Solve the following system of equations by substitution. PLEASE HELP!

Mathematics
1 answer:
BartSMP [9]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

(1,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -1

5x+7y = -2

Substitute the first equation into the second

5x + 7(-1) =-2

5x -7 = -2

Add 7 to each side

5x-7+7 = -2+7

5x= 5

Divide by 5

5x/5 = 5/5

x =1

(1,-1)

scoray [572]

let's firstly convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then add.

\bf \stackrel{mixed}{2\frac{7}{10}}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 10+7}{10}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{27}{10}}~\hfill \stackrel{mixed}{8\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{8\cdot 2+1}{2}\stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{17}{2}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{27}{10}+\cfrac{17}{2}\implies \stackrel{\textit{using an LCD of 10}}{\cfrac{(1)27+(5)17}{10}}\implies \cfrac{27+85}{10}\implies \cfrac{112}{10}\implies \cfrac{56}{5}\implies 11\frac{1}{5}

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

a person travel 50 ft from the bottom to the top of the escalator

Step-by-step explanation:

An escalator lifts people to the second floor of a building, 25 ft above the first floor. The escalator rises at a 30 degree angle

The escalator forms a right angle triangle

opposite to 30 degree angle is 25 feet. to find the distance from the bottom to the top of the escalator we find the hypotenuse

let x be the hypotenuse

sin(theta)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

sin(30)=\frac{25}{x}\\x sin(30)= 25\\x=\frac{25}{sin(30)} \\x=50\\

a person travel 50 ft from the bottom to the top of the escalator

This is the graph of y = -x2 - 2x + 8.<br><br> What is the range of this function?
balandron [24]

Hi there!

\large\boxed{(-\infty, 9)}

We can find the range using completing the square:

y = -x² - 2x + 8

Factor out a -1:

y = -(x² + 2x) + 8

Use the first two terms. Take the second term's coefficient, divide by 2, and square:

y = -(x² + 2x + 1) + 8  

Remember to add by 1 because we cannot randomly add an additional number into the equation:

y = -(x² + 2x + 1) + 8 + 1

Simplify:

y = -(x + 1)² + 9

Since the graph opens downward (negative coefficient), the range is (-∞, 9)
