What is the solution for the system of equations?

1 answer:

8 0

The solution is at what point the two lines intersect.
Plug y into the other equation to get: 5x-4(5-3x)=-3
Multiply it out: 5x+12x-20=-3
Combine like terms and add 20 to both sides: 17x=17
Divide both sides by 17: x=1
Now plug the x value back into any equation to get the y value.
So you get y=5-3(1) --> y=2
The solution is (1, 2)

Complete the identity

spin [16.1K]

Answer: $cos(\pi-x)=-cos(x)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to apply the following identity:

$cos(A - B) = cos A*cos B + sinA*sin B$

Then, applying this, you know that for $cos(\pi-x)$ :

$cos(\pi-x)=cos(\pi)*cos(x)+sin(\pi)*sin(x)$

We need to remember that:

$cos(\pi)=-1$ and $sin(\pi)=0$

Therefore, we need to substitute these values into $cos(\pi-x)=cos(\pi)*cos(x)+sin(\pi)*sin(x)$ .

Then, you get:

$cos(\pi-x)=(-1)*cos(x)+0*sin(x)$

$cos(\pi-x)=-1cos(x)+0$

$cos(\pi-x)=-cos(x)$

Dale works at a mattress store, and makes a salary plus commission. He has a $500 weekly salary and makes a 5% commission for sa

Anni [7]

Answer:

1. $\( f\circ g(x)=0.05x-150$

2. $\( g\circ f(x)=0.05x-3000$

3. The first one represents Dale's commission

Explanation:

1. The composition of the function

$f\circ g(x)=f(g(x))$

means that you first apply the function g(x) and then f(x) on the output of g(x).

That is:

f(x) = 0.05x
g(x) = x - 3000

$f(g(x)=0.05(x - 3000)$

$f(g(x))=0.05x-150$

2. The composition of the function

$g\circ f(x)=g(f(x))$

means that you first apply the function f(x) and then g(x) on the output of f(x).

That is:

$g(f(x))=((0.05x)-3000)=0.05x-3000$

3. Which one represents Dale's commission

To calculate Dales's commision you must subtract $3,000 from the sales, to find the sales over $3000. That is: x - 3,000, which is the function g(x).

Therefore, you first use g(x).

Then, you must multiply the output of g(x) by 0.05 to find the 5% of the sales over $3,000. That is: 0.05(g((x)) = 0.05(x - 3000) = 0.05x - 150.

Therefore, the composition that represents Dale's commission is the first one:

$f(g(x)=0.05(x - 3000)$

$f(g(x))=0.05x-150$

A target with a diameter of 14cm has 4 scoring zones by concentric circles. The diameter of the center circle is 2 cm. The width

Leni [432]

Answer:

$48.98\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The probability that it will hit a point in the outer (yellow) ring is equal to divide the area of the yellow ring by the total area of the target

step 1

Find the area of the yellow ring

$A=\pi [7^{2} -5^{2}]$

$A=24\pi\ cm^{2}$

step 2

Find the total area of the target

$A=\pi [7^{2}]$

$A=49\pi\ cm^{2}$

step 3

Find the probability

$24\pi/49\pi=0.4898$

Convert to percentage

$0.4898*100=48.98\%$
