5х + y = 16 х+ 6у = 38

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ainat [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

(2,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve by substitution. Solve the second equation for x:

x+6y=38\\\\x+6y-6y=38-6y\\\\x=38-6y

Insert the value of x into the first equation:

5(38-6y)+y=16

Solve for y. Simplify multiplication using the distributive property:

5(38)+5(-6y)+y=16\\\\190-30y+y=16\\\\190-29y=16

Subtract 190 from both sides:

190-190-29y=16-190\\\\-29y=-174

Isolate the variable to find its value. Divide both sides by -29:

\frac{-29y}{-29}=\frac{-174}{-29}  \\\\y=6

Now take the value of y and insert back into either equation to solve for x:

5x+6=16

Subtract 6 from both sides:

5x+6-6=16-6\\\\5x=10

Divide both sides by 5:

\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{10}{5}\\\\  x=2

Therefore, the solution to the system is (2,6).

:Done

Can someone smart please help me?
ollegr [7]
Hello! 

For a:

How I would do this, is I would first say if all 46 animals (heads) were chickens, how many legs would there be? Each chicken has 2 legs, so 46 * 2 = 92. The total amount of legs is 96 as stated in the question, so if all of the animals were chickens, the farmer would be 4 legs short.

Now to add rabbits into the equation. Rabbits have 4 legs, and chickens have 2. You want to find the difference between the two, because as you add rabbits to the animals the farmer has, then you have to take away chickens at the same time. 4-2 = 2, so for each rabbit you replace, you add 2 legs. 

Since the farmer is 4 legs short with all chickens, then you just divide that 4 by the 2 legs you add by replacing a chicken with a rabbit.

4 / 2 = 2 rabbits

So that means there are 2 rabbits. Since there are 46 heads in total, if 2 are rabbits, that means there are 44 chickens.

So there are 44 chickens and 2 rabbits.

b)

You can follow the same steps: I'm assuming all are child tickets for now:

3.05 * 100 = $305

And now you find how much money short you are.

498.6 - 305 = 193.6

Next, you find the difference in the ticket costs.

5.25 - 3.05 = 2.20

And you divide to find the number of adult tickets.

193.6 / 2.2 = 88

Since 100 tickets were sold, and 88 adult tickets were sold, that means 12 child tickets were sold.

Graph the function f(x) = - squared x + 2
MariettaO [177]

One of the ways to graph this is to use plug in a few x-values and get an idea of the shape. Since the x values keep getting squared, there is an exponential increase on either side of the y-axis. You can see this by plugging in a few values:

When

x=0,f(x)=0

x=1,f(x)=1^2=1

x=2,f(x)=2^2=4

x=3,f(x)=3^2=9

x=4,f(x)=4^2=16

The same holds true for negative x-values to the left of the y-axis since a negative value squared is positive. For example,

x=−1,f(x)=(−1)2=1*−1=1

x=2,f(x)=(−2)2=−2*−2=4

The graph of f(x)=x^2 is called a "Parabola." It looks like this:

Geomtry plzzzz help me
victus00 [196]

Step-by-step explanation:

it is an isoceles triangle (equally long legs).

there is a right angle at W, so YW is the height of the isoceles triangle XYZ.

that means W splits XZ in half.

therefore,

ZW = XZ/2 = 38/2 = 19
