Answer:

Normally, sequences don't go behind 1, but let's see for this one.

f(-1) = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's sub for -1 in x.

f(-1) = 2(-1) + 3.

f(-1) = -2 + 3

f(-1) = 1

Solve the following equations express your answers as order pair in format a,b 2x+7y=-1 and 4x-3y=-19
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

(x , y) = ( -4 , 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 7y = -1 --------eqn 1

4x - 3y = -19 ----------eqn 2

Step 1: let's pick eqn 1, to make y the subject of the formula

2x + 7y = -1

7y = -1 - 2x

Divide both sides by 7, to make y the subject of the formula

7y/7 = (-1 - 2x)/7

y = (-1 - 2x) / 7

Step 2: substitute y into the equation 2

4x - 3y = -19

4x - 3(-1 - 2x)/7 = -19

Open the bracket

-3 * -1 = +3

-3 * -2x = +6x

4x +( 3 + 6x)/7 = -19

LCM = 7

(28x + 3 + 6x)/7 = -19

(34x + 3)/7 = -19

Cross multiply

34x + 3 = 7 * -19

34x + 3 = -133

34x = -133 - 3

34x = -136

Divide both sides by 34,to get the value of x

34x/34 = -136/34

x = -4

Step 3: substitute x = -4 into eqn 1

2x + 7y = -1

2(-4) + 7y = -1

-8 + 7y = -1

7y = -1 + 8

7y = 7

Divide both sides by 7, to the value of y

7y/7 = 7/7

y = 1

(x , y) = ( -4 , 1)

Nirmala graphed the relationship between the duration (in hours) of using an oil lamp and the volume (in milliliters) of oil rem
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Nirmala can use the lamp for 31.66 hours before it runs out of oil.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph,

Take any two points, let say

(15, 25)

(25, 10)

\mathrm{Slope\:between\:two\:points}:\quad \mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(15,\:25\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(25,\:10\right)

m=\frac{10-25}{25-15}

m=-\frac{3}{2}

The equation of line in slope-intercept form

y = mx + b

Putting m=-\frac{3}{2}  and any point, let say (25, 10), to find the y-intercept 'b'

10=-\frac{3}{2}\left(25\right)+b

-\frac{3}{2}\left(25\right)+b=10

-\frac{75}{2}+b=10

\mathrm{Add\:}\frac{75}{2}\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}

-\frac{75}{2}+b+\frac{75}{2}=10+\frac{75}{2}

b=\frac{95}{2}

b=47.5

So the equation of line will be:

y = mx + b

y=-\frac{3}{2}x+47.5

In order to find how long Nirmala can use the lamp before it runs out of oil, we need to find x-intercept which can be obtained by putting y = 0, and solve for x, as duration lies on x-axis.

so

y=-\frac{3}{2}x+47.5

Putting y = 0

0=-\frac{3}{2}x+47.5

-\frac{3}{2}x+47.5=0

-\frac{3}{2}x=-47.5

\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}2

2\left(-\frac{3}{2}x\right)=2\left(-47.5\right)

-3x=-95

\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-3

\frac{-3x}{-3}=\frac{-95}{-3}

x=\frac{95}{3}

x=31.66

Therefore, Nirmala can use the lamp for 31.66 hours before it runs out of oil.
