Answer: it's impossible to obtain 78

Step-by-step explanation: Since the calculator can double any number or permute its digits except 0 

starting with number 1 

1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128

Therefore, it's impossible to obtain 78 by a series of these operations

Melanie has 137 dollars in total.

Let each book cost=x

No of books=17

So total cost of 17 books=17x

After buying books Melanie left with 11 dollars

According to question the required equation will be=

17x+11=137

17x=137-11=126

x=8

Write an equation of the line containing the point (3,5) and perpendicular to the line 4x-3y=5
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write the equation of the line perpendicular to the given line, we first have to know what the slope of the given line is, and there's no way to tell by looking at it in its current form, which is standard. We need to solve that equation for y to determine the slope of that line. Solving for y:

-3y=-4x+5 and

3y = 4x - 5 (just change all the signs so our y term isn't negative anymore...yes, you're "allowed" to do that!) and

y=\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{5}{3} So we can see now that the slope of this line is 4/3. That means that the perpendicular slope is -3/4. Passing through the given point (3, 5):

y-5=-\frac{3}{4}(x-3)* and

y-5=-\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{9}{4} and

y=-\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{9}{4}+\frac{20}{4} so

y=-\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{29}{4}** and, in standard form:

4y = -3x + 29 and

3x + 4y = 29***

* : point-slope form

** : slope-intercept form

*** : standard form

X1 + X2 =-8<br>3X1 +2X2 = 18​
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

X1 = 34

X2 = -42

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the simultaneous equations

X1 + X2 =-8 .... 1 * 3

3X1 +2X2 = 18​ .... 2 * 1

______________________

3X1 + 3X2 = -24

3X1 +2X2 = 18​

Subtract

3X2 - 2X2 =-24 - 18

X2 = -42

Substitute X2 = -42 into 1

X1 + X2 = -8

X1 - 42 = -8

X1 = -8+42

X1 = 34

Hence the solution to the system of equation is (34, -42)
