Answer:

x=9, y=12

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x+4y=3 --------A

x=2y-15----------B

Putting the value of x from B in A

-5(2y-15) +4y=3

-10y+75+4y=3

-6y=3-72

-6y=-72

y=72/6= 12

Putting the value of y =12 in B

x= 2(12)-15

x= 24-15

x=9

One day you warm up for 15 minutes at a pace of 0.1 miles per 25 seconds.

The rule of three or is a way of solving problems of proportionality between three known values and an unknown value, establishing a relationship of proportionality between all of them. If the relationship between the magnitudes is direct, like in this case, the direct rule of three can be applied as follow:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

Then $x=\frac{c*b}{a}$

First, the simple rule of three can be applied in the following way: if 1 minute equals 60 seconds, 15 minutes equals how many seconds?

$seconds=\frac{15 minutes*60 seconds}{1 minute}$

seconds= 900

So now you can apply the following rule of three: if in 25 seconds you travel 0.1 miles, in 900 seconds how many miles do you travel?

$distance=\frac{900 seconds*0.1 miles }{25 seconds}$

distance= 3.6 miles

If you then ride hard for 12 miles, the total distance traveled will be the sum of both:

3.6 miles + 12 miles = 15.6 miles

The total distance covered is 15.6 miles.

X^2+y^2+14x+10y=7 center and radius

Sholpan [36]

$(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2\\\\(a;\ b)-the\ coordinates\ of\ the\ center\\r-the\ radius\\\\==================================\\Use:(k+l)^2=k^2+2kl+l^2\ (*)\\==================================$

$x^2+y^2+14x+10y=7\\\\x^2+14x+y^2+10y=7\\\\x^2+2x\cdot7+y^2+2y\cdot5=7\\\\\underbrace{x^2+2x\cdot7+7^2}_{Use\ (*)}-7^2+\underbrace{y^2+2y\cdot5+5^2}_{Use\ (*)}-5^2=7\\\\(x+7)^2-49+(y+5)^2-25=7\\\\(x+7)^2+(y+5)^2-74=7\ \ \ \ |add\ 74\ to\both\ sides\\\\(x+7)^2+(y+5)^2=81\\\\(x+7)^2+(y+5)^2=9^2$
