First, let's multiply the first equation by two on the both sides:
<span>8x + 7y = 39         /2
</span>⇒ 16x + 14y = 78

Now, the system is:
<span>16x + 14y = 78
</span><span>4x – 14y = –68
</span>
After adding this up in the column:
(16x + 4x) + (14y - 14y) = 78 - 68
20x = 10
⇒ x = 10/20 = 1/2


y can be calculated by replacin the x:
<span>8x + 7y = 39
</span>⇒ 8 · 1/2 + 7y = 39
4 + 7y = 39
7y = 39 - 4
7y = 35
⇒ y = 35 ÷ 7 = 5

Answer:

Multiplying the first equation by 2 and adding the equations results in 20x = 10. The solution of the system is (1/2, 5). The system 8x + 7y = 39 and 20x = 10 is formed by replacing 4x –14y = –68 by a sum of it and a multiple of 8x + 7y = 39.

Sample Response: Using the linear combination method, you can multiply the first equation by 2 and add the equations to get 20x = 10. Dividing both sides by 20, x = 1/2. To solve for y, substitute 1/2 for x in the equation 8x + 7y = 39 to get 4 + 7y = 39. Solving this equation, y = 5. Checking this in the other equation, 4(1/2) – 14(5) = –68 results in 2 – 70 = –68 or –68 = –68. The solution of the system shown is (1/2, 5). The system 8x + 7y = 39 and 20x = 10 is formed by replacing 4x –14y = –68 by a sum of it and a multiple of 8x + 7y = 39. Since 20(1/2) = 10, the system 8x + 7y = 39 and 20x = 10 also has a solution of (1/2, 5).

If $5,000 is borrowed with an interest of 12.3% compounded semi-annually, what is the total amount of money needed to pay it bac
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

$7153.03

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total amount after 3 years, we can use the formula for compound tax:

P = Po * (1+r/n)^(t*n)

where P is the final value, Po is the inicial value, r is the rate, t is the amount of time and n depends on how the tax is compounded (in this case, it is semi-annually, so n = 2)

For our problem, we have that Po = 5000, r = 12.3% = 0.123, t = 3 years and n = 2, then we can calculate P:

P = 5000 * (1 + 0.123/2)^(3*2)

P = 5000 * (1 + 0.0615)^6

P = $7153.029

Rounding to the nearest cent, we have P = $7153.03

How many cubic yards in 4" x 2500sq ft?
hjlf
4" x 2500 ft², namely 4 ft x 2500 ft², will just be 4*2500*ft*ft², or 10000 ft³.

\bf \begin{array}{ll}&#10;yd&3ft\\\\&#10;(yd)^2&(3ft)^2\\&#10;&(3^2ft^2)\\&#10;&9ft^2\\\\&#10;(yd)^3&(3ft)^3\\&#10;&(3^3ft^3)\\&#10;&27ft^3&#10;\end{array}

since there are 27 ft³ in 1 yd³, then how many yd³ are there in 10000 ft³?

10000/27, that many yd³.
