Answer:

calculus, geometry, arithmetic among a few

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematics is involved in winter Olympics in different aspects like arithmetic which helps in scores, measurements, quantities and motion  of the sport  like hockey, running.

Scoring in ice skating involves arithmetic operation when an individual element is assigned points and  judged on performance level( triple axle is 3 points but overall performance and artistry is measured by the judges).  

Another is Calculus  which helps to understand the change in acceleration and velocities while each skaters start at zero then win, Lines in Geometry such as the finish/start/sight lines helps players with angles of reflection, measuring angles and angles of incidence.

elena-s [515]
Answer:
129 points
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L and C represent the scores of Luke and Caleb, respectively.
L = 2C -15 . . . . . Luke scored 15 less than twice the number Caleb did
L +C = 201 . . . . . they scored 201 points altogether
Add twice the second equation to the first:
2(L +C) + (L) = 2(201) + (2C -15)
3L +2C = 387 +2C . . . . simplify
3L = 387 . . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 2C
L = 387/3 = 129 . . . . . . .divide by 3
Luke scored 129 points.

Problema de capacidades Una empresa aceitera ha envasado 3000 litros de aceite en 1200 botellas de dos y de cinco litros. ¿Cuánt
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Hay 200 botellas de 5 litros y 1000 botellas de 2 litros.

Step-by-step explanation:

Un sistema de ecuaciones lineales es un conjunto de dos o más ecuaciones de primer grado, en el cual se relacionan dos o más incógnitas.

Resolver un sistema de ecuaciones consiste en encontrar el valor de cada incógnita para que se cumplan todas las ecuaciones del sistema.

En este caso, las variables a calcular son:

  • x= cantidad de botellas de 2 litros.
  • y= cantidad de botellas de 5 litros.

Una empresa aceitera ha envasado 3000 litros de aceite en 1200 botellas de dos y de cinco litros. Entonces es posible plantear el siguiente sistema de ecuaciones:

\left \{ {{2*x+5*y=3000} \atop {x+y=1200}} \right.

Existen varios métodos para resolver un sistema de ecuaciones. Resolviendo por el método de sustitución, que consiste en despejar o aislar una de las incógnitas y sustituir su expresión en la otra ecuación, despejas x de la segunda ecuación:

x= 1200 - y

Sustituyendo la expresión en la primer ecuación:

2*(1200 - y) + 5*y=3000

Resolviendo se obtiene:

2*1200 - 2*y + 5*y= 3000

2400 +3*y= 3000

3*y= 3000 - 2400

3*y= 600

y= 600÷3

y= 200

Reemplazando en la expresión x= 1200 - y:

x= 1200 - y

x=1200 -200

x= 1000
