First of all, we can solve this by elimination (adding the 2 equations and eliminating 1 variable).
3x+10y=-47
5x+7y=40
It looks like we can eliminate the x by making one 15x, and the other -15x (15 is the least common multiple [LCM] of 3 and 5).
5 (3x+10y=-47) --> 15x+50y=-235
-3 (5x+7y=40) --> -15x-21y=-120
15x-15x = 0, 50y-21y = 29y, -235-120 = -355
0 + 29y = -355
29y/29 = -355/29
y = 12.24
then plugged that into 3x+10y=-47
3x+122.4=-47
3x+122.4-122.4=-47-122.4
3x = -169.4
x = 56.47
Something is wrong... are you sure the 2nd equation wasn't equal to NEGATIVE 40??
Or the 1st one equal to POSITIVE 40??

Let F(x,y)=1+sqrt(4-y^2). . (a) Evaluate F(3,1). (b) Find and sketch the domain of F. (c) Find the range of F
charle [14.2K]
The goal of this function is to get  a positive value under the square root sign so that the value would not be invalid. Evaluating F(3,1), the value is 1 + <span>sqrt(4-1^2) or equal to 1 + sqrt of 3.</span> In this case, the domain would be x equal to any numbers and the range equal to numbers from -2 ≤ y ≤ 2.

san4es73 [151]
Length of train : 100
length of bridge : 400
distance covered by the train to cross the bridge : (100 + 400) = 500
time taken by the train to cross : 30

speed = distance / time
speed = 500/30
speed = 16.67 meters per second <===
