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)

Solve 11b^2-9=-68 using the square root method
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

b=i*\sqrt{\frac{59}{11} } or -i*\sqrt{\frac{59}{11} }

Step-by-step explanation:

11b^2-9=-68

11b^2=-59

b^2=-59/11

b=i*\sqrt{\frac{59}{11} } or -i*\sqrt{\frac{59}{11} }

"i" in this case is an imaginary number, equal to \sqrt{-1\\}

Please help me <br> thank you
lilavasa [31]
Use the Pythagorean theorem. We have legs with lengths of 15 and 20 miles, now let's solve for the hypotenuse.

a=15
b=20
c=?

a^2+b^2=c^2
15^2+20^2=c^2
c^2=400+225=625
c=25

Your answer is 25 miles. Hope this helps! :)

Factor 6y 2 - 48 + 42y.<br><br> (6y + 8)(y - 6)<br> 6(y + 8)(y - 1)<br> 6(y - 1)(y - 7)
astraxan [27]

Answer:

6 (y + 8) (y - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following:

6 y^2 + 42 y - 48

Factor 6 out of 6 y^2 + 42 y - 48:

6 (y^2 + 7 y - 8)

The factors of -8 that sum to 7 are 8 and -1. So, y^2 + 7 y - 8 = (y + 8) (y - 1):

Answer: 6 (y + 8) (y - 1)

PS: it's really helpful to pose the question correctly 6 y^2 + 42 y - 48  NOT

6y 2 - 48 + 42y

17. Find the reflection of the point A(6.-1) in the x-axis.<br>​
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Your answer will be (6,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

I know this because a reflection over the x-axis is (x,y) -> (x,-y) If you apply this to (6,-1) you get (6,1).

Solve for x using desmos or the quadratic formula 2x^2 - 5x - 12 = 0
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

x = 4 or x = (-3)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

2 x^2 - 5 x - 12 = 0

x = (5 ± sqrt((-5)^2 - 4×2 (-12)))/(2×2) = (5 ± sqrt(25 + 96))/4 = (5 ± sqrt(121))/4:

x = (5 + sqrt(121))/4 or x = (5 - sqrt(121))/4

sqrt(121) = sqrt(11^2) = 11:

x = (5 + 11)/4 or x = (5 - 11)/4

(5 + 11)/4 = 16/4 = 4:

x = 4 or x = (5 - 11)/4

(5 - 11)/4 = -6/4 = -3/2:

Answer:  x = 4 or x = (-3)/2
