What is the solution to the system of equations below?

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equations

$y=-6x-10$

$y=-3x-21$

solving the system of the equations

Arrange the equation variables for elimination

$\begin{bmatrix}y+6x=-10\\ y+3x=-21\end{bmatrix}$

$y+3x=-21$

$-$

$\underline{y+6x=-10}$

$-3x=-11$

$\begin{bmatrix}y+6x=-10\\ -3x=-11\end{bmatrix}$

solve

$-3x=-11$

Divide both sides by -3

$\frac{-3x}{-3}=\frac{-11}{-3}$

$x=\frac{11}{3}$

$\mathrm{For\:}y+6x=-10\mathrm{\:plug\:in\:}x=\frac{11}{3}$

$y+6\cdot \frac{11}{3}=-10$

$y=-32$

Therefore, the solutions to the system of the equations are:

$y=-32,\:x=\frac{11}{3}$

But, it seems none of the options is true.

When doctors prescribe medicine, they must consider how the drug’s effectiveness declines as time passes. If each hour a drug is

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

The total time for the initial dose of 500 mg to reach a level of 150 mg is approximately 11 hours and 27 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial dose = 500 mg

Let's calculate the effectiveness of the drug hour by hour, this way:

After 1 hour: 90% of 500 = 450 mg

After 2 hours: 90% of 450 = 405 mg

After 3 hours: 90% of 405 = 364.5 mg

After 4 hours: 90% of 364.5 = 328.05 mg

After 5 hours: 90% of 328.05 = 295.25 mg

After 6 hours: 90% of 295.25 = 265.73 mg

After 7 hours: 90% of 265.73 = 239.16 mg

After 8 hours: 90% of 239.16 = 215.24 mg

After 9 hours: 90% of 215.24 = 193.72 mg

After 10 hours: 90% of 193.72 = 174.35 mg

After 11 hours: 90% of 174.35 = 156.92 mg

After 12 hours: 90% of 156.92 = 141.23 mg

Difference between 11 and 12 hours: 156.92 - 141.23 = 15.7 mg

Difference per minute between 11 and 12 hours: 15.7/60 = 0.262 mg

Time to reach a level of 150 mg in minutes after 11 hours = (156.92-150)/0.262

Time to reach a level of 150 mg in minutes after 11 hours = 26.4

The total time for the initial dose of 500 mg to reach a level of 150 mg is approximately 11 hours and 27 minutes

A student stands 20 m away from the foot

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Height of tree is $\approx$ 15 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that student is 20 m away from the foot of tree.

and table is 1.5 m above the ground.

The angle of elevation is: 34°28'

Please refer to the attached image. The given situation can be mapped to a right angled triangle as shown in the image.

AB = CP = 20 m

CA = PB = 1.5 m

$\angle C$ = 34°28' = 34.46°

To find TB = ?

we can use trigonometric function tangent to find TP in right angled $\triangle TPC$

$tan \theta = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}\\tan C= \dfrac{PT}{PC}\\\Rightarrow tan 34.46^\circ = \dfrac{PT}{20}\\\Rightarrow PT = 20 \times 0.686 \\\Rightarrow PT = 13.72\ m$

Now, adding PB to TP will give us the height of tree, TB

Now, height of tree TB = TP + PB

TB = 13.72 + 1.5 = 15.22 $\approx$ 15 m
