Answer:
(3, - 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x - 3y = 9 → (1)
x + 2y = 1 → (2)
Rearrange (2) expressing x in terms of y by subtracting 2y from both sides
x = 1 - 2y → (3)
Substitute x = 1 - 2y into (1)
2(1 - 2y) - 3y = 9
2 - 4y - 3y = 9
- 7y + 2 = 9 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
- 7y = 7 ( divide both sides by - 7 )
y = - 1
Substitute y = - 1 into (3) for corresponding value of x
x = 1 - 2(- 1) = 1 + 2 = 3
solution is (3, - 1 )
Answer:
27/6, 4 3/6, or simplified version 4 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Always convert the mixed numbers into an improper fraction before you solve, this makes it easier to solve.
2 4/6 = 16/6
1 5/6 = 11/6
3 4/6 = 22/6
Now we solve. Remember, you do NOT add the denominator, leave it as 6 not 12. You only add the numerator.
16/6 + 11/6 = 27/6, 4 3/6 or simplified as 4 1/2
22/6 + 5/6 = The same as above.
Answer:
The area of the floor space is equal to 5.83 sq yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Each row requires a section of floor that is 1 ¾ yards by 3 ⅓ yards.
We need to find how many square yards of floor space are taken up by one row of cheerleaders.
We know that, the area of a rectangle is given by :
A = lb
So,
So, the area of the floor space is equal to 5.83 sq yards.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
a) average rate = (total distance)/(total time)
b) Rave = 2·R1·R2/(R1 +R2)
c) cheetah's average rate ≈ 50.91 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Let AB represent the distance from A to B. Let t1 and t2 represent the travel times (in hours) on leg1 and leg2 of the trip, respectively. Then the distances traveled are...
First leg distance: AB = 70·t1 ⇒ t1 = AB/70
Second leg distance: AB = 40·t2 ⇒ t2 = AB/40
The average rate is the ratio of total distance to total time:
average rate = (AB +AB)/(t1 +t2)
average rate = 2AB/(AB/70 +AB/40) = 2/(1/70 +1/40) = 2(40)(70)/(70+40)
average rate = 560/11 = 50 10/11 . . . mph
__
No equations are given, so we cannot compare what we wrote with the given equations. In each step of the solution, we have used the rules of algebra and equality.
b) For two rates over the same distance (as above), the average is their harmonic mean:
average rate = 2r1·r2/(r1+r2)
__
c) The cheetah's average rate was 50 10/11 mph ≈ 50.91 mph.
Answer:
No, none of the number need to be 48 for the mean to be 48. To get a mean, you add up all the number and divide it by the amount of numbers.
Example:
the mean of 10, 79, 42, 88, 19, and 50 is 48, but the actual number 48 was not part of the set.
10 + 79 + 42 + 88 + 19 + 50 = 288
288 ÷ 6 = 48
