I will solve this equation simultaneously by Substitution.

- x + y = 2
5x + 4y = 17

Solve - x + y = 2 for y:
- x + y + x = 2 + x (here we add x to both sides)
y = x + 2

Substitute x + 2 for y in 5x + 4y = 17
5x + 4y = 17
5x + 4(x + 2) = 17
5x + 4x + 8 = 17
9x + 8 = 17 (simplify both sides of the equation)
9x + 8 + (-8) = 17 + (-8) (add -8 to both sides)
9x = 9
9x/9 = 9/9 (divide both sides by 9)

x = 1

Substitute 1 for x in y = x + 2
y = x + 2
y = 1 + 2
y = 3 ( simplify both sides of the equation)

Therefore x = 1 and y = 3

Write a sine function that has an amplitude of 5, a midline of 3 and a period of 1/8.
vodomira [7]

Answer:

y=5sin(16pix)+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Amp=5 means our curve is either y=5sin(bx+c)+d or y=-5sin(bx+c)+d.

y=sin(x) has period 2pi.

So y=sin(bx) has period 2pi/b.

We want 2pi/b=1/8.

Cross multiplying gives: 16pi=b

y=5sin(16pix+c)+d

d=3 since we want midline y=3.

y=5sin(16pix+c)+3

We can choose c=0 since we aren't required to have a certain phase shift.

y=5sin(16pix)+3

There are 1,657 souvenir paperweights that need to be packed in boxes. Each box will hold 17
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Therefore we can say that 98 boxes will be needed to hold all the paperweights.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) there are 1657 souvenir paperweights that need to be packed in boxes.

ii) each box will hold 17 paperweights

iii) therefore the number of boxes that will be needed are

   = \dfrac{total\hspace{0.15cm} number\hspace{0.15cm} souvenir\hspace{0.15cm} paperweights}{number\hspace{0.15cm} of\hspace{0.15cm} paperweights\hspace{0.15cm} per\hspace{0.15cm} box}  = \dfrac{1657}{17} = 97.471

iv) Therefore we can say that 98 boxes will be needed to hold all the paperweights.
