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

The next model of a sports car will cost 12.2% less than the current model. The current model costs $34,000 . How much will the

Kryger [21]

Answer:

Price decrease in dollars = $4,148
Price of next model = $29,852

Step-by-step explanation:

The next car will be 12.2% cheaper. This amount in dollars is:

= Percentage decrease * Current model price

= 12.2% * 34,000

= $4,148

The price of the next model will therefore be:

= 34,000 - 4,148

= $29,852

For what values of m does the graph of y = 3x2 + 7x + m have two x-intercepts

Irina18 [472]

we are given

$y=3x^2+7x+m$

To find x-intercept means we have to find zeros

and for finding zeros , we will use quadratic formula

and we have it has two x-intercepts

so, it's discriminant must be greater than 0

so, we will find discriminant

$D=\sqrt{b^2-4ac}$

now, we can compare with

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

$y=3x^2+7x+m$

and then we can find a , b and c

$a=3,b=7,c=m$

now, we can find D

$D=\sqrt{7^2-4*3*m}$

$D=\sqrt{49-12m}$

It has two x-intercepts

so,

$D=\sqrt{49-12m}>0$

now, we can solve for m

$49-12m>0$

$12m$

$m$ ............Answer

For each part of this problem, show all your work and write a probability statement.

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Follows are the answer to the given point.

Step-by-step explanation:

In point 1:

$\to P( \text{number of response}) = \frac{192}{338} \\$

$= \frac{96}{169}\\\\= 0.56$

In point 2:

$\to P| \text{(Zoloft and fill response)}| = \frac{27}{338}$

$= 0.079$

In point 3:

$\to P(\frac{\text{ full or partial}}{\text{St. John's Wort}}) = \frac{\frac{43}{338}}{\frac{113}{338}}$

$= \frac{43}{338} \times \frac{338} {113}\\\\= \frac{43}{113}\\\\= 0.38$

In point 4:

$\to P(\frac{\text{Placebo}}{\text{full or response}}) = P(\frac{(\text{Placebo} \cap \text{full or response})} {\text{p(full response)}})$

$= \frac{\frac{79}{338}}{ 1- \frac{91}{338}} \\\\ = \frac{\frac{79}{338}}{ \frac{338-91}{338}} \\\\ = \frac{\frac{79}{338}}{\frac{247}{338}} \\\\ = \frac{79}{338} \times \frac {338}{247} \\\\= \frac{79}{274} \\\\ = 0.28$

Given: 8x-61=17, prove: 39/4

Degger [83]

Answer:

The solution is $x = \frac{39}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following equation:

8x - 61 = 17

We want to find the solution, that is, the value of x. So

$8x - 61 = 17$

$8x = 78$

$x = \frac{78}{8}$

Simplifying by 2

$x = \frac{39}{4}$

The solution is $x = \frac{39}{4}$
