3p + 2q = 14 10p + 6q = 44 What is p and what is q

Mathematics
1 answer:
Airida [17]3 years ago

Answer:

p = 2 ; q = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given tbe equation :

3p + 2q = 14 - - - (1)

10p + 6q = 44 - - -(2)

What is p and what is q

This is a simultaneous equation ; using elimination method :

Multiply (1) by 6 and (2) by 2

18p + 12q = 84 - - - - (3)

20p + 12q = 88 - - - (4)

Subtract (3) and (4)

-2p = - 4

p = 4/2

p = 2

Put p = 2 in (1)

3p + 2q = 14

3(2) + 2q = 14

6 + 2q = 14

2q = 14 - 6

2q = 8

q = 8/2

q = 4

p = 2 ; q = 4

HELP ME ASAP!!!!!!!!
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 30 : 100 = x : 299

x = (30 x 299)/100

x = 89,70 $

2) 299 - 89,70 = 209,30 $

3)  5 : 100 = x : 209,30

x = 10,465 $

209,30 + 10,465 = 219,77 $

Use the distance formula to determine whether ABCD below is a parallelogram. A(-3,2) B(-3,3) C (5,-3) D (-1.-5)
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

ABCD is not a parallelogram

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula to determine whether ABCD below is a parallelogram. A(-3,2) B(-3,3) C (5,-3) D (-1.-5)

We have to find the length of the sides of the parallelogram using the formula below

= √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)² when given vertices (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

For side AB

A(-3,2) B(-3,3)

= √(-3 -(-3))² + (3 -2)²

= √0² + 1²

= √1

= 1 unit

For side BC

B(-3,3) C (5,-3)

= √(5 -(-3))² + (-3 -3)²

= √8² + -6²

= √64 + 36

= √100

= 10 units

For side CD

C (5,-3) D (-1.-5)

= √(-1 - 5)² + (-5 - (-3))²

= √-6² + -2²

= √36 + 4

= √40 units

For sides AD

A(-3,2) D (-1.-5)

= √(-1 - (-3))² + (-5 -2)²

= √(2² + -7²)

= √(4 + 49)

= √53 units

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with it's opposite sides equal

From the above calculation

Side AB ≠ CD

BC ≠ AD

Therefore, ABCD is not a parallelogram
