Answer:

x = \sqrt{145}

Step-by-step explanation:

Use pythagorean theorem.

17^2 - 12^2 = x^2

Solve the system of equations below algebraically <br> 2x+3y=6 and -5x+2y=4
Charra [1.4K]


Steps
I’m using elimination so I’m trying to get rid of y
To do that I multiply the first equation by 2 and the second by -3. Then solve
4x + 6x = 12
15x + -6x = -12
—————————
19x + 0 = 0
Divid by 19 to get x to one side. 0/19 is 0 so
X= 0
Plug that into an equation so 0 + 3y = 6
Divid by 3 and y = 2
Answer x = 0 y = 2

The value of y varies inversely as the cube of x and y=1 when x=6. Find the value of y when x =2.
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

y=27 when x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

y varies inversely as the cube of x

y=k(1/X^3)

y=1 when x=6

y=k(1/X^3)

1=k(1/6^3)

1=k(1/216)

k=1÷1/216

K=1×216/1

k=216

find y when x=2

y=k(1/X^3)

y=216(1/2^3)

y=216(1/8)

y=216/8

y=27

Let's use the slope intercept form of a line which is:

y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept.

Mathematically m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) and the y-intercept is just the value of y when x is equal to zero, where the line intercepts the y axis...

First you want to find the slope by finding two clearly identifiable points on the graph...I'll pick (4,4) and (0,1), now we can calculate the slope or "m"...

m=(4-1)/(4-0)=3/4 so now we can say our line is:

y=0.75x+b, using point (4,4) we can now solve for b.

4=0.75(4)+b

4=3+b

b=1 so the line is"

y=0.75x+1
