Answer:

Question 1. (2.2, -1.4)

Question 2. (1.33, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations for the given lines are

y=-\frac{7}{4}x+\frac{5}{2}-----(1)

It is given that this line passes through two points (0, 2.5) and (2.2, 1.4).

y=\frac{3}{4}x-3------(2)

This equation passes through (0, -3) and (2.2, -1.4).

Now we have to find a common point through which these lines pass or solution of these equations.

From equations (1) and (2),

-\frac{7}{4}x+\frac{5}{2}=\frac{3}{4}x-3

x(\frac{7}{4}+\frac{3}{4})=\frac{5}{2}+3

\frac{10}{4}x=\frac{11}{2}

x = \frac{11}{2\times 2.5}

x = 2.2

From equation (2),

y=\frac{3}{4}\times (2.2)-3

y = -1.4

Therefore, solution of these equations is (2.2, -1.4).

Question 2.

The given equations are y = 1.5x - 1 and y = 1

From these equations,

1 = 1.5x - 1

1.5x = 2

x = \frac{2}{1.5}=1.33

Therefore, the solution of the system of linear equations is (1.33, 1).

Answer:

1) (2.2, -1.4)

2) (1.33, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1)

Two lines, with their corresponding equations are given and we have to find the solution to the system of equations.

The given lines are:

Equation of Line 1:

y=\frac{-7}{4}x+\frac{5}{2}

This line passes through the points: (0, 2.5) , (2.2, -1.4)

Equation of Line 2:

y=\frac{3}{4}x-3

This line passes through the points (0, -3) , (2.2, -1.4)

By looking at the graph/given data we have to find the solution of these linear equations.

Remember that the solution of linear equations is an ordered pair, through which both the lines pass i.e. the point at which both the given lines intersect is the solution of the linear equations.

From the given data we can see that both the lines pass through one common point, (2.2, -1.4). Since, both lines pass through this point, this means this is the point of intersection of the lines and hence there solution.

So, the answer to this questions is (2.2, -1.4)

Question 2)

The given equations are:

y = 1.5x - 1                                        Equation 1

y = 1                                                  Equation 2

We can solve these equations by method of substitution.

Substituting the value of y from Equation 2, in Equation 1, we get:

1 = 1.5x - 1

1 + 1 = 1.5x

2 = 1.5x

x = 2/1.5

x = 1.33

y = 1

Thus, the solution of the given linear equations is (1.33, 1)

Amanda's parents had a birthday dinner for her at Sushi Yama restaurant. The bill came to $74 before the tip. They left an 18% t
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

<h2>$87.32</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

we are told that the initial bill is $74

thereafter they gave a tip worth 18% of the bill

let us compute what 18% of $74 will amount to

Step two:

=18/100*74

=0.18*74

=$13.32

The added expenses is $13.32

Hence the total cost is

the initial bill plus the tip

=74+13.32

=$87.32

Kryger [21]

Answer:

The answer is 117.3 in^{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the volume of the cone, use the cone volume formula, which is   V = \frac{1}{3} \pi  r^{2} h.

Next, plug in the information given from the problem, and the formula will look like V = \frac{1}{3} (\pi) (4 in^{2}) (7 in).

Then, solve the equation, and the answer will be 117.3 in^{3}.

Ben walks 500 meters from his house to the corner store. He then walks back toward his house, but continues 200 meters past his
lbvjy [14]

Answer:1.2 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance covered is 500+500+200 m so the average velocity is given by

V = distance/time

V=1200/(17*60)

V=1.176 m/sec

Molly read 50 out of the 200 pages in her fiction book. Joel is also reading a fiction book, but his book has 280 pages in total
katrin [286]

Answer:

x = 70

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Molly: 50 out of 200

Joel: x out of 280

Required

Find x

Start by representing the giving parameters as ration

Molly= 50 : 200

Joel = x : 280

From the question, the ratios are equivalent. So,

50 : 200 = x : 280

Convert to fractions

\frac{50}{200} = \frac{x}{280}

Solve for x

x = \frac{50}{200} * 280

x = \frac{1}{4} * 280

x = \frac{280}{4}

x = 70
