(1) Ax + By = C (2) Dx + Ey = F Jim is trying to solve the system of equations. He begins by multiplying equation (1) by D and e

quation (2) by A. Before he can continue, his friend Angela comes by and says, "No, you should have multiplied equation (1) by E and equation (2) by B. You're going to get the wrong answer." Is Angela right? Why or why not?

Answer:

No, Angela is not correct.

As the method Jim was performing will also lead to the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given first equation as:

                  Ax + By = C

Second equation is:

                   Dx + Ey = F

Jim solved the equation as:

He begins by multiplying equation (1) by D and equation (2) by A.

and so by subtracting both the equations he will obtain a value of y.

and then put the y-value in any of the given two equations to obtain the value of x.

Angela Method:

you should have multiplied equation (1) by E and equation (2) by B.

and when she will subtract both the equations she will get the value of x first and then when she will put the value of x in any of the given equation she will obtain the value of y.

But both will get a value for x and y.

Hence, the method Jim was performing was also correct.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:  

No; Jim is trying to eliminate x, while she is trying to eliminate y. Both ways will work.

How to solve this and explain
Goryan [66]
You first wanna find <BAD, because if AB is perpendicular to AC, then it has to form a 90 degree angle. So 90-56=34 degrees. So now you have a 34 & 63 degrees in the ABD triangle. In a triangle, all angles add up to equal 180 degrees. So 34+63+x=180...and x=83. So <ADB= 83 degrees. Now you want to find angle ADC...which you can just subtract 83 from 180 (because <ADB & <ADC forms 180 degree angle). You will then get 97 as angle ADC. So, the same thing as before, add up 56+97+x=180, because all angles (in the triangle ADC) add up to be 180 degrees. X will then equal 27 degrees. Angle ACB= 27 degrees.

I need help with number 5 please

C(t) = $2t + $8

This tells us that the basic cost of the pizza is $8, with no toppings, and that each topping costs an additional $2.

To graph this, plot a dot at (0,$8).  Now move y our pencil point 1 unit to the right and then 2 units up.  Plot a dot at this new location.  Now draw a straight line connection (0, $8) and this new location (which is   (1, $10)  ).

erastova [34]
The domain is the x-values of a function, which are also known as the input. When writing down the domain, you write the numbers from least to greatest. Therefore, the correct answer is A.

Use the following basketball team's scores for one season to answer the following question 44,43,42,40,42,45,39,38,18 What's the
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

The mean is 39

The median is 42

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the best measure of center for the above data because half of the values are less than the median and half of the values are more than the median. It's probably the best measure of center to use in a skewed distribution.

The measure of variability is the range because is the simplest measure of variability to calculate but can be misleading if the dataset contains extreme values.

The variability is 67.25

This is how I did it
