Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x + 8

y = x - 1

solve by substitution

so y = -2x + 8......so sub -2x + 8 in for y back in the OTHER equation

-2x + 8 = x - 1 ........add 2x to both sides

-2x + 2x + 8 = x + 2x - 1.....combine like terms

8 = 3x - 1......add 1 to both sides

8 + 1 = 3x- 1 + 1....combine like terms

9 = 3x .....now divide both sides by 3

9/3 = (3/3)x.....simplify

3 = 1x....which is the same as 3 = x

so now that we know x is 3, sub that back into either of ur original equations to find y

y = x - 1

y = 3 - 1

y = 2

lets check it.....(3,2)

y = -2x + 8                          y = x - 1

2 = -2(3) + 8                       2 = 3 - 1

2 = -6 + 8                          2 = 2 (correct)

2 = 2 (correct)

so ur solution is (3,2) <=====

Guests at an amusement park must be at least 54 inches tall to be able to ride the roller coaster. Which graph represents the se
Gre4nikov [31]

Given:

Guests at an amusement park must be at least 54 inches tall to be able to ride the roller coaster.

To find:

The graph that represents the set of heights that satisfy this requirement.

Solution:

Let x be the height required for the ride.

Guests must be at least 54 inches tall to be able to ride the roller coaster. It means required height is greater than or equal to 54.

x\geq 54

So, 54 and all values above 54 are in the solution set.

Since, 54 is included in the solution set, therefore there is a closed circle at 54. All values above 54 are in the solution set, so everything to the right of the circle is shaded.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Richard’s checking account balance was $57.34 at the beginning of the week. During the week, he recorded the transactions below.
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

US$ 132.45

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for the missing table.

Given:

Richard’s checking account balance at the beginning of the week = $57.34

<u>Richard’s account balance at the end of the week from the given table:</u>

Deposits of the week = US$ 163.75

Expenses of the week = Groceries + Credit card bill + Gas

Expenses of the week = 25.37 + 50 + 13.27

Expenses of the week = US$ 88.64

Richard’s account balance at the end of the week = Richard’s checking account balance at the beginning of the week + Deposits of the week - Expenses of the week

Replacing with the real values:

Richard’s account balance at the end of the week = 57.34 + 163.75 - 88.64

                                                                                    =US$ 132.4

Suppose xy=−4 and dy/dt=−3. Find dx/dt when x=−1.
user100 [1]
When x=-1: \quad (-1)y=-4\qquad\to\qquad y=4\)

Ok that gives us a little more information.
If we implicitly differentiate with respect to t, from the very start, then we can apply our product rule, ya?

x'y+xy'=0

The right side is zero, derivative of a constant is zero.
Where x' is dx/dt and y' is dy/dt.

From here, plug in all the stuff you know:
y' = -3
x = -1
y = 4

and solve for x'.

Hope that helps!
