28.333333333. If you do a proportion and place it 1/(?) times .6/(17) you should multiply 17 by 1 (17*1) which should equal 17. You now have to divide it so 17 divided by .6 (17/6) which equals to 28.333333.

Eight times a number plus five another number is -13. The sum of the two numbers is 1. What are the numbers?

Pani-rosa [81]

Eight *(a number) plus 5*(another number) is -13.

translates to:

8(x) + 5(y) = -13

The sum of (the number) and (the other number) is 1.

translates to:

(x) + (y) = 1

We have a system of two equations involving two unknowns: x and y.

$\rm 8x+5y=-13\\
~~x+~~y=~~~~1$

We can easily solve the system using Substitution or Elimination. Let's use Elimination this time.

We'll multiply the second equation by -8 so that the x's match up.

$\rm ~~~8x+5y=-13\\ -8x-8y=-8$

When we add the equations together, the x's will fall out of the equation, summing to zero. The 5y and -8y will sum to -3y and the right hand side will sum to -21.

$\rm -3y=-21$

Divide by -3,

$\rm y=7$

Plug back into one of your original equations to find the value of x,

$\rm x+y=1\\
x+7=1$

Subtract 7,

$\rm x=-6$

The indefinite integral can be found in more than one way. First use the substitution method to find the indefinite integral. Th

Fantom [35]

Answer:

∫ $6x^5(x^6-2)\,dx$ = $\frac{1}{2}(x^6-2)^2+C$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find:

∫ $6x^5(x^6-2)\,dx$

Solution:

Method of substitution:

Let $x^6-2=t$

Differentiate both sides with respect to $t$

$6x^5\,dx=dt$

[use $(x^n)'=nx^{n-1}$ ]

So,

∫ $6x^5(x^6-2)\,dx$ = ∫ $t\,dt$ = $\frac{t^2}{2}+C_1$ where $C_1$ is a variable.

(Use ∫ $t^n\,dt=\frac{t^{n+1} }{n+1}$ )

Put $t=x^6-2$

∫ $6x^5(x^6-2)\,dx$ = $\frac{1}{2}(x^6-2)^2+C_1$

Use $(a-b)^2=a^2+b^2-2ab$

So,

∫ $6x^5(x^6-2)\,dx$ = $\frac{1}{2}(x^6-2)^2+C_1=\frac{1}{2}(x^{12}+4-4x^6)+C_1=\frac{x^{12} }{2}-2x^6+2+C_1=\frac{x^{12} }{2}-2x^6+C$

where $C=2+C_1$

Without using substitution:

∫ $6x^5(x^6-2)\,dx$ = ∫ $6x^{11}-12x^5\,dx$ = $\frac{6x^{12} }{12}-\frac{12x^6}{6}+C=\frac{x^{12} }{2}-2x^6+C$

So, same answer is obtained in both the cases.

How many cubes of edge 4cm, each can be cut out from cuboid whose length, breadth and height are 20 cm, 18 cm and 16 cm respecti

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

90 cubes.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find volume of the cuboid.

Volume = l x b x h = 20 x 18 x 16 = 5760 cm³

Now,

Volume of a single cube = l³ = 4³ = 64

No of cubes that can be cut out from the cuboid is

= Volume of cuboid/ volume of cube

= 5760/ 64

= 90 cubes

What is the total area of the figure? Please help I’ll give brainliest!!

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

64 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

You can split this figure into a rectangle and triangle to find the area.

A= l * w

A= 5 * 12

Area of the rectangle = 60 sq in

A= 1/2 bh

b= 12-8 = 4

h= 7-5 =2

A= 1/2 (4)(2)

Area of the triangle = 4 sq in

60 + 4 = 64 sq in

Graph the equation to solve the system. y=2x+7 1/2y=x+7/2

vlabodo [156]

Given equation is y=2x+7 and $\frac{1}{2}y=x+\frac{7}{2}$

Let's simplify the 2nd equation $\frac{1}{2}y=x+\frac{7}{2}$ before we can start graph so that calculation will be easy

$\frac{1}{2}y=x+\frac{7}{2}$

multiply both sides by 2 to cancel out fractions

$2*\frac{1}{2}y=2*x+2*\frac{7}{2}$

y=2x+7

which is exactly same as the first equatoin so graph of both will be exactly same and solution will be infinitely many solutions.

y=2x+7 has y-intercept 7 so first point will be (0,7). Slope is 2 so rise 2 unit up then 1 right and graph the new point.
