What is one of the solutions to the following equations? y2+x2=53 Y-x=5

Olenka [21]

(1) y² + x² = 53
(2) y - x = 5 ⇒ y = x + 5

subtitute (2) to (1)

(x + 5)² + x² = 53      |use (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²

x² + 2x·5 + 5² + x² = 53

2x² + 10x + 25 = 53     |subtract 53 from both sides

2x² + 10x - 28 =0     |divide both sides by 2

x² + 5x - 14 = 0

x² - 2x+ 7x - 14 = 0

x(x - 2) + 7(x - 2) = 0

(x - 2)(x + 7) = 0 ⇔ x - 2 = 0 or x + 7 = 0 ⇔ x = 2 or x = -7

subtitute the values of y to (2)

for x = 2, y = 5 + 2 = 7
for x = -7, y = 5 + (-7) = 5 - 2 = 3

Answer: x = 2 and y = 7 or x = -7 and y = 3

Your friend, Susannah, manages a sandwich shop. She collects data on the number of turkey sandwiches sold per day for a week. Ex

ExtremeBDS [4]

Susannah's data are illustration of measure of central tendencies

(a) The mean

To calculate the mean, she needs to divide the total number of turkey sandwiches sold, by the number of days.

The total is:

$\mathbf{Total = 73 +88+85+88+99+134+129}$

$\mathbf{Total = 696}$

The number of days is:

$\mathbf{Day = 7}$

So, the mean is:

$\mathbf{Mean =\frac{Total}{Days}}$

$\mathbf{Mean =\frac{696}{7}}$

$\mathbf{Mean =99.4}$

Hence, the mean number of turkey sandwiches sold is 99.4

(b) The median

To calculate the median, she needs to arrange the data in ascending or descending order, then select the middle item.

In ascending order, we have: 73, 85, 88, 88, 99, 129, 134

The middle item is 88

So:

$\mathbf{Median = 88}$

Hence, the median number of turkey sandwiches sold is 88

(c) The mode

This is the data that occurs most.

From the dataset, 88 appears twice (more than others).

So:

$\mathbf{Mode = 88}$

Hence, the mode number of turkey sandwiches sold is 88

(d) The range

This is the difference between the highest and least data

From the dataset,

The highest is 134, and the least is 73

So:

$\mathbf{Range =134 - 73}$

$\mathbf{Range =61}$

Hence, the range of turkey sandwiches sold is 61

The measure that would be most helpful is the median, because it is not affected by outliers.

The distance between Vancouver and Winnipeg is approximately 1850 km in a straight line. The distance on a map is 3.7 cm. Write

yKpoI14uk [10]

3.7cm on the map represents 1850km in reality

3.7cm : 1850km

1cm : 1850/3.7 km

1cm : 500km

Scale statement for map is : 1cm : 500km.

That is 1cm on map represents 500km.

1cm : 500km. Recall 1km = 1000m = 100 000cm

1cm : 500* 100000cm

1cm : 50 000 000cm

1: 50 000 000.

Scale factor is 50 000 000.
