Answer:

0.375

Step-by-step explanation:

1.y=2x-1

2.y=-x+2

using substitution method

1.y=2x-1

y+1=2x

the other equation where there is an x will be replaced by a the first equation

2.y=-(y+1)+2

y=-y-1+2

y=-y+1

y+y=1

2y=1

2y/2=1/2

y=0.5

the value of y is 0.5 the value of x would be found by taking the y and replacing it with 0.5 in any of questions one and two.

1.y(0.5)=2x-1

0.5=2x-1

0.5+1=2x

1.5=2x

1.5/2=2x/2

0.75=x

the value of y is 0.5 and x is 0.75

0.5*0.75=0.375

=0.375

An appliance repairman charges $50 for service calls plus $25 per hour for labor. Write and solve an equation to determine how m

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

C = $137.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Okie dokie, so we already know he charges $50 just for a service call, plus 25 per hour, so let's say the total charge is C.

Now, let's make an equation:

C = 50 + 25(3.5)

Now, multiply 25 and 3.5 together:

C = 50 + 87.5

Now we just combine the like terms:

C = $137.5

Hope this helps :)

The width of a triangle is six more than twice the height. The area of the triangle is 88in2. Find the height and base of the tr

malfutka [58]

For this case we have that by definition, the area of a triangle is given by:

$A = \frac {b * h} {2}$

Where:

b: It is the base of the triangle

h: It is the height of the triangle

According to the statement data we have:

$b = 6 + 2h$

Substituting we have:

$88 = \frac {(6 + 2h) * h} {2}\\176 = 6h + 2h ^ 2\\2h ^ 2 + 6h-176 = 0$

We divide between 2 on both sides:

$h ^ 2 + 3h-88 = 0$

We factor by looking for two numbers that, when multiplied, are obtained -88 and when added together, +3 is obtained.

These numbers are +11 and -8.

$(h + 11) (h-8) = 0$

We have two roots:

$h = -11\\h = 8$

We choose the positive value.

Thus, the base of the triangle is: $b = 6 + 2 (8) = 22$

Answer:

The base of the triangle is 22 units.

The sample space will be: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Event A is: {Rolling 1,2 or 3}

Complement of event A will contain all those outcomes in the sample space which are not a part of event A.

So, complement of event A will be: {Rolling a 4,5 or 6}

Thus option A gives the correct answer
