Answer:

16 friends

Step-by-step explanation:

total = 40 balls

remaining = 8 balls

given out = 40 - 8

= 32 balls

each friend = 2 balls

x friends = 32 balls

32 ÷ 2 = 16 friends

Answer:

(arranged from top to bottom)

System #3, where x=6

System #1, where x=4

System #7, where x=3

System #5, where x=2

System #2, where x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

System #1: x=4

$2x+y=10\\x-3y=-2$

To solve, start by isolating your first equation for y.

$2x+y=10\\y=-2x+10$

Now, plug this value of y into your second equation.

$x-3(-2x+10)=-2\\x+6x-30=-2\\7x=28\\x=4$

System #2: x=1

$x+2y=5\\2x+y=4$

Isolate your second equation for y.

$2x+y=4\\y=-2x+4$

Plug this value of y into your first equation.

$x+2(-2x+4)=5\\x+(-4x)+8=5\\x-4x+8=5\\-3x=-3\\x=1$

System #3: x=6

$5x+y=33\\x=18-4y$

Isolate your first equation for y.

$5x+y=33\\y=-5x+33$

Plug this value of y into your second equation.

$x=18-4(-5x+33)\\x=18+20x-132\\-19x=-114\\x=6$

System #4: all real numbers (not included in your diagram)

$y=13-2x\\8x+4y=52$

Plug your value of y into your second equation.

$8x+4(13-2x)=52\\8x+52-8x=52\\0=0$

<em>all real numbers are solutions</em>

System #5: x=2

$x+3y=5\\6x-y=11$

Isolate your second equation for y.

$6x-y=11\\-y=-6x+11\\y=6x-11$

Plug in your value of y to your first equation.

$x+3(6x-11)=5\\x+18x-33=5\\19x=38\\x=2$

System #6: no solution (not included in your diagram)

$2x+y=10\\-6x-3y=-2$

Isolate your first equation for y.

$2x+y=10\\y=-2x+10$

Plug your value of y into your second equation.

$-6x-3(-2x+10)=-2\\-6x+6x-30=-2\\-30=-2$

<em>no solution</em>

System #7: x=3

$y=10+x\\2x+3y=45$

Plug your value of y into your second equation.

$2x+3(10+x)=45\\2x+30+3x=45\\5x=15\\x=3$

Solve each equation by factoring.

nevsk [136]

Answer:

k=1/3; k=-2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

$15k^2+k-4=-2\\15k^2+k-2=0\\(3k-1)(5k+2)=0\\3k-1=0; 5k+2=0\\k=1/3; k=-2/5$

A village wishes to measure the quantity of water that is piped to a factory during a typical morning. A gauge on the water line

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

570 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of water is the product of flow rate of water and the time taken. We are to get the volume of water used between 6 am and 9 am, that is for 3 hours (9 - 6).

We are given the flow rate at 6 am and the flow rate at 9 am, but this flow rate changes between 6 am and 9 am. To get the estimate of the water used, Let us assume that it flows at the same flow rate as it was at 6 am throughout, hence:

$V_L= 100 m^3/h * 3h=300\ m^3$

Also, let us assume that it flows at the same flow rate as it was at 9 am throughout, hence:

$V_R= 280 m^3/h * 3h=840\ m^3$

To get the best estimate of the total volume, let us find the average of the two values, hence:

$Volume=\frac{V_L+V_R}{2} =\frac{300+840}{2}=570\ m^3$
