Answer:

x = 7

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assign the baseball to x and soccer to y. If each baseball game takes 2 hours and each soccer game takes 1 hour and we don't want to spend more than 15 hours we get the equation:

2x + y = 15

We have one equation now and we can get the second one from the number of games. We know that we want to attend 8 games therefore the number of baseball games plus the number of soccer games must be equal so we can use the equation:

x + y = 8

Now that we have our two equations we can use elimination to get x and y.

2x + y = 15

x + y = 8

isolate one of the variables from either equation. I chose to isolate x from the second equation givnig me:

x = 8 - y

now we can plug x back into the first equation to solve for y.

2x + y = 15

2(8 - y) + y = 15

16 - 2y + y = 15

-y = -1

y = 1

now that we have y we can solve for x by pluging it back into one of the origoriginal equations.

x = 8 - y

x = 8 - 1

x = 7

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (−3,−1) and is perpendicular to the line x-2y=6?
gogolik [260]

Answer:

y = 2x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

rearrange the equation to make y the sof

y = 1/2x - 3

to find gradient of perpendicular line

1/2 ÷ ( - 1 )

y = -2x + c , the replace the coordinates (-3,-1)

y = 2x + 5

What is the completely factored from of 9x2+24x+16
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

(3x+4)(3x+4) is factor of given expression.

B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an expression 9x^2+24x+16

Formula: a^2+2ab+b^2=(a+b)^2

First we write each term as perfect square as formula.

\Rightarrow 9x^2+24x+16

\Rightarrow (3x)^2+2\cdot 3x\cdot 4+4^2

Using formula , a=3x and b=4

\therefore (3x)^2+2\cdot 3x\cdot 4+4^2=(3x+4)^2

Now we write same number two times.

Hence, (3x+4)(3x+4) is factor of given expression.
