<span>(1) 2x + y = 9
</span><span>(2) 8x – 2y = 6
</span>
You can eliminate the x or the y. I am going to eliminate the y

First multiply the first equation 2x + y = 9  by 2.
2x + y = 9
2(2x + y = 9)
4x +2y = 18
Now we have a new equation that we can use and we can eliminate the y from the other equation because +2y - 2y = 0. Lets do that now and solve for  x.

4x +2y = 18
8x – 2y = 6
12x = 24
12x / 12 = 24 / 12
x = 2
So we found the value of x, which is 2. To find y, insert 2 into one of the original equations. I am going to use 2x + y = 9
2x + y = 9
2(2) + y = 9
4 + y = 9
-4 + 4 + y = 9 - 4
y = 9 - 4
y = 5
y = 5.

Our point is at (x, y) = (2,5)
x = 2
y = 5

Lynna [10]

Answer:

The cost must be $32 since that is the only cost possible for the 1st deal  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C represent the total cost of each deal  

Let T be the number of trips down the water slide

C = 32        for the 1st deal since the cost is the same regardless of how much she rides  

C = 18 + T  for the 2nd deal

To find when the two costs are equal set them equal to each other and solve for T

32 = 18 + T

T = 14  trips

The cost must be $32 since that is the only cost possible for the 1st deal

If u +t=5 and u – t = 2, what is the value of (u – t)(u2 – ť)?<br> ?
raketka [301]

Answer:

The Heaviside step function, or the unit step function, usually denoted by H or θ (but sometimes u, 1 or ), is a discontinuous function, named after Oliver Heaviside (1850–1925), whose value is zero for negative arguments and one for positive arguments.

Step-by-step explanation:

L at time ť will meet at the point z " given by the equations : z " = - ( c + U ) t ... + B ) t = ť + t " = 2y - t = tı ( 93 ) Therefore , we do not recover the value 2t = 2L / c ... if the extinction time is not zero in equation 92 , one can verify the equality t ' + t ... the mirror located on the arm covers the distance Ut ' during the time t

Two charged particles, Q1, and Q2, are a distance r apart with Q2 = 5Q1 Compare the forces they exert on one another when F1 is
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

d) F2 = -F1.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Coulomb's law of forces on electrostatic charges, the force of attraction is proportional to the product of their charges, and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.

What this law means is that both particles will experience an equal amount of force on them, due to the presence of the other particle. This force is not just as a result of their individual charges, but as a result of the product of their charges. Also, the force is a vector quantity that must have a direction alongside its magnitude, and the force on the two particles will always act in opposite direction, be it repulsive or attractive.
