Which ordered pair represents the solution to the system of equations? {−5x+7y=−196x−2y=10

1 answer:

8 0

Answer:
x = 1
y = -2

Explanation:
First, solve for x by subtracting 7y from both sides of the first equation and then divide both sides by -5.

-5x + 7y = -19
-5x + 7y - 7y = -19 - 7y
-5x = -19 - 7y
-5x/ -5 = -19 - 7y/ -5
x = -19 - 7y/ -5

Next, substitute the value of x into the second equation and solve.

6 - (-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10
- 6(-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10

Then, solve for y

- 6(-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10
-6(-19 - 7y) - 10y = 50
114 + 42y - 10y = 50
144 + 32y = 50
32y = 50 - 144
32y = -64
32y/ 32 = -64/ 32
y = -2

Finally, substitute the value of y into the x value we found earlier and solve

x = - 19 - 7y/ 5
x = - 19 - 7 • -2/ 5
x = 1

Answer:

P in terms of V is:

P = 432/V

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that y varies inversely as x, we get the equation

y ∝ 1/x

y = k/x

k = yx

where k is called the constant of proportionality.

In our case,

P is inversely proportional to V

Given

P = 18

V = 24

P = k/V

k = PV

substituting P = 18 and V = 24 to determine k

k = 18 × 24

k = 432

now substituting k = 432 in P = k/V

P = 432/V

Therefore, P in terms of V is:

P = 432/V

Answer:

Perimeter of rectangle before folded = 56 in

Total area after folding = 156 sq in

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangle before folded: l = 16 and w = 12

P = 2(16) + 2(12) = 32 + 24 = 56 in.

Figure after folding: Area of trapezoid + area of rectangle

Area of trapezoid = h( $b_{1} + b_{2}$ )/2 = 6(4 + 16)/2 = 60

Area of rectangle = lw = 16(6) = 96

Total area after folding = 60 + 96 = 156 sq in.

Note: You could also find the area after folding by substracting the areas of the two triangles in the corners from the area of the original rectangle. Your choice. OK?

A store clerk has 45 shirts to pack in boxes each box holds 6 shirts what is the fewest boxes the clerk will need to pack all th

Kobotan [32]

The store clerk will need to pack 8 boxes. This is because you have to divide 45 by 6 and you 7.5, but you can not split the box in half, so you need to round up since you have to pack all the shirts and you get 8.
