Answer:

The variable Y represents the number of meters of string in the third yoyo

Step-by-step explanation:

In this equation y stands for the unknown variable. The equation tell you that hope made 3 different yo-yos so the number of yo-yos hope made isn't unknown, meaning, it cant be the first answer. The problem also tells you that hope used a total of 4 meters of string which means that the total number of string used isn't the unknown variable. The number of meters of string in the third yo-yo is the only number that isn't. This makes the number of sting used in the third yo-yo the unknown variable, making it y.

Solve x^2+2x+7=0 using the quadratic formula.

Aneli [31]

Answer:

$x=-1\pm \sqrt{6}i$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$x=\frac{-(2)\pm\sqrt{2^2-4(1)(7)}}{2(1)}$

$x=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt{4-28}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt{-24}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt{-1*24}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt{-1}\sqrt{24}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-2\pm i\sqrt{4*6}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-2\pm i\sqrt{4}\sqrt{6}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-2\pm2i\sqrt{6}}{2}$

$x=-1\pm \sqrt{6}i$

I need to show work and Idk how for 2 or 3. The -5,-2 and 8,3 is the answers just need work shown thanks

prisoha [69]

#2
2x - 4y = -2
2x + 3y = -16
------------------subtract
-7y = 14
y = 14/-7
y = -2

2x - 4y = -2
2x - 4(-2) = -2
2x + 8 = -2
2x = -2 -8
2x = -10
x = -10/2
x = -5
answer x = -2 and y = -5

check:

2(-5)- 4(-2) = -2
-10 +8 = -2
-2 = -2.....true

2x + 3y = -16
2(-5)+3(-2) = -16
-10 + (-6) = -16
-16 = -16...true

Explain why in a drawer containing only two different colors of socks one must draw only three socks to find a matching pair

Greeley [361]

As pair means that 2 socks with the same color need to be drawn for it to be identified as a pair.
However there is a probability that if u only pick 2 socks, then they could kid each have different COLORS.
By picking 3 socks (bearing in mind there are only 2 types of color) it’s guaranteed that two socks will have the same color.

When fritz drives to work his trip takes 40 minutes, but when he takes the train it takes 30 minutes. find the distance fritz t

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Distance = rate*time

convert minutes to hour first because the question talking about 15 mile per hour
40 mins = 40/60 2/3 hrs
30 mins = 30/60 = 1/2hrs

Assume that s be the speed when Fritz driving, so
s + 15 will be the speed of the train.

We know the time we know the speed, Next
distance that Fritz drive = $\frac{2}{3}s$
distance the train travel = $\frac{1}{2}(s+15)$

The question: Assume that the train travels the same distance as the car
==> $\frac{2}{3}s = \frac{1}{2}(s+15)$
==> $\frac{2}{3}s = \frac{1}{2}s + \frac{15}{2}$
==> $\frac{2}{3}s - \frac{1}{2}s = \frac{15}{2}$
==> $\frac{1}{6}s = \frac{15}{2}$
==> $\frac{6}{1} * \frac{1}{6}s = \frac{15}{2} * \frac{6}{1}$
==> $s = 45$
Now we know that Fritz drive at 45 mph,
distance = $\frac{2}{3} * 45 = 30 miles$
