2x -4y=8 and 3x + 6y = 36

Mathematics
1 answer:
Harlamova29_29 [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:x=8 and y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find 2x-4y=8 and 3x+6y=36

Solve simultaneously

Using elimination method

6x-12y=24

6x+12y=72

To eliminate x

-24y=-48

Divide through by -24

y=2

To get x

Substitute for y in equation 1

2x-4(2)=8

2x=8+8

2x=16

Divide through by x

x=8

laurens suv was detected exceeding the posted speed limit of 60 kilometers per hour , how many kilometers would she have been tr
Vlada [557]

Answer:

60 kilometers per hour (kmph) over the limit

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed limit is 60 kmph

Let's find his original rate:

We know D = RT

Where

D is the distance, in km

R is the rate, in kmph

T is the time in hours

He went 10 km in 5 minutes, so we need the time in hours, first. That would be:

5/60 = 1/12 hour

So, putting into formula, we find rate:

D = RT

10 = R(1/12)

R = 10/(1/12)

R = 10 * 12

R = 120 kmph

He was going over by:

120 - 60 = 60 kmph

Plzzz help me im having alot of trouble understanding this question does some one understand if you do plz help fast!!!
juin [17]

Answer:

1/2 - 3(1/2 + 1)²

simplify the expression (1/2 + 1)

1/2 - 3•(3/2)²

using PEMDAS, we see we have to evaluate the exponent first

(3/2)² = 9/4

rewrite the equation

1/2 - 3 • (9/4)

multiply 3 by (9/4)

1/2 - (27/4)

subtract

-25/4

(1 + 1/3)² - 2/9

simplify the expression (1 + 1/3)

(4/3)² - 2/9

using PEMDAS, we see we have to evaluate the exponent first

(4/3)² = 16/9

rewrite the equation

(16/9) - (2/9)

subtract

14/9

A ball is hurled in the air such that its horizontal (x) and vertical (y) shifts are given by the functions x(t) = 20t and y(t)
Viefleur [7K]

x(t) = 20t

y(t) = 40t - 5t^2

Since we are only interested in comparing the two at time t = 5 seconds, we plug in 5 everywhere we see the variable t and then compare x and y

x(5) = 20(5) becomes x(5) = 100

y(5) = 40(5) - 5(5)^2 becomes y(5) = 200 - 125 and then y(5) = 75

The ratio of y to x can be expressed as: y/x, so we can say the ratio is equal to 75/100 or 0.75

Answer: 0.75
