Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations is expressed as

x + y = 8 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1

x² + y² = 34 - - - - - - - - - - - -2

From equation 1, we would make x to stand alone by subtracting y from the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation. It becomes

x + y - y = 8 - y

x = 8 - y

Substituting x = 8 - y into equation 2, it becomes

(8 - y)² + y² = 34

(8 - y)(8 - y) + y² = 34

64 - 8y - 8y + y² + y² = 34

2y² - 16y + 64 - 34 = 0

2y²- 16y + 30 = 0

Dividing through by 2, it becomes

y² - 8y + 15 = 0

y² - 5y - 3y + 15 = 0

y(y - 5) - 3(y - 5) = 0

y - 5 = 0 or y - 3 = 0

y = 5 or y = 3

Recall, x = 8 - y

x = 8 - 5. or x = 8 - 3

x = 3 or x = 5

Finley and Cooper are wanting to go to SkyZone. Finley pays $53.75 for 5 hours. How much will Cooper pay for 3 hours?
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

<em>10.75 x 3 = $32.25</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

first, we need to figure out how much the cost is for one hour:

53.75/5 = 10.75

therefore, the cost at skyzone for 1 hour is $10.75 , BUT, we still need to figure out the time for 3 hours.

so, 10.75 x 3 = $32.25

Secants L J and L M intersect and form an angle at point L. Solve for x.
german

Answer:

x = 14  

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume your diagram is like the one below.

The intersecting secant angles theorem states, "When two secants intersect outside a circle, the measure of the angle formed is one-half the difference between the far and the near arcs."

For your diagram, that means

\begin{array}{rcl}m\angle L &=&\dfrac{1}{2} \left(m \widehat {JM} - m\widehat {PQ}\right)\\\\(3x + 13)^{\circ}& = &\dfrac{1}{2} \left[(8x + 48)^{\circ} - (5x - 20)^{\circ}\right]\\\\3x + 13& = &\dfrac{1}{2}(8x + 48 - 5x + 20)\\\\3x + 13& = &\dfrac{1}{2}(3x + 68)\\\\6x + 26 & = & 3x + 68\\6x & = & 3x + 42\\3x & = & 42\\x & = & \mathbf{14}\\\end{array}

Check:

\begin{array}{rcl}(3\times14 + 13) & = &\dfrac{1}{2} \left[(8\times14 + 48)^{\circ} - (5\times14 - 20)^{\circ}\right]\\\\42 + 13& = &\dfrac{1}{2}(112 + 48 - 70 + 20)\\\\55& = &\dfrac{1}{2}(110)\\\\55 & = & 55\\\end{array}

It checks.

3x+2y=6 and y=1/3x-11 perpendicular or parallel
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer: To determine if two lines are parallel or perpendicular, you have to look at the slopes. For the line y=kx+b, k is the slope.

For two lines  y=k1x+b1 and y=k2X+b2 ,When K1=K2, two lines are parallel; when K1=-1/k2, two lines are perpendicular. It doesn't matter whatever b1, b2 are. Hence to save time, you only need to calculate  k1 and k2.

To calculate the slope k of any line, you have to change the equation to y=kx+b

For -y=3x-2, k=3/(-1)=-3 (you divide -1 on each side of =, but you don't need to calculate -2/(-1))

For -6X+2y=6, K=6/2=3 (you first move the -6x to right side, it becomes 6x, then divide by 2)

Now you can get the answer: The two lines neither parallel nor perpendicular.
