Solve the system of linear equations below. 4x - 3y = 17 5x + 4y = 60

1 answer:

5 0

4x-3y=17......(1)
5x+4y=60......(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 4 and equation (2) by 3:-

16x - 12y = 68
15x + 12y = 180

Adding these 2 equations:_

31x = 248
x = 248/31 = 8

Now substitute x = 8 in equation (1):-

4(8) - 3y = 17
32-3y = 17
-3y = -15
y = -15/-3 = 5

So solution is x=8,y=5

Given that tan2theta=3/8,what is the value of sec theta

frez [133]

There's an identity

sec^2 x = 1 + tan^2 x

so here we have

sec^2 theta = 1 + (3/8)^2 = 73/64

sec theta = sqrt 73 / 8 or 1.068 to nearest thousandth

Make q the subject of the formula 5(q+p)=4+8

siniylev [52]

Answer:

q = $\frac{4+3p}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

5(q + p) = 4 + 8p ← distribute the left side

5q + 5p = 4 + 8p ( subtract 5p from both sides )

5q = 4 + 3p ( divide both sides by 5 )

q = $\frac{4+3p}{5}$
