Answer:

Width: 160

Length: 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Width = 2x and length = x

X + 0.5x + 2x - 0.4x = 248

3.1x = 248

X = 248/3.1

X = 80

Width = (2)(80) and length = 80

Apply the zero matirx:<br> [16 -24] + [ 0 0 ]=[ x y]<br> X=? Y=?
Ainat [17]

Answer:

x = 16

y = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the addition of matrices is done when matrices are of the same dimension. In this case, you are in fact adding matrices of the same dimension (dimension 1x2). Recall as well that in the addition of matrices, the elements of each matrix combine only with the element located in the exact same position in the other matrix.

So for this case the first element of the first matrix "16" combines with the first element of the second matrix "0" resulting in an element of value16 + 0 =16 in the new matrix.

Equally, the second element of the first matrix "-24" combines with the second element of the second matrix, resulting in : -24 + 0 = -24.

Therefore, the matrix resultant from this addition is: [16   -24] (same form of the first matrix, which indicates that adding a zero matrix to an existing matrix will not change the first matrix.

Is -x+4y=-2 a direct variation?
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation: two variables, one variable is a constant multiple of another variable

y = k x  .... k constant

-x+4y=-2

4y = x - 2

y = 1/4 x -1/2  ..... y = k x + b    y is not a simple multiple of x

Two mechanics worked on a car. the first mechanic worked for 10 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 15 hours. together the
Yuliya22 [10]
Let x and y be the rate per hour for Mechanic 1 and 2 respectively.

Then,
x+y=205 ---------- (1)
Additionally,
10x+15y = 2500 ------ (2)

Solving equations 1 and 2;
Multiply (1) by 10 and subtract two from the result,
10x+10y = 2050
10x +15 y =2500
----------------------
        -5 y = --450 => y = 450/5 = $90
Then,
x= 205-90 = $115

Therefore,
Mechanic 1 charged $115 per hour
Mechanic 2 charged $90 per hour
