Jenny and Mark are reading the same book for their English class.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Harrizon [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

10 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Jenny has read 50 pages and will read 15 each day.

The equation would be: 15x+50

Mark will read 20 pages daily.

The equation would be: 20x

In both equations x represents days.

You set both equal to each other because you want to know when they read the same amount of pages.

15x+50=20x

...you subtract 15x from both sides

50=5x

...and divide by five to get: 10 days

Given: sinθ = -3/5, θ is a third quadrant angle, and tan φ = -7/24, φ is a second-quadrant angle; find cos(θ + φ])
Natali [406]

Answer:

First option: cos(θ + φ) = -117/125

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that cos(θ + φ) = cos(θ)cos(φ) - sin(θ)sin(φ)

If sin(θ) = -3/5 in Quadrant III, then cos(θ) = -4/5.

Since tan(φ) = sin(φ)/cos(φ), then sin(φ) = -7/25 and cos(φ) = 24/25 in Quadrant II.

Therefore:

cos(θ + φ) = cos(θ)cos(φ) - sin(θ)sin(φ)

cos(θ + φ) = (-4/5)(24/25) - (-3/5)(-7/25)

cos(θ + φ) = (-96/125) - (21/125)

cos(θ + φ) = -96/125 - 21/125

cos(θ + φ) = -117/125

In a system of linear equations in two​ variables, if the graphs of the equations are the​ same, the equations are (blank) equat
makkiz [27]

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when a consistent system has infinite solutions, then the graphs of the equations are exactly the same. In other words, these equations are called dependent equations.

All points of dependent equations share the same slope and same y-intercept.

For example,

6x-2y = 18

9x-3y=27

represent the dependent equations.

Writing both equations in slope-intercept form

y=mx+c

where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

Now

6x-2y=18

2y = 6x-18

Divide both sides by 2

y = 3x - 9

Thus, the slope = 3 and y-intercept = b = -9

now

9x-3y=27

3y = 9x-27

Divide both sides by 3

y = 3x - 9

Thus, the slope = 3 and y-intercept = b = -9

Therefore, both equations have the same slope and y-intercept. Their graphs are the same. Hence, they are called dependent equations.

What is the discriminant of 3x^2 - 10 = -2?
Tatiana [17]
The formula for the discriminant is b^2-4ac. The formula you wote is in the form of 
ax^2+c=0, so first, you need to bring that -2 to the left. When you do that, you get (the original equation would be ax^2+bx+c but you have no bx.)

3x^2-8

So, since there's no b, it would be
b^2-4ac
0^2-4(3)(-8
-12 x -8
96

X + 8y = 18 and — 5x + 3y = -4
atroni [7]
X+8y=18
-5x+3y=-4

Multiply the first equation by 5
Add the two equations together

5x+40y=90
-5x+3y=-4
43y=86
Y=2

Plug y into one equation to find x
X+16=18
X=2
