Answer:

x=435 ,y=145

Step-by-step explanation:

You substitute x for 3y in this equation and get

3y+y=580

from here you simplify

4y=580

and divide 580 by 4 to get what y is

y=580/4

y=145

now since x=3y you mutiply y by 3

x=3(y)

x=3(145)

x=435

Answer:

x = 435

y = 145

Step-by-step explanation:

The key to this problem is that x = 3y. So put that into

x + y = 580                     Substitute 3y for x

3y + y = 580                   Combine like terms

4y = 580                         Divide by 4

4y / 4 = 580 / 4              Do the division

y = 145

x + y = 580                     Substitute the value for y

x + 145 = 580                 Subtract  145 from both sides

x = 580 - 145                  Combine

x = 435

A car's position is given by s(t) = {3 – 5t? + 7t hundreds of meters with t in minutes.
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

A) (1 s, 2.3 s)

B) (-4 m/s², 3.8 m/s²)

Step-by-step explanation:

The car's position which is the distance is given by the equation;

s(t) = t³ - 5t² + 7t

A) Velocity is the first derivative of the distance. Thus;

v(t) = ds/dt = 3t² - 10t + 7

At v = 0, we have;

3t² - 10t + 7 = 0

Using quadratic formula, we have;

t = 1 and t = 2.3

Thus, time at velocity of 0 is t = (1 s, 2.3 s)

B) acceleration is the derivative of the velocity. Thus;

a(t) = dV/dt = 6t - 10

At velocity of 0, we got t = 1 and t = 2.3

Thus;

a(1) = 6(1) - 10 = -4 m/s²

a(2.3) = 6(2.3) - 10 = 3.8 m/s

Thus, a(t) at v = 0 gives; (-4 m/s², 3.8 m/s²)

To solve the system of linear equations 3 x minus 2 y = 4 and 9 x minus 6 y = 12 by using the linear combination method, Henry d
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

"because the graphs of the two equations overlap each other"

Step-by-step explanation:

If he graphs both equations on the graphing calculator and it shows only one line this can mean only one thing:

<em>Both linear equations are the same</em>

An example of this is

x+y=2

2x+2x=4

If you simplify the second equation by dividing everything by 2 you get the same equation as the first one

This means the answer would be "because the graphs of the two equations overlap each other"
