Mathematics
1 answer:
Paul [167]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Solution point is (-1,-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the value of y in the first equation into the second equation.

  • 2x + 5(3x - 5) = - 42            Remove the brackets on the left
  • 2x + 15x - 25 = - 42            Combine like terms on the left
  • 17x - 25 = - 42                     Add 25 to both sides
  • 17x - 25 + 25 = - 42 + 25    Do the addition
  • 17x = - 17                              Divide by 17
  • 17x/17 = -17/17                      Do the division
  • x = - 1    

=======

Solve for y

  • y = 3x - 6
  • x = -1
  • y = 3(-1) - 6
  • y = -3 - 6
  • y = - 9

1. solve for x in first to just find nterms of y

x=12-y
sub that for x in other one
first divide that one by 2 to make it easier
2x-y=18
2(12-y)-y=18
24-2y-y=18
24-3y=18
minus 24 both sides
-3y=-6
divide -3
y=2

D is answer




2.
find intersection of x+y=5 and -2x+3y=6
or easiers, just test the intersections
wait, they all intersect in the same place
this is super easy
pick ANY point that is in that reigon and see if it is true

A, if we pick lets say (5,5)
that is false for x+y<5
not A

B
pick (10,0)
false for first one
not B

C
pick (0,0)
true for first
false for 2nd
not C


D. pick (-10,0)
true for first
true for 2nd


answer is D


answer is D for both questions

Ali spends 30% monthly income on food articles, 40% of the remaining on conveyance and clothes and saves 50% of the remaining. I
Romashka [77]

Ali saves Rs 2576 every month

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Given Ali's monthly salary = Rs 18400. Calculate the amount spent on food articles

Amount spent on food = 30% of 18400 = 30/100 × 18400 = Rs 5520

  • Step 2: Find the remaining amount.

Remaining amount = 18400 - 5520 = Rs 12880

  • Step 3: Find amount spend on conveyance and clothes

Amount spent on conveyance and clothes = 40% of 12880

                              = 40/100 × 12880 = Rs 5152

  • Step 4: Find his monthly savings.

Monthly savings = 50% of 5152 = 50/100 × 5152 = Rs 2576

Sauron [17]

Answer:

167/346 or 0.483

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Number of Tails (T) = 167

Number of Heads (H) = 179

Probability of tail, P(T) =?

Next, we shall determine total outcome. This can be obtained as follow:

Number of Tails (T) = 167

Number of Heads (H) = 179

Total outcome (S) =?

S = T + H

S = 167 + 179

Total outcome (S) = 346

Finally, we shall determine the probability of tails. This can be obtained as follow:

Number of Tails (T) = 167

Total outcome (S) = 346

Probability of tail, P(T) =?

P(T) = T / S

P(T) = 167 / 346

P(T) = 0.483

Thus, the probability of tails is 167/346 or 0.483

Does this Graph represent a function? Why or why not?
koban [17]

Answer: Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, imagine you have a vertical line. You can use a ruler or something straight. Move the ruler across the screen. Does the ruler intersect 2 points at once? If so, then it is not a function. If it only intersects one point, then it is a function.

Always remember: a function cannot have two x's with different y-values.

Hope that helped!
