Solve each system of equations using substitution. a=5b+8 a=-10b-7​

Mathematics

Answer:

a = 3, b = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 5b + 8

a = -10b - 7

5b + 8 = -10b - 7

Add 10b from both sides;

15b + 8 = -7

Subtract 8 from both sides;

15b = -15

Divide both sides by 15;

b = -1

Lets substitute b;

a = 5b + 8

a = 5(-1) + 8

a = -5 + 8

a = 3

Is 1/3 greater than 5/6
Harman [31]
1/3 or 5/6 

Lets make the fractions into decimals. To make a fraction into decimal you have to divide the numerator by the denominator. The numerator is the top part of a fraction and the denominator is the bottom part of the fraction.

Calculations

1/3
1 ÷ 3 =  0.3333.... 

5/6 
5 ÷ 6 = 0.83333...

0.83333... is greater then 0.3333.....
Therefore 5/6 is greater then 1/3 
1/3 is smaller then 5/6

A particle moves along the x-axis so that at any time t, t ≥ 0, its acceleration is a(t) = -4sin(2t). If the velocity of the par
sasho [114]

The velocity of the particle is given by

v(t)=v(0)+\displaystyle\int_0^ta(u)\,\mathrm du

Since a(t)=-4\sin2t and v(0)=7, we get

\displaystyle\int_0^ta(u)\,\mathrm du=\int_0^t-4\sin2u\,\mathrm du=2\cos2u\bigg|_0^t=2\cos2t-2

\implies v(t)=2\cos2t+5

Similarly, the position function is obtained via

x(t)=x(0)+\displaystyle\int_0^tv(u)\,\mathrm du

We know v(t) and we're told that x(0)=0, so

\displaystyle\int_0^tv(u)\,\mathrm du=\int_0^t(2\cos2u+5)\,\mathrm du=\sin2u+5u\bigg|_0^t=\sin2t+5t

\implies x(t)=\sin2t+5t

making the answer A.
