Estimate the solution to the system of equations.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nonamiya [84]4 years ago

Answer:

x= -7/5 y=8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. choose a variable to eliminate (i chose 6)

2. multiply the first equation by 2 and the second equation by 3

3. now you have

-6x+6y=18

6x-21y=-42

and the x's can now cancel out when you add the equations together

4. after adding the equations, you get

-15y=-24

5. solve for y (y= 8/5)

6. now plug in 8/5 for the y in one of the original equations to solve for x. (i chose the first one)

7. -3x+3(8/5)=9

-3x+24/5=9

-3x=21/5

x= -7/5

Answer:

The minimum value of f(x) is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

  • To find the minimum value of the function f(x), you should find the value of x which has the minimum value of y, so we will use the differentiation to find it
  • Differentiate f(x) with respect to x and equate it by 0 to find x, then substitute the value of x in f(x) to find the minimum value of f(x)

∵ f(x) = 2x² - 4x + 4

→ Find f'(x)

∵ f'(x) = 2(2)x^{2-1} - 4(1)x^{1-1} + 0

∴ f'(x) = 4x - 4

→ Equate f'(x) by 0

∵ f'(x) = 0

∴ 4x - 4 = 0

→ Add 4 to both sides

∵ 4x - 4 + 4 = 0 + 4

∴ 4x = 4

→ Divide both sides by 4

∴ x = 1

→ The minimum value is f(1)

∵ f(1) = 2(1)² - 4(1) + 4

∴ f(1) = 2 - 4 + 4

∴ f(1) = 2

∴ The minimum value of f(x) is 2

The small piston of a hydraulic press has an area of 2.0 cm^2 and the large piston has an area of 16 cm^2. If the small piston h
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

32N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

A1= 2cm^2

A2= 16cm^2

F1= 4N

F2=???

Applying the formula

Presure= force/area

P=F/A

F1/A1=F2/A2

substitute

4/2= F2/16

cross multiply

F2= (16*4)/2

F2= 64/2

F2= 32N

Hence the output force is 32N

If y = -7x 3 what is the value of y when x = -1
Len [333]
You would do... 7*-1*3 (* is times) And that is -21.
So y = -21

Solve for x and y<br><br>Both questions please ❤️​
zimovet [89]

Answer:

1. x=18, y=6\sqrt{10}

2. x=108, y=180

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the right triangle drawn to the hypotenuse is the geometric mean of two segments of the hypotenuse (two legs' projections)

1. Use this property, so

CD^2=AD\cdot BD\\ \\6^2=2\cdot x\\ \\36=2x\\ \\x=18

Consider right triangle BCD. By the Pythagorean theorem,

BC^2=BD^2+CD^2\\ \\y^2=18^2+6^2\\ \\y^2=324+36\\ \\y^2=360\\ \\y=\sqrt{360}=6\sqrt{10}

2. Consider right triangleGM*. By the Pythagorean theorem,

G*^2=GM^2+M*^2\\ \\240^2=GM^2+192^2\\ \\GM^2=240^2-192^2=(240-192)(240+192)=48\cdot 432=144^2\\ \\GM=144

Use this property to find x:

GM^2=192\cdot x\\ \\144^2=192\cdot x\\ \\x=\dfrac{144^2}{192}=108

Consider right triangle GMCup. By the Pythagorean theorem,

y^2=x^2+GM^2\\ \\y^2=108^2+144^2\\ \\y^2=32,400\\ \\y=180

Solve for x : 1/a+b+x =1/a+1/b+1/x
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

  x ∈ {-a, -b}

Step-by-step explanation:

  1/(a+b+x) = 1/a +1/b +1/x . . . . given

  abx = bx(a+b+x) +ax(a+b+x) +ab(a+b+x) . . . . multiply by abx(a+b+x)

  (a+b)x^2 +(a+b)^2x +ab(a+b) = 0 . . . . . subtract abx

  x^2 + (a+b)x +ab = 0 . . . . . divide by (a+b)

This is a quadratic equation in x. It will have two solutions, as given by the quadratic formula.

  x = (-(a+b) ±√((a+b)^2 -4(1)(ab))/(2(1)) = (-(a+b) ± |a -b|)/2

Without loss of generality, we can assume a ≥ b, so |a -b| ≥ 0. Then ...

  x = (-a -b -a +b)/2 = -a

  x = (-a -b +a -b)/2 = -b

There are two solutions: x ∈ {-a, -b}.
