Dawn has been using two bank accounts to save money for a car. the difference between account 1 and account 2 is $100. if she us

es 3/8 of account 1 and 7/8 of account 2, dawn will have a down payment of $2,000. solve the system of equations to find the total amount of money dawn has in each account. a – b = 100 a b = 2,000 dawn has $ in account 1 and $ in account 2.

1) name the variables:

 - amount in account 1 "a"
 - amount in account 2 "b"

2) trtanslate the statements into equations:

<span>- the difference between account 1 and account 2 is $100.

=> a - b = 100

-  if she uses 3/8 of account 1 and 7/8 of account 2, Dawn will have a down payment of $2,000.

=> (3/8)a + (7/8)b = 2000

3) solve the system of equations

(1) a - b = 100
(2) (3/8)a + (7/8b) = 2000

Steps:

- multiply equation (1) by 7 and equaton (2) by 8

=>

(1) 7a - 7b = 700
(2) 3a + 7b = 16,000

- add the two equations

=>

7a + 3a - 7b + 7b = 700 + 16,000

- combine like terms:

10a = 16,700

- divide by 10:

a = 16,700 / 10 = 1670

- use equation (1) to find b:

a - b = 100 => b = a - 100 = 1670 - 100 = 1570

Answer: Dawn has $ 1670 in account 1 and $ 1570 in account 2. </span>

Find the solutions to sin2(x) + cos(x) = 1, keeping 0 ≤ x &lt; 2π
frozen [14]
Sin2(x) +cos(x)=1
from the relation: (sin2(x) +cos2(x) =1 )
so , sin2(x)=1-cos2(x)
by subs. in the main eqn.
1-cos2(x) + cos(x) =1
by simplify the eqn.
cos(x) -cos2(x)=0
take cos(x) as a common factor
cos(x)* (1-cos(x))=0
then cos(x)=0 && cos(x)=1
cos(x)=0 if x= pi/2
& cos(x) = 1 if x = 0 , 2*pi
so the solution is x= {0,pi/2 , 2*pi}

URGENT!!!! What is the distance from (−2, 4) to (0, −6)? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. 9.23 units 10.20 units 10.9
serg [7]
The distance between two points knowing theirs coordinates:

AB =√[(x₂-x₁)² +(y₂-y₁)²]; ===>A(-2,4) & B(0,-6) Given
                                              A(x₁,y₁) & B(y₂,y₁)

AB =√[(0-(-2))²+(-6-4)²] =√(104) = 10.198 ≈ 10.2

What are the coordinates of D’ when the quadrilateral is reflected across the line y = x? On a coordinate plane, quadrilateral A
natita [175]

Answer:

D' (1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

When reflected across the y = x line, the "x" and "y" coordinates switch.

If D is (3, 1), then:

x = 3

y = 1

Switch the "x" and "y" values, and rewrite as (x, y).

x = 1

y = 3

D' (1, 3)

Find the slope of the points (2, 13) and (8, 1)
Pie
-2

y2-y1/x2-x1
take the y coordinate of the second pair of coordinates and subtract it by the y coordinate of the first pair, then take the x coordinate from the second pair of coordinates and subtract it from the x coordinate from the first pair. then put your answer from the y coordinate over the answer from the x coordinates. 1 - 13 / 8 - 2, then you get -12/6, which simplifies to 2.

Hope this helps :)
