Mathematics

melomori [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

<u>x = 8 and y = 5</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is as following:

what is x and y for the following system of equations:

50x + 30 y = 550 ⇒ (1)

44x + 36 y = 532 ⇒ (2)

Subtract (1) - (2)

∴ 6x - 6y = 18

Divide both sides by 6

∴ x - y = 3

∴ x = 3 + y  ⇒ (3)

Substitute with the value of x at (1)

50(3+y) + 30y = 550

Solve for y

150 + 50y + 30y = 550

80y = 550 - 150 = 400

∴ y = 400/80 = 5

Substitute with the value of y at (3)

∴ x = 3 + y = 3 + 5 = 8

<u>So, x = 8 and y = 5</u>

Mr. lumber got asked his third grade class to name the rule for the following number patterns.
Pie

You always get from one term to the next by adding 6:

573 + 6 = 579

579 + 6 = 585

585 + 6 = 591

591 + 6 = 597

So, the rule is "add 6"

One square grid is formed of 400 squares. Another square grid is formed of 256 squares. If the two grids join with a third at th
Sav [38]
One square grid has an area of 400.
Another square grid has an area of 256.

The area of the third grid can be:

(squares in third grid) + 256 = 400

OR

256 + 400 = (squares in third grid)

We get this by applying the Pythagorean theorem.

So, the squares in the third grid can either be 144 or 656. And we only have 144 as an option, so that is your answer.

Your final answer is D. 144.
