Answer:

(-9/7,-26/7)

[more detailed at the bottom of the explanation]

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming that this is a system of equations...

So, knowing that y is equal to x + 5, you would plug that in the second equation and find x. Then you would plug x and find y.

—————

Step 1)

Equation 1:

y = (x + 5)

Equation 2:

5x + 2y = 1

Equation 2 can also be written as:

5x + 2(x+5) = 1

I wrote x+5 instead of y because the first equation tells us that y is equal to x + 5.

—————

Step 2)

Solve for x .

5x + 2(x+5) = 1

5x + 2x + 10 = 1

7x + 10 = 1

7x = 1 - 10

7x = -9

x = -9/7

—————

Step 3)

Plug the x value back in the first equation.

y = -9/7 + 5

y = -26/7

—————

Solution:

x = -9/7

y = -26/7

In ordered pair form:

(-9/7,-26/7)

The expression 2(l + w) is used to calculate the perimeter of a rectangle, where l is length and w is width. If the length is Fr

Art [367]

Answer:

Perimeter = 1 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

$length \ is \ a \ fraction \ 2 \ over \ 3 = \frac{2}{3}\\\\Width \ is \ a \ fraction \ 1 \ over \ 3 = \frac{1}{3}\\\\Perimeter = 2 ( l + w)\\$

$= 2 \times (\frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{3}) \\\\=2 \times (\frac{3}{3})\\\\= 1 unit$

What scale factor was applied to the first rectangle to get the resulting image? The answer is a decimal. The big rectangle is 2

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Scale factor is always (new/original)

so it depends which rectangle came first. if it started as large and was dilated to the smaller one, then the ratio is (.5/2.5) which simplifies to 1/5 or 0.2.

How do you convert decimals between standard and expanded form

nordsb [41]

Answer:

Heres how:

Step-by-step explanation:

Example, 7.831 , here you can see that there are 3 numbers relating to a decimal. the 1 by itself is 0.1000, 3 by itself is 0.300, and the 8 by itself is 0.80 . If you add this, you get 0.831. now add the whole number, Seven. if there is more digits in the decimal, then just add another zero.

It is an unfair coin with unknown probability of head and tail. Can you generate even odds using this coin?

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Yes, it can be generated if $p = \frac{n}{n+1}$ , where n is a positive even integer.

Step-by-step explanation:

An odds for an event, is the probability or chance that this event will occur, divided by the probability that it will not occur.

Assume that the probability of getting tail when throwing the coin is $p$ , therefore, the probability of getting a head is $(1-p)$ and the odds for the event of getting tail is $\frac{p}{1-p}$ .
