Two lines have the given equations. Use the LINEAR COMBINATION METHOD to solve.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Maurinko [17]3 years ago

Using linear combination method, the solution to given system of equations are (-7, -15)

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Linear combination is the process of adding two algebraic equations so that one of the variables is eliminated

Addition is used when the two equations have terms that are exact opposites, and subtraction is used when the two equations have terms that are the same.

<u><em>Given system of equations are:</em></u>

2x - y = 1  ---- eqn 1

3x - y = -6 ------ eqn 2

Subtract eqn 2 from eqn 1

2x - y = 1

3x - y = -6

(-) -------------

-x = 7

<h3>x = -7</h3>

Substitute x = -7 in eqn 1

2(-7) - y = 1

-14 - y = 1

y = -14 - 1 = -15

<h3>y = -15</h3>

Thus the solution to given system of equations are (-7, -15)

A new lawn has a perimeter of 278ft. And a width of 64ft. A bag of grass seed will cover 384ft of ground. How many bags of grass
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

13 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the lawn: A=lw

w= 64 ft

P= 2(l+w)= 278 ft ⇒

  • l= 278/2- 64= 75 ft
  • A= 64*75= 4800 ft²

bags of seed required:

  • 4800/384= 12.5 so 13  full bags needed

How do you write the equation of this description: the graph of a parabola has a vertex of (2,3) and vertically stretched by 3
Mademuasel [1]

The equation of parabola is  y = 3x²- 12x+ 15.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The equation of the parabola is given as y = x².

If it has a vertex then the equation can be written as,

y = a(x-h)² + k

where (h, k ) is the vertex and a is the stretching or compressing factor.

So here the vertex is (2,3) and it is vertically stretched by 3.

So the equation is given as,

y = 3(x-2)² + 3

y = 3(x² -4x+4) + 3

 = 3x² - 12x + 12 + 3

y = 3x²- 12x+ 15 is the equation of the parabola.

klasskru [66]

Answer:

  • D. A translation 1 unit to the right followed by a 270-degree counterclockwise rotation about the origin

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>See the picture for better visual</em>

Take segments ST and S'T'. If we extend them they will intersect at right angle.

It is the indication that the rotation is 90° or 270° but not 180°, when the corresponding segments come parallel.

The QRST is in the quadrant IV and Q'R'S'T' is in the quadrant III, which mean the rotation is 90° clockwise or 270° counterclockwise.

<u>This rotation rule is:</u>

  • (x, y) → (y, -x)

We also see the points S and T have x-coordinate of 5 but their images have y-coordinates of -6. It means the translation to the right by 1 unit was the step before rotation.

<u>We now can conclude the correct choice is D:</u>

  • A translation 1 unit to the right followed by a 270-degree counterclockwise rotation about the origin

-6-5[-4-(6+12)]+(-5)
Luden [163]

Answer:

99

Step-by-step explanation:

-6-5[-4-(6+12)]+(-5)

Following PEMDAS

We work the parentheses from the inside out

-6-5[-4-(18)]+(-5)

-6-5[-22]+(-5)

Now we multiply

-6+110 -5

Now we add and subtract from left to right

104 -5

Write an equation in slope intercept form to model the situation.
lozanna [386]

Answer:

y=-\frac{1}{2}x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is a way of modeling a quadratic equation, where the coefficient of the term (x) is the slope (change) of the line, and the constant is the y-intercept. In essence;( y=mx+b ), where (m) is the slope and (b) is the y-intercept.

The slope of the given line is (-\frac{1}{2}) because, this is the rate at which the candle burns, therefore, it is the change in the line. The change is (\frac{1}{2}) because this is the rate of burning, the slope is also negative since the height is decreasing. (10) is the y-intercept because it is the starting height of the candle. One will take the time since the start of burning the candle, multiply it by the slope, and add it to the y-intercept to find the current height of the candle. Therefore, the equation is (y=-\frac{1}{2}x + 10), where the output (y) is the current height of the candle, and the input (x) is the time at which the measruement was taken.
