Mathematics
1 answer:
geniusboy [140]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate 10% of total = 3 / 1.5 = 2

Multiply by 10x since 10% is 1/10 of 100%

2 x 10 = 20

This 1 seems really complicated
Fofino [41]
The solution to this system set is:  "x = 4" , "y = 0" ;  or write as:  [4, 0] .
________________________________________________________
Given: 
________________________________________________________
 y = - 4x + 16 ; 

 4y − x + 4 = 0 ;
________________________________________________________
"Solve the system using substitution" .
________________________________________________________
First, let us simplify the second equation given, to get rid of the "0" ; 

→  4y − x + 4 = 0 ; 

Subtract "4" from each side of the equation ; 

→  4y − x + 4 − 4 = 0 − 4 ;

→  4y − x = -4 ;
________________________________________________________
So, we can now rewrite the two (2) equations in the given system:
________________________________________________________
   
y = - 4x + 16 ;   ===> Refer to this as "Equation 1" ; 

4y − x =  -4 ;     ===> Refer to this as "Equation 2" ; 
________________________________________________________
Solve for "x" and "y" ;  using "substitution" :
________________________________________________________
We are given, as "Equation 1" ;

→  " y = - 4x + 16 " ;
_______________________________________________________
→  Plug in this value for [all of] the value[s] for "y" into {"Equation 2"} ;

       to solve for "x" ;   as follows:
_______________________________________________________
Note:  "Equation 2" :

     →  " 4y − x =  - 4 " ; 
_________________________________________________
Substitute the value for "y" {i.e., the value provided for "y";  in "Equation 1}" ;
for into the this [rewritten version of] "Equation 2" ;
→ and "rewrite the equation" ;

→   as follows:  
_________________________________________________

→   " 4 (-4x + 16) − x = -4 " ;
_________________________________________________
Note the "distributive property" of multiplication :
_________________________________________________

   a(b + c)  = ab + ac ;   AND: 

   a(b − c) = ab <span>− ac .
_________________________________________________
As such:

We have:  
</span>
→   " 4 (-4x + 16) − x = - 4 " ;
_________________________________________________
AND:

→    "4 (-4x + 16) "  =  (4* -4x) + (4 *16)  =  " -16x + 64 " ;
_________________________________________________
Now, we can write the entire equation:

→  " -16x + 64 − x = - 4 " ; 

Note:  " - 16x − x =  -16x − 1x = -17x " ; 

→  " -17x + 64 = - 4 " ;   Solve for "x" ; 

Subtract "64" from EACH SIDE of the equation:

→  " -17x + 64 − 64 = - 4 − 64 " ;   

to get:  

→  " -17x = -68 " ;

Divide EACH side of the equation by "-17" ; 
   to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ; 

→  -17x / -17 = -68/ -17 ; 

to get:  

→  x = 4  ;
______________________________________
Now, Plug this value for "x" ; into "{Equation 1"} ; 

which is:  " y = -4x + 16" ; to solve for "y".
______________________________________

→  y = -4(4) + 16 ; 

        = -16 + 16 ; 

→ y = 0 .
_________________________________________________________
The solution to this system set is:  "x = 4" , "y = 0" ;  or write as:  [4, 0] .
_________________________________________________________
Now, let us check our answers—as directed in this very question itself ; 
_________________________________________________________
→  Given the TWO (2) originally given equations in the system of equation; as they were originally rewitten; 

→  Let us check;  

→  For EACH of these 2 (TWO) equations;  do these two equations hold true {i.e. do EACH SIDE of these equations have equal values on each side} ; when we "plug in" our obtained values of "4" (for "x") ; and "0" for "y" ??? ; 

→ Consider the first equation given in our problem, as originally written in the system of equations:

→  " y = - 4x + 16 " ;    

→ Substitute:  "4" for "x" and "0" for "y" ;  When done, are both sides equal?

→  "0 = ?  -4(4) + 16 " ?? ;   →  "0 = ? -16 + 16 ?? " ;  →  Yes!  ;

 {Actually, that is how we obtained our value for "y" initially.}.

→ Now, let us check the other equation given—as originally written in this very question:

→  " 4y − x + 4 = ?? 0 ??? " ;

→ Let us "plug in" our obtained values into the equation;

 {that is:  "4" for the "x-value" ; & "0" for the "y-value" ;  

→  to see if the "other side of the equation" {i.e., the "right-hand side"} holds true {i.e., in the case of this very equation—is equal to "0".}.

→    " 4(0)  −  4 + 4 = ? 0 ?? " ;

      →  " 0  −  4  + 4 = ? 0 ?? " ;

      →  " - 4  + 4 = ? 0 ?? " ;  Yes!
_____________________________________________________
→  As such, from "checking [our] answer (obtained values)" , we can be reasonably certain that our answer [obtained values] :
_____________________________________________________
→   "x = 4" and "y = 0" ;  or; write as:  [0, 4]  ;  are correct.
_____________________________________________________
Hope this lenghty explanation is of help!  Best wishes!

| x-3 | &lt; x-3<br><br> can someone give a step by step process on how to do this?
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

There are no solutions to the inequality.

Step-by-step explanation:

|x - 3| < x – 3

1. Separate the inequality into two separate ones.

(1) x – 3 < x – 3

(2) x – 3 < -(x – 3)  

2. Solve each equation separately

(a) Equation (1)

\begin{array}{rcl}x - 3 & < & x - 3\\x & < & x\\\end{array}\\\text{This is impossible. No solutions exist.}

(b) Equation (2)

\begin{array}{rcl}x - 3 & < & -(x - 3)\\x - 3 & < & -x + 3\\x &

For example, if x = 0, we get  

|0 - 3| < 0 - 3 or

3 < -3

Find an equation of a line that is parallel to 2x+3y=6 and passes through the point (4, 4)
wariber [46]

Answer:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of a line 2x+3y=6 is -2/3

So line passing through (0,4) has same slope because both are parallel

From slope intercept form we have

Y-y1 =m(x-1)

Y-4= -2/3(x-0)

3Y-12 = -2x

3Y+2x = 12

Which is required equation of a line.

Step-by-step explanation:
