Otrada [13]3 years ago

Answer:

The equations have one solution at (5, -5).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a system of equations:

\displaystyle{\left \{ {{-2x+5y=-35} \atop {7x+2y=25}} \right.}

This system of equations can be solved in three different ways:

  1. Graphing the equations (method used)
  2. Substituting values into the equations
  3. Eliminating variables from the equations

<u>Graphing the Equations</u>

We need to solve each equation and place it in slope-intercept form first. Slope-intercept form is \text{y = mx + b}.

Equation 1 is -2x+5y = -35. We need to isolate y.

\displaystyle{-2x + 5y = -35}\\\\5y = 2x - 35\\\\\frac{5y}{5} = \frac{2x - 35}{5}\\\\y = \frac{2}{5}x - 7

Equation 1 is now y=\frac{2}{5}x-7.

Equation 2 also needs y to be isolated.

\displaystyle{7x+2y=25}\\\\2y=-7x+25\\\\\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{-7x+25}{2}\\\\y = -\frac{7}{2}x + \frac{25}{2}

Equation 2 is now y=-\frac{7}{2}x+\frac{25}{2}.

Now, we can graph both of these using a data table and plotting points on the graph. If the two lines intersect at a point, this is a solution for the system of equations.

The table below has unsolved y-values - we need to insert the value of x and solve for y and input these values in the table.

\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2} \textbf{x} & \textbf{y} \\ \cline{1-2} 0 & a \\ \cline{1-2} 1 & b \\ \cline{1-2} 2 & c \\ \cline{1-2} 3 & d \\ \cline{1-2} 4 & e \\ \cline{1-2} 5 & f \\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 0,}

\displaystyle{y = \frac{2}{5}(0) - 7}\\\\y = 0 - 7\\\\y = -7

\bullet \ \text{For x = 1,}

\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(1)-7}\\\\y=\frac{2}{5}-7\\\\y = -\frac{33}{5}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 2,}

\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(2)-7}\\\\y = \frac{4}{5}-7\\\\y = -\frac{31}{5}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 3,}

\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(3)-7}\\\\y= \frac{6}{5}-7\\\\y=-\frac{29}{5}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 4,}

\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(4)-7}\\\\y = \frac{8}{5}-7\\\\y=-\frac{27}{5}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 5,}

\displaystyle{y=\frac{2}{5}(5)-7}\\\\y=2-7\\\\y=-5

Now, we can place these values in our table.

\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2} \textbf{x} & \textbf{y} \\ \cline{1-2} 0 & -7 \\ \cline{1-2} 1 & -33/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 2 & -31/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 3 & -29/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 4 & -27/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 5 & -5 \\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}

As we can see in our table, the rate of decrease is -\frac{2}{5}. In case we need to determine more values, we can easily either replace x with a new value in the equation or just subtract -\frac{2}{5} from the previous value.

For Equation 2, we need to use the same process. Equation 2 has been resolved to be y=-\frac{7}{2}x+\frac{25}{2}. Therefore, we just use the same process as before to solve for the values.

\bullet \ \text{For x = 0,}

\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(0)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = 0 + \frac{25}{2}\\\\y = \frac{25}{2}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 1,}

\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(1)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = -\frac{7}{2} + \frac{25}{2}\\\\y = 9

\bullet \ \text{For x = 2,}

\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(2)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = -7+\frac{25}{2}\\\\y = \frac{11}{2}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 3,}

\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(3)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = -\frac{21}{2}+\frac{25}{2}\\\\y = 2

\bullet \ \text{For x = 4,}

\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(4)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y=-14+\frac{25}{2}\\\\y = -\frac{3}{2}

\bullet \ \text{For x = 5,}

\displaystyle{y=-\frac{7}{2}(5)+\frac{25}{2}}\\\\y = -\frac{35}{2}+\frac{25}{2}\\\\y = -5

And now, we place these values into the table.

