Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) lets use elimination to solve this:

multiply 10x+4y=24 with 3 in order to get "4y" into "12y"

3(10x+4y=24)

30x+12y=72

now subtract both equations to eliminate 'y"

30x+12y=72

6x+12y=48

---------------------

24x=24

x=1

now substitute 1 in the above equation:

6(1)+12y=48

6+12y=48

12y=42

y=7/2

Unit 1: Scientific Notation Constructed Response Assignment

Let C, S and H be the diameters of cell, sand and hair

Diameter of a cell: $C=1 \cdot 10^{-5}m$

Diameter of a grain of sand: $S=2 \cdot10^{-4}m$

Part A:

$H=0.000025=2.5 \cdot 10^{-5}$ meters, because it takes 5 movements right of the decimal dot, until there is only one digit to its left.

Part B:

we are comparing $S=2 \cdot10^{-4} m$ to $C=1 \cdot10^{-5} m$ ,

$\frac{S}{C}= \frac{2 \cdot 10^{-4}}{1 \cdot 10^{-5}}=\frac{20 \cdot 10^{-5}}{1 \cdot 10^{-5}}=20$

thus S is 20 times larger than C

Part C

$1m=1 \cdot10^9nm$

thus,

$H=2.5 \cdot 10^{-5}m=2.5 \cdot 10^{-5} \cdot 1 \cdot 10^9nm=2.5 \cdot 10^{-5+9}=2.5\cdot10^4nm$

Part D.

$1m=1\cdot 10^9nm\\\\1nm=\displaystyle{ \frac{1m}{10^9}=1\cdot 10^{-9}m}$

thus 300 nm are written in meters as follows:

$300nm= 300\cdot 1\cdot 10^{-9}m=3\cdot 10^2 \cdot 10^{-9}m=3\cdot 10^{-7}m$

What is the slope intercept form of the linear equation 4x + 2y = 24

castortr0y [4]

The answer is: y = -2x+12

4x+2y=24=

4x-4x+2y=24-4x=

2y=24-4x

Divide each piece by 2=

2y/2=24/2-4x/2

y=12-2x

But, slope intercept form is y=mx + b so you must put the second part in reverse, making the answer to the equation be y=-2x+12
(Don't forget the - on -2)

Separate the number 41 and the two parts so that the first number is eight more than twice the second number what are the two nu

vesna_86 [32]

The two numbers are 30 and 11

Solution:

Given that we have to separate the number 41 into two parts

Let the second number be "x"

Given that first number is eight more than twice the second number

first number = eight more than twice the second number

first number = 8 + twice the "x"

first number = 8 + 2x

So we can say first number added with second number ends up in 41

first number + second number = 41

8 + 2x + x = 41

8 + 3x = 41

3x = 41 - 8

3x = 33

x = 11

first number = 8 + 2x = 8 + 2(11) = 8 + 22 = 30

Thus the two numbers are 30 and 11
