Answer:

x = 1

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>Substitution Method:</h2>

Step 1:

Name The Equation

4x + y = 7 ...(1)

3x + 2y = 9 ...(2)

Step 2:

From Equation (1) we get,

4x = 7 - y

i.e.,

x = 7 - y/4

Step 3:

Substitute the value of x = 7 - y/4 in equation (2)

i.e.,

3(7 - y/4) + 2y = 9

21 - 3y/4 + 2y = 9

21 - 3y + 8y/4 = 9

21 - 3y + 8y = 9 * 4

21 + 5y = 36

5y = 36 - 21

5y = 15

y = 15/5

y = 3

Step 4:

Substitute the value of y = 3 in equation (1)

4x + y = 7

i.e.,

4x + (3) = 7

4x + 3 = 7

4x = 7 - 4

4x = 4

x = 4/4

x = 1

<h2>Verification: </h2>

4x + y = 7 i.e., 4(1) + (3) = 7

3x + 2y = 9 i.e., 3(1) + 2(3) = 9

A regulation baseball field measures 90 feet between each base. What is the distance around the bases in meters?

Alex787 [66]

assuming that the bases are placed correctly, the bases connected draw a square, each side being 90 ft long. We multiply 90 by the amount of sides(4) to find the total distance/perimeter = 360.

For which of the following compound inequalities is there no solution?

Bess [88]

Answer:

(a) $6m \le - 36$ and $m + 24 > 20$

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Which of a to d has no solution

(a) $6m \le - 36$ and $m + 24 > 20$

We have: $m + 24 > 20$

Sole for m

$m >20 - 24$

$m >-4$

$6m \le - 36$

Divide by 6

$m \le -6$

So, we have:

$m \le -6$ and $m >-4$

$m \le -6$ implies that: m = -6,-7,-8,-9.....

$m >-4$ implies that m = -3,-2,-1,0.....

Hence, there is no solution

The sum of two numbers is 18. One number is 2 more that for times the other. Find the numbers.

seropon [69]

Hi there!

Let the first number be represented by X.
The second number (which is 2 more than four times the other), can be represented by 4X + 2.

We can now find the sum of this expression.
X + 4X + 2

Collect terms
5X + 2

The sum of the numbers is 18. Therefore we can set up the following equation.
5X + 2 = 18

Subtract 2.
5X = 16

Divide both sides by 5.
X = 16/5 = 3 1/5.

Therefore, the first number is 3 1/5. To find the second number we must plug in X = 3 1/5 into the expression 4X + 2

4 * (3 1/5) + 2 = 12 4/5 + 2 = 14 4/5
The two numbers are
$3 \frac{1}{5} \: \: and \: \: 14 \frac{4}{5}$

~ Hope this helps you!
