Answer:
the answer is -117/424, hope this helps :)
All linear functions have in common...
1. Their highest exponent is 1.
2. The graphs of the equations are lines.
When finding things in common between different types of functions, you always have to look at the two sides of math; geometry and algebra. Geometry is all the graphs, and algebra is the equations.
I hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
Let vertical height of ladder from ground be y and
horizontal distance of the base of the ladder from the wall be x respectively.
Length of the ladder = l (constant) = 10 ft
<u>Using Pythagoras theorem</u>:

Differentiate both sides w.r.t time


<u>We know that</u> (After 1 sec, y = 6 ft and x = 8 ft ; dy/dt = 2 ft/sec)


<u>( Ignore - ive sign)</u>
Therefore, bottom of the ladder is sliding away from the wall at a speed of 1.5 ft/sec one second after the ladder starts sliding.
Answer:
The solution of the system is (5, 20).
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 4x and 3x + 2y = 55 are simultaneous equations. To find the unknowns, we have to solve these equations simultaneously.
The first can be rewritten as
4x – y = 0.
Therefore, we have:
4x – y = 0
3x + 2y = 55
Multiplying the first equation by 2 all through, we have
8x – 2y = 0.
So we can now combine the second equation with the first multiplied by 2.
8x – 2y = 0
3x + 2y = 55
Adding these equations we have:
11x = 55
Divide both sides by 11 and we have
x = 5
Substitute x = 5 in equation 1, we have
4(5) – y = 0
y = 20.
Therefore, x = 5 and y = 20.
The solution of the system is (5, 20).
