Answer:

(6,-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. -10x-15y=30

-10x-15y+15y=30+15y

-10x/-10=30+15y/-10

x=-3 -3/2

plug in the other equation and solve for y

-9x-5y=-24

-9(-3-3/2)-5y=-24

y=-6

plug -6 in for y in one of the original equations

-9x-5y=-24

-9x-5(-6)=-24

solve for x

x=6

A ball is dropped from a height of 192 inches onto a level floor. After the third bounce it is still 3 inches off the ground. Pr

ANEK [815]

Answer: The required fraction = $\dfrac18$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the required fraction = $\dfrac{p}{q}$

Given: Initial height = 192 inches

Height of ball after second bounce = $\dfrac{p}{q}\times192$

Height of ball after third bounce = $\dfrac{p}{q}\times\dfrac{p}{q}\times192=192\dfrac{p^2}{q^2}$

After the third bounce it is 3 inches off the ground.

So,

$(\dfrac{p}{q})^2192=3\\\\\\(\dfrac{p}{q})^2=\dfrac{3}{192}\\\\(\dfrac{p}{q})^2=\dfrac{1}{64}\\\\(\dfrac{p}{q})^2=(\dfrac{1}{8})^2\\\\ \dfrac{p}{q}=\dfrac{1}{8}$

Hence, The required fraction = $\dfrac18$
