2
add 12 to both sides
15x=10
divide both sides by 15
x=2/3
subsitute
3x+2y=-2
3(2/3)+2y=-2
6/3+2y=-2
2+2y=-2
subtract 2 from both sides
2y=-4
divide both sides by 2
y=-2

x=2/3
y=-2
solution in (x,y) form
(2/3,-2)

1. When Gavin deposited $2000 into his savings account he was given the option of earning 9% compounded annually or 2.5% compoun
salantis [7]
Hello there! So, the formula for compound interest is P(1 + r/n)^nt. P = principal, r = rate, n = number of times compounded per year, and t = time in years. 

a. Just by looking at the numbers, I would say that Gavin should take the first option of 9% compound interest annually.

b. I say this, because you're gonna earn a lot more. Just by solving the question for the amount in 5 years for each account, the first opinion will earn you $3,077.35, and the other option will only give you $2,265.42 in 5 years. Keep in mind that compounding quarterly means 4 times per year. With a low interest rate, it's no surprise that the first option would be a better choice.

Since the bolts need to be within 0.2 mm of 12 mm, that means that the length of the bolts are anywhere between 12 mm + 0.2 mm and 12 mm - 0.2 mm.

1. Since they are within 0.2 mm, and since it doesn't specify if they are plus or minus, the bolts can be at lengths anywhere from 12.2 mm to 11.8 mm. 

     a) Since the bolts are within 0.2 mm of 12 mm, that means that the longest would be 12 mm + 0.2 mm which is equal to 12.2 mm.

     b) Since the bolts are within 0.2 mm of 12 mm, the shortest bolt possible would be 0.2 mm smaller than 12 mm, which is equal to 12 mm - 0.2 mm which is 11.8 mm.
