X^2+15^2=25^2
X^2+225=625
Isolate X
X^2=400
Take the square root on both sides
X=positive and negative 20 but in this case the negative is thrown out because you can't have a negative side
Answer: 20
Hailey's mixing two different coffee blends. Represent them by x and y (in pounds). Then x + y = 5 lb, and x = 5 - y.How much puree Sum. beans are we talking about here?
0.20x +0.80y = 0.60(5 lb) Mult all 3 terms by 100 to get rid of factions:
20x + 80 y = 300. Substitute 5-y for x:
20(5-y) + 80y = 300 => 100-20y + 80y = 300 => 60y = 200, so y = 20/6 or 10/3 lb den x = 5-10/3, or x =5/3 lb
Use 5/3 lb of the first blend and 10/3 lb of the second blend to come up with 5 lb of a 60% blend.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to get one positive 7y so,
4x-7y=5
9x-7y=-15
multiply anyone of the equation by -1. I choose the first one so,
4x+7y=-5
9x-7y=-15
we can now cancel the y's so the equation will be left with
-4x=-5
9x=-15
add the equations
5x=-20
divide by 5 n u get
x=-4
now plug in the x value in any one of the
equations
I choose the first one so,
4(-4)-7y=5
-16-7y=5
add 16 to both sides
-7y=21
divide by -7
y=-3.
finally check.
Answer:
y = (5/4)2^x
Step-by-step explanation:
The function value increases by a factor of 40/10 = 4 when x increases by 2. The function can be written as ...
y = (reference value)·(growth factor)^((x -reference)/(change in x for growth factor))
y = 10·4^((x-3)/2) . . . . . . using point (3, 10) as a reference
This can be simplified to ...
y = 10·2^(x -3) = 10/8·2^x
y = (5/4)2^x
Step-by-step explanation:
4 and 5 is one 20/25
