A bottle full of liquid has a total mass of 1.27kg.

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let “x” be the weight of the bottle and “y” is weight of honey.

We know the total weight of bottle full of honey is 1000 g.

So Equation 1 is x + y = 1000 g

And with half of the honey, we know the total weight is 600g.

Equation 2: x + (y/2) = 600 g

y/2=600 - x

y= 2 (600 - x)

y= 1200 - 2x

We can replace “y” with 1200 - 2x in Equation 1:

x + 1200 - 2x = 1000

x = 200 g

Weight of the bottle is 200 g.

Directions: State whether or not (3, -2) is a solution to the following systems.

andrew11 [14]

(3, -2) is a solution to the system of equations x - 2y = 7 and 2x + 3y = 0, (3, -2) is not a solution to the system of equations -x - y = -5 and 3x - 4y = 17 and (3, -2) is not a solution to the system of equations x + y = 1 and x - y = 6

<h3>How to determine the whether or not (3, -2) is a solution to the following systems?</h3>

The systems of equations are given as:

1. x - 2y = 7 and 2x + 3y = 0

2. -x - y = -5 and 3x - 4y = 17

3. x + y = 1 and x - y = 6

Next, we substitute (3, -2) for (x, y) in the system of equations.

So, we have:

<u>1. x - 2y = 7 and 2x + 3y = 0</u>

3 - 2 * -2 = 7 and 2 * 3 + 3 * -2 = 0

Evaluate

7 = 7 and 0 = 0

The above equation is true

Hence, (3, -2) is a solution to the system of equations x - 2y = 7 and 2x + 3y = 0

<u>2.- x - y = -5 and 3x - 4y = 17</u>

-3 + 2 = -5 and 3 * 3 + 4 * 2 = 17

Evaluate

- 1 = - 5 and 1 7 = 1 7

The above equation is false

Hence, (3, -2) is not a solution to the system of equations -x - y = -5 and 3x - 4y = 17

<u>3. x + y = 1 and x - y = 6</u>

3 - 2 = 1 and 3 + 2 = 6

Evaluate

1 = 1 and 5 = 6

The above equation is false

Hence, (3, -2) is not a solution to the system of equations x + y = 1 and x - y = 6

What is the surface area of the rectangular pyramid shown? 59.5 cm2 63 cm2 75.5 cm2 99 cm2

arsen [322]

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question figure of pyramid is attached below the question .

Surface area of the rectangular pyramid :

Area of the Base = Length × Width

= 10 × 2 = 20 cm²

Area of Lateral #1 = $\frac{1}{2}(P)(L)$

= $\frac{1}{2}(10\times6.3)$

= 31.5 cm²

Area of Lateral #2 = $\frac{1}{2}(8\times 2)$

= $\frac{16}{2}$

= 8 cm²

Surface area of the pyramid = 20 + 2(31.5) + 2(8)

= 20 + 63 + 16

= 99 cm²

Surface area of the pyramid is 99 cm²

A) Garage A = 3x
Garage B = 2x + 2
b) 2x + 2 = 3x
x = 2
c) the solution, 2, means the number of hour which both garages would have the equal amount of cost. In this case, in 2 hours, they would be equal in cost.
