Answer:

2x+3y=170.......1

1x+5y=225.......2

multiplying equation 2 by 2 and subtracting eq.1 &2

2x+3y-2x-10x=170-225

-7x=-55

x=55/7

55/7+5y=225

5y=225-55/7

y=1520/(7×5)=304/7

Let g(x) = 2x and h(x)= x^2 -4. find (g o h)(0)
finlep [7]
The answer is -8

====================================================

Explanation:

There are two ways to get this answer

Method 1 will have us plug x = 0 into h(x) to get
h(x) = x^2 - 4
h(0) = 0^2 - 4
h(0) = 0 - 4
h(0) = -4
Then this output is plugged into g(x) to get
g(x) = 2x
g(-4) = 2*(-4)
g(-4) = -8 which is the answer
This works because (g o h)(0) is the same as g(h(0)). Note how h(0) is replaced with -4
So effectively g(h(0)) = -8 which is the same as (g o h)(0) = -8

-----------------------

The second method involves a bit algebra first
Start with the outer function g(x). Then replace every x with h(x). On the right side, we will replace h(x) with x^2-4 because h(x) = x^2-4

g(x) = 2x
g(x) = 2( x )
g(h(x)) = 2( h(x) ) ... replace every x with h(x)
g(h(x)) = 2( x^2-4 ) ... replace h(x) on the right side with x^2-4
g(h(x)) = 2x^2-8
(g o h)(x) = 2x^2-8

Now plug in x = 0
(g o h)(x) = 2x^2-8
(g o h)(0) = 2(0)^2-8
(g o h)(0) = 2(0)-8
(g o h)(0) = 0-8
(g o h)(0) = -8

Regardless of which method you use, the answer is -8

A train leaves at 15.42 and arrives at its destination at 16.56.
Tasya [4]

Answer:

90/1.5=60 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume that the train is traveling at constant speed.

Between 12:45 pm and 2:15 pm the train has traveled 180-90=90 miles. So 90 miles in 1.5 hours which means that its speed is 90/1.5=60 mph

Solve the problem. The formula d = rt gives the distance traveled in time t at rate r. If a bicyclist rides for 2.3 hours and tr
Contact [7]

Answer:

17.83

Step-by-step explanation:

d = r*t

d = 41 miles

t = 2.3 hours

r = ??

d = rt            Substitute

41 = r * 2.3   Divide by 2.3

41 / 2.3 = r   Switch sides

r = 41/2.3

r = 17.83 mph  Answer

Which postulate or theorem could be used to prove triangleLMQ is congruent to triangleLNP
Sliva [168]

The answer to this query is AA similarity postulate. <span>

<span>Because the triangles given are only similar in angle but dissimilar in sides which makes it incongruent with respect to the sides, AA similarity postulate is the exact answer. 

SAS ASA are not possible answers. </span></span>
