Why is everything due tomorrow xD. Also im sorry but I dont understand this either.
> multiply the second equation by 2 and add it to the first equation.
2(-6x - 7y = -10)
-12x -14y = -20
8x + 14y = 4
-12x - 14y = -20
--------------------
- 4x + 0 = - 16
x = -16/-4
x = 4
> use x = 4 in either equation to find y
8(4) + 14y = 4
32 + 14y = 4
14y = 4 - 32
14y = -28
y = -28/14
y = -2
Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing we need to do is to make sure our equation is in standard form. The given equation is not in standard form.
3x²-2x=0
Now that the equation is in standard form, we can find our A, B, C to see which quadratic equation is correct.
A=3
B=-2
C=0
We can automatically eliminate D because the first value is -3 when it is supposed to be -(-2). Also, the denominator is supposed to be 2a. We know that A=3. The denominator should be 2(3), not 2(-2).
Next, we can eliminate B and C. For the 4ac, we know it has to be 4(3)(0) because A=3 and C=0. B and C have given 4(3)(2) and 4(3)(1), respectively. This does not match A=3 and C=0.
Therefore, A is the correct answer.
By counting grid squares, we see the library is 5 miles north and 6 miles east of Ashley's house. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can find the straight-line distance to be
.. d = √(5^2 +6^2)
.. = √(25 +36)
.. = √61 . . . . . miles
.. ≈ 7.81 . . . . miles
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of years it will take the two colleges to have the same enrollment.
In 2000, there were 12900 students at college A, with a projected enrollment increase of 900 students per year. This means that the expected number of students at college A in x years time is
12900 + 900x
In the same year, there were 25,000 students at college B, with a projected enrollment decline of 700 students per year. This means that the expected number of students at college B in x years time is
25000 - 700x
For both colleges to have the same enrollment,
12900 + 900x = 25000 - 700x
900x + 700x = 25000 - 12900
1600x = 12100
x = 12100/1600
x = 7.56
Approximately 8 years
The year would be 2000 + 8 = 2008
