30 because the original ratio would be 16 to 14 but that reduces to 8 to 7 and then you just double the 7 to get 14  and then you add 16 and 14 together to get the total number of horses and elephants.

If x/y + y/x = -1 , find the value of x^3 - y^3
marin [14]

Answer:

  0

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying the first equation by xy, we have ...

  x^2 +y^2 = -xy

Factoring the expression of interest, we have ...

  x^3 -y^3 = (x -y)(x^2 +xy +y^2)

Substituting for xy using the first expression we found, this is ...

  x^3 -y^3 = (x -y)(x^2 -(x^2 +y^2) +y^2) = (x -y)(0) = 0

The value of x^3 -y^3 is 0.

x =1

1/6x = 8/3 ( Divide both sides by <em>1</em><em>/</em><em>6</em><em> </em>)

___ ___

1/6 1/6

(By cross-multiplying the numerators and denominators)

=> 1×6 8×6

___ x = ___

6×1 3×1

Cancelling out , we have

x = 8×2

____ = 8×2 = 16

1 × 1

<em>The</em><em> </em><em>final</em><em> </em><em>answer</em><em> </em><em>becomes</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>6</em>

<em>Hope</em><em> </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>helps</em><em>.</em>

Neko [114]

Answer:

59

Step-by-step explanation:

5: 30 pm is 2.5 hours after 3 : 00 pm

Substitute x = 2.5 into the equation

y = - 6.2(2.5)² + 41.5(2.5) - 5.6

  = - 38.75 + 103.75 - 5.6

  = 59.4

The average number of cars is 59
