Solve the system of equations.<br><br><br><br> −2x+5y =−35<br> 7x+2y =25
Otrada [13]

Answer:

The equations have one solution at (5, -5).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a system of equations:

\displaystyle{\left \{ {{-2x+5y=-35} \atop {7x+2y=25}} \right.}

This system of equations can be solved in three different ways:

  1. Graphing the equations (method used)
  2. Substituting values into the equations
  3. Eliminating variables from the equations

<u>Graphing the Equations</u>

We need to solve each equation and place it in slope-intercept form first. Slope-intercept form is \text{y = mx + b}.

Equation 1 is -2x+5y = -35. We need to isolate y.

\displaystyle{-2x + 5y = -35}\\\\5y = 2x - 35\\\\\frac{5y}{5} = \frac{2x - 35}{5}\\\\y = \frac{2}{5}x - 7

Equation 1 is now y=\frac{2}{5}x-7.

Equation 2 also needs y to be isolated.

\displaystyle{7x+2y=25}\\\\2y=-7x+25\\\\\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{-7x+25}{2}\\\\y = -\frac{7}{2}x + \frac{25}{2}

Equation 2 is now y=-\frac{7}{2}x+\frac{25}{2}.

Now, we can graph both of these using a data table and plotting points on the graph. If the two lines intersect at a point, this is a solution for the system of equations.

The table below has unsolved y-values - we need to insert the value of x and solve for y and input these values in the table.

\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2} \textbf{x} & \textbf{y} \\ \cline{1-2} 0 & a \\ \cline{1-2} 1 & b \\ \cline{1-2} 2 & c \\ \cline{1-2} 3 & d \\ \cline{1-2} 4 & e \\ \cline{1-2} 5 & f \\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 0,}

\displaystyle{y = \frac{2}{5}(0) - 7}\\\\y = 0 - 7\\\\y = -7

\bullet \ \text{For x = 1,}

\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(1)-7}\\\\y=\frac{2}{5}-7\\\\y = -\frac{33}{5}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 2,}

\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(2)-7}\\\\y = \frac{4}{5}-7\\\\y = -\frac{31}{5}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 3,}

\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(3)-7}\\\\y= \frac{6}{5}-7\\\\y=-\frac{29}{5}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 4,}

\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(4)-7}\\\\y = \frac{8}{5}-7\\\\y=-\frac{27}{5}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 5,}

\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(5)-7}\\\\y=2-7\\\\y=-5

Now, we can place these values in our table.

\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2} \textbf{x} & \textbf{y} \\ \cline{1-2} 0 & -7 \\ \cline{1-2} 1 & -33/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 2 & -31/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 3 & -29/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 4 & -27/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 5 & -5 \\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}

As we can see in our table, the rate of decrease is -\frac{2}{5}. In case we need to determine more values, we can easily either replace x with a new value in the equation or just subtract -\frac{2}{5} from the previous value.

For Equation 2, we need to use the same process. Equation 2 has been resolved to be y=-\frac{7}{2}x+\frac{25}{2}. Therefore, we just use the same process as before to solve for the values.

\bullet \ \text{For x = 0,}

\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(0)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = 0 + \frac{25}{2}\\\\y = \frac{25}{2}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 1,}

\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(1)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = -\frac{7}{2} + \frac{25}{2}\\\\y = 9

\bullet \ \text{For x = 2,}

\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(2)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = -7+\frac{25}{2}\\\\y = \frac{11}{2}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 3,}

\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(3)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = -\frac{21}{2}+\frac{25}{2}\\\\y = 2

\bullet \ \text{For x = 4,}

\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(4)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y=-14+\frac{25}{2}\\\\y = -\frac{3}{2}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 5,}

\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(5)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = -\frac{35}{2}+\frac{25}{2}\\\\y = -5

And now, we place these values into the table.

\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2} \textbf{x} & \textbf{y} \\ \cline{1-2} 0 & 25/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 1 & 9 \\ \cline{1-2} 2 & 11/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 3 & 2 \\ \cline{1-2} 4 & -3/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 5 & -5 \\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}

When we compare our two tables, we can see that we have one similarity - the points are the same at x = 5.

Equation 1                  Equation 2

\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2} \textbf{x} & \textbf{y} \\ \cline{1-2} 0 & -7 \\ \cline{1-2} 1 & -33/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 2 & -31/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 3 & -29/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 4 & -27/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 5 & -5 \\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}                 \begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2} \textbf{x} & \textbf{y} \\ \cline{1-2} 0 & 25/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 1 & 9 \\ \cline{1-2} 2 & 11/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 3 & 2 \\ \cline{1-2} 4 & -3/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 5 & -5 \\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}

Therefore, using this data, we have one solution at (5, -5).

Find the volume of the rectangular prism. Write your answer as a fraction.
suter [353]

Answer:

V = 8/125 cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

This prism is actually a cube of side length 2/5.

The volume of a cube of side length s is V = s^3.

Here, the volume of the cube (rectangular prism) is V = (2/5)^3, or

V = 8/125 cubic units

Give at least one way that terminal-digit and middle-digit numbering are alike and one way that they are different.
belka [17]

Terminal digit filing is a filing system that works by means of the last two numbers on files to consolidate them. While middle digit filling uses a tripartite number, using the first part of the number for the second sort, middle part for the initial sort, and the third portion for the final sort. One way they are similar is that the two evade working with large numbers and overpowers the difficulties of crowding at the end of the storage.

There are 20,000 members of a zoo. The percent of
schepotkina [342]

1500 members have a contributor  membership.

64.8% of the noncontributory  memberships are individual memberships.

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

There are 20,000 members of a zoo.

⇒ Total members = 20,000

From the graph shown,

7.5% of the members have a contributor  membership.

<u>To find the number of members who have contributor  membership :</u>

⇒ 7.5% of 20,000

⇒ (7.5/100) × 20,000

⇒ 7.5 × 200

⇒ 1500 members.

Therefore, 1500 members have a contributor  membership.

<u>To find the percentage of the noncontributory  memberships are individual memberships :</u>

The percentage of noncontributory  memberships = 100% - 7.5% ⇒ 92.5%

The percentage of individual memberships = 60%

∴ What percentage of the noncontributory  memberships are individual memberships ⇒ (60 / 92.5) × 100 = 64.8%
