Answer:
(x, y) = (2 2/9, -1 4/9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Equate the values of y and solve for x.
1/4x -2 = -2x +3
(2 1/4)x = 5 . . . . . . . . add 2+2x to both sides
x = 20/9 = 2 2/9 . . . multiply by 4/9
y = -2(2 2/9) +3 = -4 4/9 +3 . . . . substitute for x in the second equation
y = -1 4/9
The solution is x = 2 2/9, y = -1 4/9.
Answer:
10 centimeters.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to remember what's the formula to get the volume of a rectangular solid and a cube.
The volume of the first equals:
Volume = Length x Width x Height
While the volume of the cube is:
where a is the edge.
We are given the measures of the rectangular solid so we can calculate its volume:
cubic cms.
Now, we know that both the volume of the rectangular solid and the cube are the same so we will use this information to calculate the edge of the cube.
![1000=a^3 \\\sqrt[3]{1000} =\sqrt[3]{a^3} \\10=a](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1000%3Da%5E3%20%5C%5C%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B1000%7D%20%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Ba%5E3%7D%20%5C%5C10%3Da)
Thus the length of an edge of the cube is 10 centimeters
Answer:
x=12 y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the scale factor is 1:3, that means that the length and width of Q multiplied by 3 gives the corresponding length and width of P.
Similarly, the length and width of P divided by 3 gives the corresponding length and width of Q.
With this, 9/3=3, which is the value of y.
4*3=12, which is the value of x.
One meaning of a 'linear' equation is that if you draw the graph
of the equation, the graph will be a straight line.
That's an easy way to test the equation . . . find 3 points on the
graph, and see whether they're all in a straight line.
This equation is y = 4 / x .
To find a point on the graph, just pick any number for 'x',
and figure out the value of 'y' that goes with it.
Do that 3 times, and you've got 3 points on the graph.
Here ... I'll do 3 quick points:
Point-A: x = 1 y = 4 / 1 = 4
Point-B: x = 2 y = 4 / 2 = 2
Point-C: x = 4 y = 4 / 4 = 1
Look at this:
Slope of the line from point-A to point-B
= (change in 'y') / (change in 'x') = -2 .
Slope of the line from point-B to point-C
= (change in 'y') / (change in 'x') = -1/2 .
The two pieces of line from A-B and from B-C don't even have
the same slope, so they're not pieces of the same straight line !
So my points A, B, and C are NOT in a straight line.
So the equation is NOT linear.
Try it again with three points of your own.
