Answer:

x = 8, y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 12y = 60

x + 2y = 14

3x - 12y = 60

3x + 6y = 42 (multiply by 3 so the x is the same as the top equation)

6y = 18 (subtract the equations)

y = 18 / 6

= 3

To find x, substitute y into the 2nd equation since it is the simplest so:

x + 2(3) = 14

x + 6 = 14

x = 14 - 6

= 8

In a small town, the use of coal (W in tons/per
zimovet [89]

Answer:

i)W = 2500 / T

ii)  W = 500 Tons

iii) grad W(10°) = - 25î

iv) The formulation is not practical

Step-by-step explanation:

i)  Write an equation describing the use of coal

As use of coal is inversely proportional to the average monthly temperature

if  W is use of coal in tons/per month then

W(t)  =   k / T              where k is a constant of proportionality and T is the average temperature in degrees. We have to determine k from given conditions

k  =  ??   we know that when   T  =  25°    W = 100 tons  the by subtitution

W = k/T           100  =  k /25       k  =  2500 Tons*degree

Then final equation is:

W = 2500 / T

ii) Find the amount of coal when T = 5 degrees

W = 2500 / 5

W = 500 Tons

iii)

The inverse proportionality implies that W will decrease as T increase.

The vector gradient of W function is:

grad W  = DW(t)/dt î  

grad W  = - 2500/T² î

Wich agrees with the fact that W is decreasing.

And when T = 100°

grad W(10°) =  - 2500/ 100 î      ⇒  grad W(10°) = - 25î

iv) When T =  0  The quantity of coal tends to infinite and the previous formulation is not practical

Can someone help me with problem please? It’s special right triangle: decimal answers (Round to the nearest tenth)
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

h= 4.6, c=7.1

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to know in a 30 60 90 triangle the sides ratios are x, 2x and x√3, and for 45 90 45 it is x, x and x√2

so <em>h</em> is 8/√3 and you rationalize the bottom so it becomes 8√3/3. when you solve this and round to nearest hundred it becomes 4.6. for the second one, it is 5√2 and when you solve this and round, it becomes 7.1

What is the simplified form of the following expression? 2 Sqrt 18+3 Sqrt 2 + Sqrt 162
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

18√2

Step-by-step explanation:

2√18 + 3√2 + √162

= 2√(9 * 2) + 3√2 + √(81 * 2)

= (2 * 3)√2 + 3√2 + 9√2

= 6√2 + 3√2 + 9√2

= (6 + 3 + 9)√2

= 18√2
