An equation is shown below:

Part 1. How many solutions will the following system of linear equations have?

nlexa [21]

–2x + 4y = –7 . . . . . (1)
y = -1/2x + 5 . . . . . . (2)
Putting (2) into (1), we have:
-2x + 4(-1/2x + 5) = -7
-2x - 2x + 5 = -7
-4x = -7 - 5 = -12
x = -12/-4 = 3
y = -1/2(3) + 5 = -3/2 + 5 = 7/2
Hence, the system has one solution.

VGravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 50 ft3/min. It forms a pile in the shape of a right circular cone whos

kupik [55]

Answer:

0.325 ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve we must follow the following steps:

First, the volume of a cone is given by the equation:

Vc = (1/3) * Pi * (r ^ 2) * h

where r is the radius and h is the height.

they tell us that the height is equal to twice the radius, therefore

h = 2r; r = h / 2

replacing r in the volume of the cone:

Vc = (1/3) * Pi * ((h / 2) ^ 2) * h

solving we have:

Vc = (1/3) * Pi * (1/4) * (h ^ 2) * h

Vc = (1/12) * Pi * h ^ 3

They give us the change in volume with respect to time, that is, dV / dt = 50

It can also be expressed in the following way:

dV / dt = (dV / dh) * (dh / dt)

We know V, so we can derive with respect to h, we are like this:

dV / dh = 3 * (1/12) * Pi * h ^ 2

dV / dh = (1/4) * Pi * h ^ 2

we know that h is equal to 14, therefore:

dV / dh = (1/4) * Pi * 14 ^ 2

dV / dh = (1/4) * 3.14 * 196 = 153.86

Now if we replace

dV / dt = (dV / dh) * (dh / dt)

50 = 153.86 * (dh / dt)

(dh / dt) = 50/158.36

(dh / dt) = 0.3249

This means that the change in height with respect to time is 0.325 feet per minutes.

A company that makes cartons finds that the probability of producing a carton with a puncture is 0.04, the probability that a ca

Over [174]

Answer:

a) C. No, a carton can have a puncture and a smashed corner.

b) The probability that a carton has a puncture or a smashed corner is P(X ∪ Y) = 0.104.

Step-by-step explanation:

To be mutually exclusive, the probability of the two events happening at the same time should be 0. But the probability that a carton has a puncture and has a smashed corner is 0.004 and not 0.

Then, we can conclude the events "selecting a carton with a puncture" and "selecting a carton with a smashed corner" are not mutually exclusive.

The answer is "C. No, a carton can have a puncture and a smashed corner."

We can calculate the probability that the carton has a puncture <em>or </em>has a smashed comer simply by adding the probability of each event:

$P(X\cup Y)=P(X)+P(Y)=0.1+0.04=0.104$

P(X ∪ Y): probability that a carton has a puncture or a smashed corner.
