A group of friends went out for dinner and decided to split the cost of the $196 bill equally. If each person contributed $30, t

hey would not have enough to leave a 15% tip. But if each person contributed $33, they would cover the bill and a 15% tip and have $5.60 left over. How many friends went out to dinner? 1 point

Nate borrowed $62,000 at 9.4% interest per year if he owed a total of $910.90 in when he repaid the loan how many days do they k

OverLord2011 [107]

The formula for simple annual interest is:

I = Prt

where,

I = Interest accumulated = $910.90
P = Principal Amount = $62000
r = Interest rate = 9.4% = 0.094
t = time in years

Using the values in above equation, we get:

910.90 = 62000 x 0.094 x t

⇒ t = 910.90/(62000 x 0.094) = 0.156

This is the time in years. Since there are 365 days in a year, the time in days will be:

t = 0.156 x 365 = 57 (rounded to nearest day)

This means, Nate kept the borrowed money for 57 days

1-4y^2 = 0<br> Solve the equation

Romashka [77]

Answer: y = 1/2 or y = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First move the 1 to the side with the 0

-4y^2 = -1 // -1 because when you move a number to the other side of the equation you have to multiply -1

Then divide by -4 on each side

y^2 = 1/4

square root each side

|y| = 1/2 // sq rt y^2 becomes an absolute value because when you square root a square it automatically becomes an absolute value

so the answer would be y = 1/2 or -1/2

to check just put it into the equation as y. Both work.

←<br><br> How many solutions does this linear system have<br> y =<br> x+2<br> 6x - 4y = -10

defon

Answer:

This linear system has one solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

First equation: y = x + 2

Second equation: 6x - 4y = -10

Let's change the second equation in slope-intercept form y = mx + b.

<u>Slope-intercept form</u>

y = mx + b

m ... slope

b ... y-intercept

$6x - 4y = -10$

$6x + 10 = 4y$

$\frac{6}{4}x + \frac{10}{4} = y$

$\frac{3}{2}x + \frac{5}{2} = y$

If two lines have the <em>same slope </em>but <em>different y-intercept</em>, they are parallel - <u>system has no solutions</u>.

If two lines have the <em>same slope</em> and the <em>same y-intercept</em>, they are the same line and are intersecting in infinite many points - <u>system has infinite many solutions</u>.

If two lines have <em>different slopes</em> then they intersect in one point - <u>system has one solution</u>.

We see that lines have different slopes. First line has slope 1 and the other line has slope $\frac{3}{2}$ . So the system has one solution.

You can also check this by solving the system.

Substitute y in second equation with y from first.

6x - 4y = -10

6x - 4(x + 2) = -10

Solve for x.

6x - 4x - 8 = -10

2x = -2

x = -1

y = x + 2

y = -1 + 2

y = 1

The lines intersect in point (-1, 1). <-- one solution

Dada la ecuacion 25x2 + 4y2 = 100, determina las coordenadas de los vertices, focos, las longitudes de los respectivos ejes mayo

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

The given equation is

$25x^{2} +4y^{2}=100$

Which represents an elipse.

To find its elements, we need to divide the equation by 100

$\frac{25x^{2} +4y^{2} }{100} =\frac{100}{100} \\\frac{x^{2} }{4} +\frac{y^{2} }{25} =1$

Where $a^{2} =25$ and $b^{2}=4$ . Remember that the greatest denominator is $a$ , and the least is $b$ . So, we extract the square root on each equation.

$a=5$ and $b=2$ .

In a elipse, we have a major axis and a minor axis. In this case, the major axis is vertical and the minor axis is horizontal, that means this is a vertical elipse.

The length of the major axis is $2a=2(5)=10$ .

The length of the minor axis is $2b=2(2)=4$ .

The vertices are $(0,5);(0,-5)$ and $(2,0);(-2,0)$ .

Now, the main parameters of an elipse are related by

$a^{2}=b^{2} +c^{2}$ , which we are gonna use to find $c$ , the parameter of the focus.

$c=\sqrt{a^{2}-b^{2} }=\sqrt{25-4}=\sqrt{21}$

So, the coordinates of each focus are $(0,\sqrt{21})$ and $(0,-\sqrt{21})$

The eccentricity of a elipse is defined

$e=\frac{c}{a}=\frac{\sqrt{21} }{5} \approx 0.92$

The latus rectum is defined

$L=\frac{2b^{2} }{a}=\frac{2(4)}{5} =\frac{8}{5} \approx 1.6$

Finally, the graph of the elipse is attached.

Answer:

You need 10 of those numbers to be whole numbers, decimals, or fractions (THESE ARE RATIONAL)

You need the other 10 of those numbers to radicals, or numbers similar to pi (THESE ARE IRRATIONAL)
