The Cartesian equivalent of the polar coordinates (r, theta) is
(r cos t, r sin t), where t = theta.
So, (2, 3pi/4) becomes
(2 cos(3pi/4), 2 sin(3pi/4))
(2 • -sqrt{2}/2, 2 • sqrt{2}/2)
Answer: (-sqrt{2}, sqrt{2})
Done.
Note: sqrt = square root for short.
Answer:
(2, 5 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x + 3y = 19 → (1)
6x + 2y = 22 → (2)
Multiplying (1) by - 3 and adding to (2) will eliminate the x- term
- 6x - 9y = - 57 → (3)
Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate x
0 - 7y = - 35
- 7y = - 35 ( divide both sides by - 7 )
y = 5
Substitute y = 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x
Substituting into (1)
2x + 3(5) = 19
2x + 15 = 19 ( subtract 15 from both sides )
2x = 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 2
solution is (2, 5 )
Because X and Y are directly proportional, this means what ever happens to one, the same thing happens to the other one.
The correct answer would be: it depends on the starting value of x.
If the pattern goes 26, 57, 88 you can find the difference between each number to see how much it's going up by each time. 57 - 26 = 31 and 88 - 57 = 31
That means each week the number of boxes of a new cereal increases by 31, or +31
