If Rachel runs 6 miles in 45 minutes, she runs at a rate of 2/15 miles per minute. That means it would take her 30 minutes to run 4 miles.

2.the solution set of x +y =5 and x-y =3

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

Check the solution below

Step-by-step explanation:

2) Given the equation

x +y =5... 1 and

x-y =3 ... 2

Add both equations

x+x = 5+3

2x = 8

x = 8/2

x = 4

Substitute x = 4 into 1:

From 1: x+y = 5

4+y= 5

y = 5-4

y = 1

3) Given

x+3y =15 ... 1

2x+7y=19 .... 2

From 2: x = 15-3y

Substitute into 2

2(15-3y)+7y = 19

30-6y+7y = 19

30+y = 19

y = 19-30

y = -11

Substitute y=-11 into x = 15-3y

x =15-3(-11)

x = 15+33

x = 48

The solution set is (48, -11)

4) given

x/2 +y/3 =0 and x+2y=1

From 1

(3x+2y)/6 = 0

3x+2y = 0.. 3

x+2y= 1... 4

From 4: x = 1-2y

Substutute

3(1-2y) +2y = 0

3-6y+2y = 0

3 -4y = 0

4y = 3

y = 3/4

Since x = 1-2y

x = 1-2(3/4)

x = 1-3/2

x= -1/2

The solution set is (-1/2, 3/4)

5) Given

5.x=1/2 and y =x +1 then solution is

We already know the vkue of x

Get y

y= x+1

y = 1/2 + 1

y = 3/2

Hence the solution set is (1/2, 3/2)

6) Given

3x +y =5 and x -3y =5

From 3; x = 5+3y

Substitute into 1;

3(5+3y)+y = 5

15+9y+y = 5

10y = 5-15

10y =-10

y = -1

Get x;

x = 5+3y

x = 5+3(-1)

x = 5-3

x = 2

Hence two solution set is (2,-1)

Calculate the arithmetic sequence in which a9=17 and the common difference is d=-2.1

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

$S_{31}=71.3$

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given by the formula,

$U_n=a_1+(n-1)d$

We were given that the 9th term is $17$ .

$\Rightarrow 17=a_1+(9-1)(-2.1)$

$\Rightarrow 17=a_1+(8)\times(-2.1)$

$\Rightarrow 17=a_1-\frac{84}{5}$

$\Rightarrow 17+\frac{84}{5}=a_1$

$\Rightarrow a_1=\frac{169}{5}$

The sum of the first n-terms is given by the formula,

$S_n=\frac{n}{2}(2a_1+(n-1)d)$

To find $S_{31}$ , we substitute $n=31$ , $a_1=\frac{169}{5}$ and $d=-2.1$ .

$\Rightarrow S_{31}=\frac{31}{2}(2(\frac{169}{5}+(31-1)(-2.1))$

$\Rightarrow S_{31}=\frac{31}{2}(2(\frac{169}{5}+(30)(-2.1))$

$\Rightarrow S_{31}=\frac{31}{2}(\frac{23}{5})$

$\Rightarrow S_{31}=\frac{713}{10}$

$\Rightarrow S_{31}=71.3$

The correct answer is D

How to I put x>-2.5 on a number line?

AysviL [449]

Answer:

Open circle. Points right

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason for it is because this symbol > represents greater than when it comes to inequalities. When it is an open circle that means that you are not including the number. So that also means that the -2.5 is not included to the inequality equation but it can be any other number other than that number.

ABCD∼EFGH AD=45 in. , EH=75 in. , and AB=30 in. What is EF ?

Marrrta [24]

EF = 50 in.

In similar figures, corresponding sides are proportional. We use the similarity statement ABCD~EFGH to write a proportion:

$\frac{AB}{EF}=\frac{AD}{EH}
\\
\\ \frac{30}{x}=\frac{45}{75}$

Cross multiply the proportion:
45*x = 75*30
45x = 2250

Divide both sides by 45:
45x/45 = 2250/45
x = 50
