Answer: -1 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 1st number

b = 2nd number

a + b = 1

a - b = -3

Use the elimination method. You will get

2a = 1 + -3 = -2

a = -2/2

a = -1

a + b = 1

Substitute a for -1

-1 + b = 1

Add 1 to both sides

b = 2

<em>The two numbers are -1 and 2</em>

<em></em>

Hope that helped!

Answers for both boxes please ​
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

x = -5  y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x + 2y = 9

multiply the 2nd equation by 3 to set it up for elimination

3(x - 3y)= 3(4)

3x-9y = 12

so now combine both to add

-3x + 2y = 9

3x - 9y = 12

Adding both gives you

-7y = 21

divide both by -7 and you get

y = -3

and you substitute y back into equation to get x

x - 3 (-3) = 4   gives you

x + 9 = 4

x = 4 - 9

x = -5

4.6.3 Test (CST): Linear Equations
inn [45]

The slope of the green line if the lines are perpendicular is -1/4

<h3>Perpendicular lines</h3>

For two lines two be perpendicular, the product of their slope must be -1. Let the slope of the red and green line be m1 and m2.

Given the following

Slope of red line = 4

According the definition

4m2 = -1

m2 = -1/4

Hence the slope of the green line if the lines are perpendicular is -1/4

Plant A: A graph has time (weeks) on the x-axis, and height (inches) on the y-axis. A line goes through points (0, 3), (1, 4.8),
butalik [34]

Answer:

The correct option is;

No, The greater rate of change of Plant A will result in it being 0.9 inches taller in 6 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

Plant A:

Weeks,    Height

0,               3

1,                4.8

2,               6.6

3,               8.4

The rate of change of height, H per week, t,\left (\dfrac{dH}{dt} \right )  for plant A per week is therefore;

\dfrac{dH}{dt} =  \dfrac{H_n - H_{(n-1)} }{t_n - t_{(n-1)}} = \dfrac{8.4 - 3 }{3 - 0} = \dfrac{5.4}{3} = 1.8 \ inches/week

Therefore we have;

H = 1.8 × t + 3

At week 6,

H = 3 + 6×1.8 = 13.8 inches

Plant B

Weeks,    Height

2,               7.3

3,               8.7

4,               10.1

The rate of change of height, H per week, t,\left (\dfrac{dH}{dt} \right )  for plant B per week is given as follows;

\dfrac{dH}{dt} =  \dfrac{H_n - H_{(n-1)} }{t_n - t_{(n-1)}} = \dfrac{10.1 - 7.3 }{4 - 2} = \dfrac{2.8}{2} = 1.4 \ inches/week

Therefore we have;

When t = 2, H = 7.3 hence, 7.3 = 2 × 1.4 + H₀

Where:

H₀ = H at t = 0

H₀ = 7.3 - 2 × 1.4 = 4.5

At week 6 we have;

H = 4.5 + 6×1.4 = 12.9 inches

Which indicates that Plant A will be 0.9 inches taller than Plant B at week 6.

The correct option is therefore;

No, The greater rate of change of Plant A will result in it being 0.9 inches taller in 6 weeks.