\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2} \textbf{x} & \textbf{y} \\ \cline{1-2} 0 & 25/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 1 & 9 \\ \cline{1-2} 2 & 11/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 3 & 2 \\ \cline{1-2} 4 & -3/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 5 & -5 \\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}

When we compare our two tables, we can see that we have one similarity - the points are the same at x = 5.

Equation 1                  Equation 2

\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2} \textbf{x} & \textbf{y} \\ \cline{1-2} 0 & -7 \\ \cline{1-2} 1 & -33/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 2 & -31/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 3 & -29/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 4 & -27/5 \\ \cline{1-2} 5 & -5 \\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}                 \begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2} \textbf{x} & \textbf{y} \\ \cline{1-2} 0 & 25/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 1 & 9 \\ \cline{1-2} 2 & 11/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 3 & 2 \\ \cline{1-2} 4 & -3/2 \\ \cline{1-2} 5 & -5 \\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}

Therefore, using this data, we have one solution at (5, -5).

julsineya [31]

Answer:

The amount of acid in third container is =42%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given , one container is filled with a mixture that is 30% acid a second container filled with a mixture that is 50% acid and the second container 50% larger than the first .

Let, the volume of first container is = x

Then , the volume of second container = (x+ x of 50%)

                                                                 = x + 0.5 x

                                                                 = 1.5 x

Therefore the amount of acid in first container =x \times \frac{30}{100} = 0.3 x

The amount of acid in second container =1.5x \times \frac{50}{100}  = 0.75x

Total amount of acid= 0.3x + 0.75x = 1.05 x

Total amount  of solution = x+1.5x = 2.5x

The amount of acid in third container is = \frac{1.05x}{2.5x} \times 100% %

                                                                     = 42%

Consider the following three equations:
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

1.

y = 20(11) + 300 = 520

y = 5(11)(11) = 605    

y = 10(1.4)^11 = 404.96

hence the quadratic formula - y = 5x^2 has the largest y-value

2.

y = 20 (14) + 300 = 580

y = 5 (14) (14) = 980

y = 10(1.4)^ 14 = 1111.20   >    this is greater than both equations above

14 is the smallest value of x for which the value of the exponential equation is greater than the values of both the linear and quadratic functions

A breakfast cereal producer makes its most popular product by combining just raisins and flakes in each box of cereal. The amoun
yarga [219]

Using the normal distribution, it is found that there is a 0.9192 = 91.92% probability that the total amount of product is less than 575 g.

In a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

  • It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  
  • After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.
  • When two normal variables are added, the mean is the sum of the means while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

In this problem, the product is composed by flakes and raisins, and we have that:

\mu_F = 370, \sigma_F = 24, \mu_R = 170, \sigma_R = 7

Hence, the distribution for the total amount of product has <u>mean and standard deviation</u> given by:

\mu = \mu_F + \mu_R = 370 + 170 = 540

\sigma = \sqrt{\sigma_F^2 + \sigma_R^2} = \sqrt{24^2 + 7^2} = 25

The probability that the total amount of product is less than 575 g is the <u>p-value of Z when X = 575</u>, hence:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{575 - 540}{25}

Z = 1.4

Z = 1.4 has a p-value of 0.9192.

0.9192 = 91.92% probability that the total amount of product is less than 575 g.

A ladder is leaning against a building and makes a 28 degree angle with the ground. the top of the ladder reaches up the buildin
Digiron [165]

The length of the ladder is 75ft.

<h3>What is hypotenuse?</h3>

The longest side, or hypotenuse, of a right-angled triangle is the side that faces away from the right angle. The Pythagorean theorem asserts that the hypotenuse's square length equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides, and this can be used to determine the hypotenuse's length.

<h3>According to the information:</h3>

The ladder makes an angle of 28° with the ground and the top of the ladder reaches 35ft

Therefore, we have:

Sineα = opposite/hypotenuse

Where:

Opposite = 35

Hypotenuse = Length

α = 28°

substitute values and solve for the length, as following:

Sine(28) = 35/Length

Length = 35/Sine(28)

Length = 75ft

Therefore,

The length of the ladder is 75 ft.
