Answer:

A: y < -2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to figure out which part of the graph to be looking at, you will look at the shaded region as the solution area.

So, the solution area is to the left of the line. Said line is a dotted line which means that the points on the line can not be a solution.

If the points on the line can not be a solution then it eliminates answer choices C and D because y can not equal the other side of the inequality.

Now, we will bring the shaded region back into focus to find out if y is greater than or less than the other side. The shaded area is "below" the line so it is less than -2x - 1.

To ensure this is correct, plug two points into the inequality we just chose, one from the shaded region and one not, just to make sure the answer is correct.

I picked (-3,4) to test. So plug them into the inequality to get:

4 < -2 (-3) - 1

So 4 < 6 - 1 which is correct.

Then from the other side of the line I picked (5,2)

2 < -2 (5) - 1

2 < -10 - 1

2 < -11 is not true so the inequality that we found was correct.

What is the surface area for this design?

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Surface Area = 157 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area is the area of each side added together.

Front = Trapezoid = b1 + b2 * h 5 + 9 * 5 = 27.5

2 2

Back = Trapezoid = b1 + b2 * h 5 + 9 * 5 = 27.5 27.5

2 2 27.5

Right = Rectangle = l * w 6.4 * 5 = 32 32

Left = Rectangle = l * w 5 * 5 = 25 25

Bottom = Rectangle = l * w 9 * 5 = 45 45

Top = Rectangle = l * w 5 * 5 = 25 25

157 in^2

7) Solve the following system of equations below algebraically using substitution.

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

x = 3.25

y =4.75

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to Solve the following system of equations below algebraically using substitution method we say that;

let;

8x - 4y = 7 ..................... equation 1

x + y = 8.......................... equation 2

from equation2

x + y = 8.......................... equation 2

x = 8 - y.............................. equation 3

substitute for x in equation 1

8x - 4y = 7 ..................... equation 1

8(8-y) - 4y = 7

64-8y-4y=7

64-12y=7

collect the like terms

64-7 = 12y

57= 12y

divide both sides by the coefficient of y which is 12

57/12 = 12y/12

4.75 = y

y =4.75

put y = 4.75 in equation 3

x = 8 - y.............................. equation 3

x = 8 -4.75

x = 3.25

to check if your answer is correct, put the value of x and y in either equation 1 or 2

from equation 2

x + y = 8.......................... equation 2

3.25 + 4.75 =8

8=8.................... proved

How do I solve for x

Alchen [17]

Greetings!

To find the length of any side of a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean Thereom. It states that the squares of two sides are equal to the square of the hypotenuse:
$a^2+b^2=c^2$

Input the information from the diagram into the formula:
$(x)^2+(x+7)^2=(13)^2$

Expand each term:
$(x)^2+(x+7)^2=(13)^2$

$x^2+((x+7)(x+7))=169$

$x^2+(x(x+7)+7(x+7))=169$

$x^2+x^2+7x+7x+49=169$

Combine like terms:
$2x^2+14x+49=169$

Add -169 to both sides:
$(2x^2+14x+49)+(-169)=(169)+(-169)$

$2x^2+14x-120=0$

Factor out the Common Term (2):
$2(x^2+7x-60)=0$

Factor the Complex Trinomial:
$2(x^2-5x+12x-60)=0$

$2(x(x-5)+12(x-5))=0$

$2(x-5)(x+12)=0$

Set Factors to equal 0:
$x-5=0$

$x=5$

or

$x+12=0$

$x=-12$

However, since we are solving for the side length, the only possible answer is 5 (a shape can't have a side with a negative length.)

The Solution Is:
$\boxed{x=5}$

I hope this helped!
