If y-3x=9, 7x+y=25, what is the value of x and y?

lianna [129]

$\bold{\rm{Given}}\text{ : If y - 3x = 9, 7x + y = 25, what is the value of x and y}?$

$\bold{\rm{Solution}} \text{: We'll solve this by substitution method}$

$\dashrightarrow y - 3x = 9 \\ \\ \dashrightarrow \boxed{y = 9 + 3x } \qquad .. \sf eq(1)$

$\text{we got the value of y now getting the value of x}$

$\looparrowright 7x + y = 25 \\ \\ \looparrowright 7x = 25 - y \\ \\ \looparrowright \boxed{x = \frac{25 - y}{7}} \qquad .. \sf eq(2)$

$\text{Now, putting y = 9 + 3x in eq(2)}$

$\hookrightarrow x = \frac{25 - y}{7} \\ \\ \hookrightarrow x = \frac{25 - 9 + 3x}{7} \\ \\ \hookrightarrow 7x = 25 - 9 + 3x \\ \\ \hookrightarrow 7x - 3x = 16 \\ \\ \hookrightarrow 4x = 16 \\ \\ \hookrightarrow x = \frac{16}{4} \\ \\ \star \quad \boxed{ \green{ \frak{ x = 4}}}$

$\text{Now we know the value of x, for getting y we need to put x in eq(1)}$

$: \implies y = 9 + 3x \\ \\ : \implies y = 9 + 3(4) \\ \\ : \implies y = 9 + 12 \\ \\ \star \quad \boxed{\frak{ \green{y = 21}}}$

$\text{Hence, values of x and y are} \: \frak{ \green{4}} \: \text{and} \: \frak{ \green{21}} \: \text{respectively}.$

One of your employees is bidding on a carpet installation job. They estimate that it will take 3 hours to install 12 square yard

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

No, the bid is not correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of your employees is bidding on a carpet installation job.

They estimate that it will take 3 hours to install 12 square yards of carpeting.

we know that 1 square yard= 9 square foot.

12 square yard= 12×9 square foot=108 square foot

i.e. it takes 3 hours to carpet 108 square foot.

Hence time taken to carpet 1 square foot= $\dfrac{3}{108}$ hour

Now the dimension of room is:

11' 6"× 12' 9" i.e. we convert both the units to foot as:

1 foot= 12 inch

11'6"=11+(6/12)=11.5 foot.

and 12'9"=12+(9/12)=12.75 foot.

Hence, dimension of room=11.5 foot×12.75 foot

Hence area of room=11.5×12.75=146.625 square foot.

Time to carpet 146.625 square foot=

$\dfrac{3}{108}\times 146.625$ hour

=4.0729 hour

But it is given that it takes 12.3 hours to install the carpet.

Hence, the calculations were wrong.

What is the sum of the infinite geometric series?

nikitadnepr [17]

An infinite geometric series is the sum of an infinite geometric sequence . This series would have no last term. The general form of the infinite geometric series is a1+a1r+a1r2+a1r3+... , where a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio. We can find the sum of all finite geometric series.

On what I’ve researched :)

for a singing contest in which 42,000 votes were cast, the winner received 3/5 of the votes. How many votes did the winner not r

Xelga [282]

There are two ways:

1. (42,000 * 3)/5 =

126000/5 =

25200

2. 42000/5 =

8400*3 =

25200

Now subtract 25200 from original

42000 - 25200 = 16800

16800 votes were not for the winner
