A roller coaster ride holds a total of 48 passengers. The ratio of males to females on the ride is 5 : 7. Let xx represent the n

umber of males on the ride. Let yy represent the number of females on the ride. Which two linear equations form a system that you can use to find the number of males and the number of females on the ride

First, consider the total male and female passengers which is 48. Equation 1 can be expressed as,
                                   xx + yy = 48
Then, for the ratio,
                               xx / yy = 5/7
Cross-multiplying the equation. The equation becomes,
                                              7xx = 5yy
The two linear equations are therefore,
                        (1) xx + yy = 48
                        (2) 7xx - 5yy = 0

7 + 2y = 8x 3x - 2y = 0 Solve the system of equations by substitution. (70/3, 140/9) (7/5, 21/10) no solution coincident
Wittaler [7]
So we have the system of equations:
7+2y=8x equation (1)
3x-2y=0 equation (2)

To use substitution, we are going to solve for one variable in one of our equations, and then we are going to replace that value in the other equation:
Solving for x in equation (2):
3x-2y=0
3x=2y
x= \frac{2}{3}y equation (3)

Replacing equation (3) in equation (1):
7+2y=8x
7+2y=8( \frac{2}{3} y)
7+2y= \frac{16}{3} y
7= \frac{10}{3} y
y= \frac{7}{ \frac{10}{3} }
y= \frac{21}{10} equation (4)

Replacing equation (4) in equation (3):
x= \frac{2}{3}y
x=( \frac{2}{3} )( \frac{21}{10} )
x= \frac{7}{5}

We can conclude that the solution of our system of equations is <span>(7/5, 21/10)</span>

Which function represents a translation of the parent cubic function 8 units to the left? h(x) = x3 + 8 h(x) = x3 – 8 h(x) = (x
Ksju [112]

Using the definition of the Vertical shifts of graphs of the function :

"Suppose c>0,

To graph y=f(x)+c, shift the graph of y=f(x) upward c units.

To graph y=f(x)-c, shift the graph of y=f(x) downward c units"

Again we recall the definition of Horizontal shifts of graphs:

" suppose c>0,

the graph y=f(x-c), shift the graph of y=f(x) to the right by c units

the graph y=f(x+c), shift the graph of y=f(x) to the left by c units. "

consider f(x)=x^3 is the parent function.

h(x)=x^3+8 shifts the graph f(x)=x^3 upward by 8 units

h(x)=x^3-8 shifts the graph f(x)=x^3downward by 8 units

h(x)=(x+8)^3 shifts the graph f(x)=x^3 left by 8 units

h(x)=(x-8)^3 shifts the graph f(x)=x^3 right by 8 units.

Answer:

  y +1 = -3(x -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given point is (3, -1), and the given slope is -3. The form suggests you want the point-slope form of the equation for the line:

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

Using the given values, the equation is ...

  y -(-1) = -3(x -3)

  y +1 = -3(x -3)
