4x – 3y=8<br> 2. 5x – 2y = -11

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

$x = -7$

$y = - 12$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system is:

4x-3y=8

5x-2y=-11

We make x the subject in the top equation to get:

$x = \frac{3}{4}y + 2$

Plug this expression for x in the bottom equation to get

$5( \frac{3}{4}y + 2) - 2y= - 11$

We expand to obtain

$\frac{15}{4} y + 10 - 2y = - 11$

Multiply through by 4

$15y + 40 - 8y = - 44$

Group similar terms

$15y - 8y = - 44 - 40$

$7y = - 84$

$y = - \frac{84}{7} =-12$

This means

$x = -12\times \frac{3}{4} + 2$

$x = - 7$

Estimate the question<br><br> 19.9×5.8≈

ankoles [38]

Hello :D

To work this out you need to round the numbers to a whole number.

19.9 = 20

5.8 = 6

20 x 6 ≈ 120

I hope this helps :)

Aisha ate 1/4 of the carrots in the bag. Enrique ate 3/12 of the carrots in the bag. Compare the amounts of carrots they each at

Neko [114]

The amount of carrots they each ate are the same because 12 is a multiple of 4. There are 3 4’s in one 12. If you multiply 1/4 times 3 you will get 3/12 because 1 x 3 = 3. And 4 x 3 = 12

The maximum value of the function: f(x)= -5 x ^2 +30x-200 is?

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

$\displaystyle - 155$

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given a quadratic function

$\displaystyle f(x) = - 5 {x}^{2} + 30x - 200$

we want to figure out the minimum value of the function

to do so we need to figure out the minimum value of x in the case we can consider the following formula:

$\displaystyle x _{ \rm min} = \frac{ - b}{2a}$

the given function is in the standard form i.e

$\displaystyle f(x) = a {x}^{2} + bx + c$

so we acquire:

b=30
a=-5

thus substitute:

$\displaystyle x _{ \rm min} = \frac{ - 30}{2. - 5}$

simplify multiplication:

$\displaystyle x _{ \rm min} = \frac{ - 30}{ - 10}$

simply division:

$\displaystyle x _{ \rm min} = 3$

plug in the value of minimum x to the given function:

$\displaystyle f (3)= - 5 {(3)}^{2} + 30.3 - 200$

simplify square:

$\displaystyle f (3)= - 5 {(9)}^{} + 30.3 - 200$

simplify multiplication:

$\displaystyle f (3)= - 45 + 90- 200$

simplify:

$\displaystyle f (3)= - 155$

hence,

the minimum value of the function is -155
