Answer:

The values of x and y are x = 6 and y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

MNOP is a parallelogram its diagonal MO and PN intersected at point A

In any parallelogram diagonals:

  • Bisect each other
  • Meet each other at their mid-point

In parallelogram MNOP

∵ MO and NP are its diagonal

∵ MO intersect NP at point A

- Point A is the mid-point pf them

∴ MO and NP bisect each other

∴ MA = AO

∴ PA = AN

∵ MA = x + 5

∵ AO = y + 2

- Equate them

∴ x + 5 = y + 2 ⇒ (1)

∵ PA = 3x

∵ AN = 2y

- Equate them

∴ 2y = 3x

- Divide both sides by 2

∴ y = 1.5x ⇒ (2)

Now we have a system of equations to solve it

Substitute y in equation (1) by equation (2)

∴ x + 5 = 1.5x + 2

- Subtract 1.5x from both sides

∴ - 0.5x + 5 = 2

- Subtract 5 from both sides

∴ - 0.5x = -3

- Divide both sides by - 0.5

∴ x = 6

- Substitute the value of x in equation (2) to find y

∵ y = 1.5(6)

∴ y = 9

The values of x and y are x = 6 and y = 9

Two trains leave New York at the same time heading in opposite directions. Train A travels at 4/5 the speed of train one. After
grandymaker [24]
<h3>Answer:  </h3><h3>speed of train A = 44 mph</h3>

=============================================

Work Shown:

x = speed of train A

y = speed of train B

"train A travels 4/5 the speed of train B" (I'm assuming "train one" is supposed to read "train B"). So this means x = (4/5)y

distance = rate*time

d = x*7

d = (4/5)y*7 = (28/5)y represents the distance train A travels

d = y*7 = 7y represents the distance train B travels

summing those distances will give us 693

(28/5)y + 7y = 693

5*(  (28/5)y + 7y ) = 5*693

28y + 35y = 3465

63y = 3465

y = 3465/63

y = 55

Train B's speed is 55 mph

4/5 of that is (4/5)y = (4/5)*55 = 4*11 = 44 mph

Train A's speed is 44 mph

Change x + 2y = 6 into slope-intercept form.
mart [117]

Answer:

The slope intercept form involves solving for y, such that the equation looks like this: y = mx + b, where m is a constant representing the slope of the line, and b is a constant representing the value of the y-intercept.

Starting with the equation x+2y=6 and subtracting x from both sides gives 2y =  -x + 6.

If we then divide each term by 2, we get the final result of y = -1/2x + 3.

Here we see that the slope (m) is equal to -1/2, and the y-intercept (b) is 3.
