What is the solution of the system? 10x – 2y = 24 6x+2y = 8

Mathematics
1 answer:
Stels [109]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: x = 2 , y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

10x - 2y = 24 ..................... equation 1

6x + 2y = 8 ........................ equation 2

solving the system of linear equation by elimination method , add equation 1 and 2

16x = 32

divide through by 16

x = 2

substitute x = 2 into equation 1 to find the value of y

10(2) - 2y = 2y

20 - 2y = 2y

20 = 4y

y = 5

The number 4 is in both the domain and the range of the function A(n).
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

the domain is the set of numbers you can plug in, and the range is what comes out

4 is shown in both ovals, but we see that there is no arrow pointing from the left oval to the 4 in the right oval, meaning that no value in interval [1,5] has a value of 4.

A common inhabitant of human intestines is the bacterium Escherichia coli, named after the German pediatrician Theodor Escherich
Feliz [49]

Answer:

a. Relative Growth rate = 10% (6/60 * 100)

b. Number of cells after t hours = 50 * 1.1^t

c. Rate of growth after 6 hours = 77.2% (1.1⁶ - 1)

d. The number of cells after 6 hours is

= 89 cells

Step-by-step explanation:

A cell divides into two cells every 20 minutes

In one hour, the cell will divide into 60/20 * 2 = 6 cells

Each cell growth 6 cells per hour

Initial population of a culture = 50 cells

t = time in hours

a. Relative Growth rate = 10% (6/60 * 100)

b. Number of cells after t hours = 50 * 1.1^t

c. Rate of growth after 6 hours = 77.2% (1.1⁶ - 1)

d. The number of cells after 6 hours = initial population * growth factor

= 50 * 1.772

= 88.6

= 89 cells

using compound interest, how long does it take to double a 1000 dollar investment that pays 6.5% annual interest, compounded mon
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

11 years approx

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

P=$1000

A=2000

R=6.5%

T= ?

Calculate time, solve for t

t = ln(A/P) / r

substitute

t=ln(2000/1000)/0.065

t=ln(2)/0.065

t=0.693/0.065

t=10.66

Hence the time is 11 years approx

A company manufactures running shoes and basketball shoes. The total revenue (in thousands of dollars) from x1 units of running
Alborosie

Answer:

x_1 =2 , x_2=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the revenue function given by R(x_1,x_2) = -5x_1^2-8x_2^2 -2x_1x_2+34x_1+116x_2. We want to find the values of each of the variables such that the gradient( i.e the first partial derivatives of the function) is 0. Then, we have the following (the explicit calculations of both derivatives are omitted).

\frac{dR}{dx_1} = -10x_1-2x_2+34 =0

\frac{dR}{dx_2} = -16x_2-2x_1+116 =0

From the first equation, we get, x_2 = \frac{-10x_1+34}{2}.If we replace that in the second equation, we get

-16\frac{-10x_1+34}{2} -2x_1+116=0= 80x_1-2x_1+116-272= 78x_1-156

From where we get that x_1 = \frac{156}{78}=2. If we replace that in the first equation, we get

x_2 = \frac{-10\cdot 2 +34}{2}=\frac{14}{2} = 7

So, the critical point is (x_1,x_2) = (2,7). We must check that it is a maximum. To do so, we will use the Hessian criteria. To do so, we must calculate the second derivatives and the crossed derivatives  and check if the criteria is fulfilled in order for it to be a maximum. We get that

\frac{d^2R}{dx_1dx_2}= -2 = \frac{d^2R}{dx_2dx_1}

\frac{d^2R}{dx_{1}^2}=-10, \frac{d^2R}{dx_{2}^2}=-16

We have the following matrix,  

\left[\begin{matrix} -10 & -2 \\ -2 & -16\end{matrix}\right].

Recall that the Hessian criteria says that, for the point to be a maximum, the determinant of the whole matrix should be positive and the element of the matrix that is in the upper left corner should be negative. Note that the determinant of the matrix is (-10)\cdot (-16) - (-2)(-2) = 156>0 and that -10<0. Hence, the criteria is fulfilled and the critical point is a maximum
