Step-by-step Answer:

What is the solution to the system of equations?

y = –3x – 2 ..............(1)

5x + 2y = 15..............(2)

Substitute (1) in (2) to give

5x + 2(-3x-2) = 15

5x-6x-4 = 15

-x-4=15

solve for x:

-4-15 = x

x=-19

Now substitute x=-19 into equation (1)

y = -3x-2 = 57-2 = 55

Therefore the solution is (-19, 55)

1 (15 Points]. Prove the following statement: is divisible by 3 if only if it is a sum of three consecutive integers. be ddvisbk

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

First. Let us prove that the sum of three consecutive integers is divisible by 3.

Three consecutive integers can be written as k, k+1, k+2. Then, if we denote their sum as n:

n = k+(k+1)+(k+2) = 3k+3 = 3(k+1).

So, n can be written as 3 times another integer, thus n is divisible by 3.

Second. Let us prove that any number divisible by 3 can be written as the sum of three consecutive integers.

Assume that n is divisible by 3. The above proof suggest that we write it as

n=3(k+1)=3k+3=k + k + k +1+2 = k + (k+1) + (k+2).

As k, k+1, k+2 are three consecutive integers, we have completed our goal.

If you are driving 20 meters per second, what would be the equivalent of that in miles per hour?

melomori [17]

$\frac{20 meters}{1 second} \frac{60 seconds}{1 minute} \frac{60 minutes}{1 hour}$

the fractions are set up so that each unit cancels out until its only meters/hour

you can multiply all the numerators together to get 72000 and all the denominators to get 1

72000 meters/1 hour

72000 meters in 1 hour
