3x+5y=131 6x+2y=140

Mathematics
1 answer:
Marrrta [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

<em>x = 18.25</em>

<em>y = 15.25</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

System of Equations:

Solve:

3x + 5y = 131      [1]

6x + 2y = 140     [2]

Multiplying [1] by -2:

-6x - 10y = -262      [3]

Adding [2] and [3]:

-8y = -122

y = -122/(-8)=15.25

y = 15.25

Substituting in [1]

3x + 5(15.25) = 131

3x + 76.25 = 131

3x = 54.75

x = 54.75/3

x = 18.25

Thus:

x = 18.25

y = 15.25

Need help with this. Write an equation that is parallel to the line whose equation is y = −8x − 7?
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Problem 4: y = -8x+b

Problem 5: C: 3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Problem 4:</u>

The given line is in slope intercept form.

The slope-intercept form is:

y = mx+b

Here the co-efficient of x is the slope of the line. Comparing the given equation with general form

m = -8

Two parallel lines have same slope so the slope of line will be -8.

y=mx+b\\y = -8x+b

b can be any positive or negative integer as we don't know any point on the line parallel to given line.

<u>Problem 5:</u>

Slope = 3

y-intercept = -2

Slope intercept of line is given by:

y = mx+b

here m is slope and b is y-intercept

Putting the values

y = 3x-2

Option C: y=3x-2 is the correct answer

Hence,

Problem 4: y = -8x+b

Problem 5: C: 3x-2

How many kilobytes are in in 1 terabyte if a terabyte is 2^40 and kilobyte is 2^10
Tresset [83]

Answer:

There are 2^{30} kilobytes in a Terabyte

Step-by-step explanation:

If one Terabyte is 2^{40} bytes and one kilobyte is 2^{10} bytes, then, by simple quotient we can find how many kilobytes are in one Terabyte:

\frac{2^{40}}{2^{10}} = 2^{30}

Notice that in the numerator we have 40 factors of "2", while in the denominator we have 10 factors of "2". So we can cancel just 10 common in denominator and numerator and end up with 30 factors of "2" left in the numerator.

On can also use the "properties of exponents" to simplify exponents with the same base.
