Which ordered pair is a solution of the equation
alekssr [168]

Answer:

OPTION D: NEITHER

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is: 7x - 2y = - 5

To find a solution to this, we substitute the options and compare LHS and RHS.

OPTION A: (1, 5)

LHS = 7(1) - 2(5) = 7 - 10 = -3

RHS = - 5

LHS $ \ne $ RHS.

So, this option is eliminated.

OPTION B: (-1, 1)

LHS = 7(-1) - 2(1) = -7 - 2 = - 9

RHS = - 5

Again, LHS $ \ne $ RHS.

So, this Option is eliminated as well.

OPTION C: It says both A and B. Clearly, this is eliminated as well.

Therefore, the answer is: OPTION D: NEITHER.

NOTE: This is a two variable equation. So, we need a minimum of two equations to determine the solution. Since, only one equation is given here, we use the help of options.

The coordinates of the vertices of a triangle are A(-1, 2), B(3, 1), and C(-3, -2). The coordinates of the vertices of its image
Levart [38]

Answer:

ΔABC was translated right 4 units and down 4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

A' - A = (3, -2) -(-1, 2) = (3+1, -2-2) = (4, -4)

So, the transformation is (x, y) ⇒ (x +4, y -4).

Adding these values to a coordinate pair causes it to be translated to the right 4 units (x is increased by 4) and down 4 units (y is decreased by 4).

How do I solve this?
Sonbull [250]

The question is somewhat poorly posed because the equation doesn't involve <em>θ</em> at all. I assume the author meant to use <em>x</em>.

sec(<em>x</em>) = csc(<em>x</em>)

By definition of secant and cosecant,

1/cos(<em>x</em>) = 1/sin(<em>x</em>)

Multiply both sides by sin(<em>x</em>) :

sin(<em>x</em>)/cos(<em>x</em>) = sin(<em>x</em>)/sin(<em>x</em>)

As long as sin(<em>x</em>) ≠ 0, this reduces to

sin(<em>x</em>)/cos(<em>x</em>) = 1

By definition of tangent,

tan(<em>x</em>) = 1

Solve for <em>x</em> :

<em>x</em> = arctan(1) + <em>nπ</em>

<em>x</em> = <em>π</em>/4 + <em>nπ</em>

(where <em>n</em> is any integer)

In the interval 0 ≤ <em>x</em> ≤ 2<em>π</em>, you get 2 solutions when <em>n</em> = 0 and <em>n</em> = 1 of

<em>x</em> = <em>π</em>/4   <u>or</u>   <em>x</em> = 5<em>π</em>/4

A car rental agency has 150 cars. The owner finds that at a price of $48 per day, he can rent all the cars. For each $2 increase
hram777 [196]
Given that for each <span>$2 increase in price, the demand is less and 4 fewer cars are rented.

Let x be the number of $2 increases in price, then the revenue from renting cars is given by
(48 + 2x) \times (150 - 4x)=7,200+108x-8x^2.

Also, given that f</span><span>or each car that is rented, there are routine maintenance costs of $5 per day, then the total cost of renting cars is given by
5(150-4x)=750-20x

Profit is given by revenue - cost.
Thus, the profit from renting cars is given by
</span><span>(7,200+108x-8x^2)-(750-20x)=6,450+128x-8x^2

For maximum profit, the differentiation of the profit function equals zero.
i.e.
</span><span>\frac{d}{dx} (6,450+128x-8x^2)=0 \\  \\ 128-16x=0 \\  \\ x= \frac{128}{16} =8

The price of renting a car is given by 48 + 2x = 48 + 2(8) = 48 + 16 = 64.

Therefore, the </span><span>rental charge will maximize profit is $64.</span>
