2x - 3y = -14 5x + 9y = -2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Firlakuza [10]3 years ago
8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-3y= -14

5x+9y= -2

multiply the first one by 5 and the second one by -2 to get equal and opposite value of x.

➡️when you multiply,it will be

10x-15y= -70

-10x-18y= 4

cancel out each x value,then you get

-15y-18y= -70+4

-33y= -66, divide each side by -33 to get the value of y

⚪️y= 2

➡️substitute the value of y in the equation of (2x-3y= -14) to find the value of x

2x-3(2)= -14

2x-6= -14

2x= -14+6

2x= -8 divide both side by 2

⚪️x= -4

so the answer is (-4,2)

luda_lava [24]
The answer is x= -5 ...explained... -2x + 5 -35x= 190...-37x +5 = 190 ... now subtract 190-5 = 185... divide 185 by - 37 and get -5

Which of the following geometric series converges?
Artist 52 [7]

All three series converge, so the answer is D.

The common ratios for each sequence are (I) -1/9, (II) -1/10, and (III) -1/3.

Consider a geometric sequence with the first term <em>a</em> and common ratio |<em>r</em>| < 1. Then the <em>n</em>-th partial sum (the sum of the first <em>n</em> terms) of the sequence is

S_n=a+ar+ar^2+\cdots+ar^{n-2}+ar^{n-1}

Multiply both sides by <em>r</em> :

rS_n=ar+ar^2+ar^3+\cdots+ar^{n-1}+ar^n

Subtract the latter sum from the first, which eliminates all but the first and last terms:

S_n-rS_n=a-ar^n

Solve for S_n:

(1-r)S_n=a(1-r^n)\implies S_n=\dfrac a{1-r}-\dfrac{ar^n}{1-r}

Then as gets arbitrarily large, the term r^n will converge to 0, leaving us with

S=\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}S_n=\frac a{1-r}

So the given series converge to

(I) -243/(1 + 1/9) = -2187/10

(II) -1.1/(1 + 1/10) = -1

(III) 27/(1 + 1/3) = 18

A realtor is decorating some homes for sale, putting a certain number of decorative pillows on each twin bed and a certain numbe
VikaD [51]

The number of decorative pillows did the realtor arrange on each twin bed and queen bed is 6 and 9 respectively.

<h3>Simultaneous equation</h3>

let

  • Number of decorative pillows for twin bed = x
  • Number of decorative pillows for queen bed = y

x + y = 15

2x + y = 21

From equation (1)

x = 15 - y

  • Substitute x = 15 - y into (2)

2x + y = 21

2(15 - y) + y = 21

30 - 2y + y = 21

- 2y + y = 21 - 30

-y = -9

y = 9

Substitute y = 9 into

x + y = 15

x + 9 = 15

x = 15 - 9

x = 6

Line AC is tangent to circle O at point C<br> What is the measure of OAC?
Nuetrik [128]
AC is a tangent so by definition, it touches the circle at exactly one point (point C) and forms a right angle at the tangency point. So angle ACO is 90 degrees

The remaining angle OAC must be 45 degrees because we need to have all three angles add to 180
45+45+90 = 90+90 = 180

Alternatively you can solve algebraically like so
(angle OAC) + (angle OCA) + (angle COA) = 180
(angle OAC) + (90 degrees) + (45 degrees) = 180
(angle OAC) + 90+45 = 180
(angle OAC) + 135 = 180
(angle OAC) + 135 - 135 = 180 - 135
angle OAC = 45 degrees

Side Note: Triangle OCA is an isosceles right triangle. It is of the template 45-45-90.
