Solve the system of linear equations by substitution 2x-y=6 x=y-1

1 answer:

6 0

substitute x for y-1
2(y-1)-y=6 distribute
2y-2-y=6 subtract y in 2y
y-2=6 add 2 to get y by itself
y=8

Put y back into equation x=y-1
x=8-1
X=7

A country's population in 1995 was 164 million. in 2001 it was 169 million. estimate the population in 2015 using the exponentia

Vaselesa [24]

1995. 164 million
2001. 169 million
t = 2001 - 1995 = 6
169 = $164 * p^{6}$
$p^{6} = \frac{169}{164}= 1.0304878 \\ p = \sqrt[6]{1.0304878}$
p = 1.00502
t 1 = 2015 - 2001 = 14
f ( t1 ) = $169 * 1.00502^{14}$
f (t1) = 169 * 1.0762 = 181.27
Answer: a country´s population in 2015 will be 181 million.

10. A 266-hp output is required for an engine. If there is a 5% loss of power, what amount of input

marta [7]

Answer:

Amount of input horsepower needed is 279.3 hp.

Step-by-step explanation:

if there is a loss of power of 5% the base horsepower will need to be increased by same percentage so that same amount of power can be delivered.

Now to calculate 5% of 266 hp, we can write

266 × $\frac{5}{100}$ = 13.3 hp

Now to deliver same amount of power we will have to add 5% of 266 hp to its actual power.

So real base power which is needed to deliver 266hp output even at a loss of 5% will be = (266+13.3) hp = 279.3 hp
