Answer:

  (x, y) = (-1, -16) or (3, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps you want to solve the system of equations ...

  • y = x^2 +2x -15
  • y -4x = -12

Substituting the first expression for y into the second equation gives ...

  x^2 +2x -15 -4x = -12

  x^2 -2x -3 = 0 . . . . . . . . add 12

  (x -3)(x +1) = 0 . . . . . . .  factor

Solutions are the values of x that make the factors zero: x = 3, x = -1.

The corresponding values of y are ...

  y = -12 +4x

  y = -12 +4{-1, 3} = -12 +{-4, 12} = {-16, 0}

The solutions to the system are ...

  (x, y) = (-1, -16) or (3, 0)

Answer:

The mentioned number in the exercise is:

  • <u>362</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the mentioned number in the exercise, first you must write the equations you can obtain with it.

If:

  • x = hundredths digit
  • y = tens digit
  • z = ones digit

We can write:

  1. x = z + 1 (the hundreds digit is one more than the ones digit).
  2. y = 2x (the tens digit is twice the hundreds digit).
  3. x + y + z = 11 (the sum of the digits is 11).

Taking into account these data, we can use the third equation and replace it to obtain the number and the value of each digit:

  • x + y + z = 11
  • (z + 1) + y + z = 11 (remember x = z + 1)
  • z + 1 + y + z = 11
  • z + z +y + 1 = 11 (we just ordered the equation)
  • 2z + y + 1 = 11 (z + z = 2z)
  • 2z + y = 11 - 1 (we passed the +1 to the other side of the equality to subtract)
  • 2z + y = 10
  • 2z + (2x) = 10 (remember y = 2x)
  • 2z + 2x = 10
  • 2z + 2(z + 1) = 10 (x = z + 1 again)
  • 2z + 2z + 2 = 10
  • 4z + 2 = 10
  • 4z = 10 - 2
  • 4z = 8
  • z = 8/4
  • <u>z = 2</u>

Now, we know z (the ones digit) is 2, we can use the first equation to obtain the value of x:

  • x = z + 1
  • x = 2 + 1
  • <u>x = 3</u>

And we'll use the second equation to obtain the value of y (the tens digit):

  • y = 2x
  • y = 2(3)
  • <u>y = 6</u>

Organizing the digits, we obtain the number:

  • Number = xyz
  • <u>Number = 362</u>

As you can see, <em><u>the obtained number is 362</u></em>.

Linear model function
sveticcg [70]

Using equations of linear model function, the number of hours Jeremy wants to skate is calculated as 3.

<h3>How to Write the Equation of a Linear Model Function?</h3>

The equation that can represent a linear model function is, y = mx + b, where m is the unit rate and b is the initial value.

Equation for Rink A:

Unit rate (m) = (35 - 19)/(5 - 1) = 16/4 = 4

Substitute (x, y) = (1, 19) and m = 4 into y = mx + b to find b:

19 = 4(1) + b

19 - 4 = b

b = 15

Substitute m = 4 and b = 15 into y = mx + b:

y = 4x + 15 [equation for Rink A]

Equation for Rink B:

Unit rate (m) = (39 - 15)/(5 - 1) = 24/4 = 6

Substitute (x, y) = (1, 15) and m = 6 into y = mx + b to find b:

15 = 6(1) + b

15 - 6 = b

b = 9

Substitute m = 6 and b = 9 into y = mx + b:

y = 6x + 9 [equation for Rink B]

To find how many hours (x) both would cost the same (y), make both equation equal to each other

4x + 15 = 6x + 9

4x - 6x = -15 + 9

-2x = -6

x = 3

The hours Jeremy wants to skate is 3.

HELP!!!
uranmaximum [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

10 gallons of gas is $29.50

10 gallons of gas = $29.50

10 gallons of gas / 10 = $29.50 / 10

1 gallon of gas = $2.95

Per x gallons of gas,

1 gallon of gas * x = $2.95 * x

x gallons of gas = $2.95 * x
