Answer:

x = 9, y = 2 is the solution of the given system.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given set of equation is :

2 x - 3 y = 12

x = 4 y + 1

Now, from equation (2) we see that x = 4 y + 1.

Substitute the value of y from (2) in the first equation. we get:

2 x - 3 y = 12 ⇒ 2 (4 y + 1) - 3 y = 12

or, 8 y + 2 - 3 y = 12

or, 5 y = 12- 2 = 10

or, y = 10/ 5 = 2

or, y = 2

Now, x = 4 y + 1 ⇒ x = 4(2) + 1 = 8 + 1 = 9, or x = 9

Hence, x = 9, y = 2 is the solution of the given system.

in a bag of keys there are 15 silver keys six black keys 11 copper keys and two painted keys of various colors. one key is drawn

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

The best thing to do here is to put each of these into fractions, with the total (31) as the denominator.

14/31= silver

6/31= black

8/31= copper

3/31= various colours.

As you're looking for the keys that are silver or copper, you've got to add the two denominators together, which gives you 14+8= 22.

This cannot be simplified further, therefore, the probability of choosing either a silver or copper key is 22/31.

Hope this answer helps you :)

The owner of a used car lot wants to buy many cars at an auction as he can while not spending more than $20000. If he expects th

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total maximum amount that the owner wishes to spend = $20000

Average price of each car = $4000

To find:

How many cars that the owner can expect to buy?

Solution:

Total number of cars that the owner can expect to buy can be found by dividing the total money available with the owner with the average price of each car.

i.e.

$\text{Number of cars expected to be bought} = \dfrac{\text{Total money available with the owner}}{\text{Average Price of car}}$

We have the following values as given in the question statement:

Total money available = $20000

Average price of car = $4000

Therefore, the answer is:

$\text{Number of cars expected to be bought} = \dfrac{20000}{4000} = \bold{5}$

The owner can expect to buy 5 number of cars.

Find the critical numbers of the function. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list. If an answer does not exist, enter DNE

Furkat [3]

Answer:

x = -6 and x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In math, the critical points of a function are the points where the derivative equals zero.

So, first we will find the derivative of the function. The derivative is:

$f'(x)=3x^2 +6x-72$

Now, we are going to make the derivative equal zero and find the answers of the equation.

$3x^2 +6x-72=0\\3(x^2 +2x-24)=0\\3(x+6)(x-4)=0\\$

So we have that the critical points are the answers to this equation:

$x+6= 0 \\x= - 6$

and

$x-4=0\\x=4$

Thus, the critical points are x=-6 and x=4
