Answer:

(2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

first take x-y=0 and multiply it by -5 you will then get this

-5x+5y=0

5x-2y=6

add those together

3y=6

divide by 3

y=2

now plug 2 in for y

x-2=0

add 2 to both sides

x=2

The triangle described is of the form SSA. Determine if there is no triangle possible, one triangle possible, or two triangles p

kvv77 [185]

Answer: The way to work this problem is to sketch the SSA-described triangle.

Horizontally, mark a ray stemming from point C, going to the right.

From point C, at an angle of elevation of 20 degrees, draw a segment a = 6.3, ending at point B.

Now, from point B, draw a segment perpendicular to the horizontal ray and label it h, for altitude.

Calculate h = 6.3 sin 20o = 2.1547.

Now imagine that, dangling from point B, you have a segment of length c = 9.3; in fact, put a compass with steel point at B and radius 9.3, and draw a big arc. you'll see that it can intersect the horizontal ray only once; in its swing toward point C, due to c > a, there will be no second intersection of the ray (the arc 'overshoots' the ray).

Thus you see that only one solution exists, and the Law of Sines can be used to solve the triangle:

sin 20 / 9.3 = sin A / 6.3 and this leads to A = 13.4 degrees...and B = 180 - 20 - 13.4 = 146o.

I'll let you solve for b (side AC).

Herman and Jackie are saving money to pay for college. Herman currently has $15,000 and is working hard to save $1000 per month.

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Part 1) $10\ months$

Part 2) $\$25,000$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

y ----> the total amount of savings

x ----> the number of months

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope or unit rate

b is the y-intercept or initial value

In this problem we have

Herman

The slope is equal to $m=\$1,000\ per\ month$

The y-intercept is $b=\$15,000$

substitute

$y=1,000x+15,000$ ----> equation A

Jackie

The slope is equal to $m=\$1,300\ per\ month$

The y-intercept is $b=\$12,000$

substitute

$y=1,300x+12,000$ ----> equation B

Part 1) In how many months will they have the same amount of savings?

equate equation A and equation B

$1,300x+12,000=1,000x+15,000$

solve for x

$1,300x-1,000x=15,000-12,000$

$300x=3,000$

$x=10\ months$

Part 2) How much will each of them have saved?

substitute the value of x=10 months in any of the equations

equation A

$y=1,000(10)+15,000=\$25,000$

equation B

$y=1,300(10)+12,000=\$25,000$

Solve one step equation 5x = -15

8090 [49]

Answer:

x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a one step solution all you do is divide 5 into -15

-15/5 = -3

so -3 = x

Use the factors of the function and the y-intercept to find the standard form of the equation representing Jared’s function. Typ

Georgia [21]

The y-intercept of a function is the point where the graph crosses the $\mathbf{y = x^3 + 2x^2 - 193x - 270 }$

The factors of the Jared's graph are: (x - 10), (x + 3) and (x + 9)
The y-intercept is -13.5
The standard equation of the function is: $\mathbf{y = x^3 + 2x^2 - 193x - 270 }$

(a) The factors

First, we write out the points where the function cross the x-axis.

The points are:

$\mathbf{x = 10}$
