Solve the following system of equations for a and for b:

viktelen [127]

Answer:

$a=3\\b=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

$9a+3b=30\\8a+4b=28$

Let's solve the second equation for a to later on replace it in the first equation.

$8a+4b=28\\8a=28-4b\\a=\frac{28-4b}{8}$

Now plug this into the first equation.

$9a+3b=30\\9(\frac{28-4b}{8})+3b=30$

Distribute the 9

$(\frac{252-36b}{8}) +3b=30$

Break down the fraction.

$\frac{252}{8}-\frac{36b}{8}+3b=30$

Simplify.

$\frac{63}{2}-\frac{9}{2}b+3b=30$

Subtract $\frac{63}{2}$

$-\frac{9}{2}b+3b=30-\frac{63}{2}$

Combine like terms.

$\frac{-9+2*3}{2}b=\frac{30*2-63}{2}$

$\frac{-9+6}{2}b=\frac{60-63}{2}$

$\frac{-3}{2}b=\frac{-3}{2}$

Muliply by the reciprocal or inverted fraction next to b.

$(-\frac{2}{3})(-\frac{3}{2}) b=-\frac{3}{2}(-\frac{2}{3})$

$b=1$

Now plug this value into any of the equations to find the value of a.

$8a+4b=28\\8a+4(1)=28\\8a+4=28\\8a=28-4\\8a=24\\a=\frac{24}{8}\\ a=3$

Answer:

A. Plane B because it was 9.33 miles away

B. 48 units

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Since the airplanes fly at an angle to the runway, their direction forms a triangle with the runway with their height above the ground as the opposite of the angle and their distance from the airport as the hypotenuse.

So for airplane A with 44° angle of departure,

sin44° = y/h where y = height above the ground and h = distance from airport

So h = y/sin44° = 6/sin44° = 8.64 miles

So for airplane B with 40° angle of departure,

sin40° = y/H where y = height above the ground and H = distance from airport

So H = y/sin40° = 6/sin40° = 9.33 miles

Since airplane B is at 9.33 miles away from the airport whereas airplane A is 8.64 miles from the airport, airplane B is farther away.

B. We know that scale factor = new size/original size

Our scale factor = 4 and original size = 12 units. So,

new size = scale factor original size = 4 × 12 = 48 units.

The figures below are made out of circles, semicircles, quarter circles, and a square. Find the area and the perimeter of each f

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Part 1) $A=36(\pi-2)\ cm^2$

Part 2) $P=6(\pi+2\sqrt{2})\ cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure</em></u>

Part 1) Find the area

we know that

The area of the shape is equal to the area of a quarter of circle minus the area of an isosceles right triangle

so

$A=\frac{1}{4}\pi r^{2}-\frac{1}{2}(b)(h)$

we have that the base and the height of triangle is equal to the radius of the circle

$r=12\ cm\\b=12\ cm\\h=12\ cm$

substitute

$A=\frac{1}{4}\pi (12)^{2}-\frac{1}{2}(12)(12)\\A=(36\pi-72)\ cm^2$

simplify

Factor 36

$A=36(\pi-2)\ cm^2$

Part 2) Find the perimeter

The perimeter of the figure is equal to the circumference of a quarter of circle plus the hypotenuse of the right triangle

The circumference of a quarter of circle is equal to

$C=\frac{1}{4}(2\pi r)=\frac{1}{2}\pi r$

substitute the given values

$C=\frac{1}{2}\pi (12)\\C=6\pi\ cm$

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

The hypotenuse of right triangle is equal to

$AC=\sqrt{12^2+12^2}\\AC=\sqrt{288}\ cm$

simplify

$AC=12\sqrt{2}\ cm$

Find the perimeter

$P=(6\pi+12\sqrt{2})\ cm$

simplify

Factor 6

$P=6(\pi+2\sqrt{2})\ cm$

(-2x-1)^2=0 How to solve brackets, please help

malfutka [58]

Not quite sure what you mean by brackets, but you can get the solution to this equation in a few steps:

<span>(-2x - 1)</span>² <span>= 0 ... square root both sides to eliminate the squared binomial
</span>√(-2x - 1)² = √0 ... simplify; the square is canceled out and the root of 0 brings you back to 0
-2x - 1 = 0 ... solve like a two-step equation
-2x = 1
x = -1/2 is your x-value.
