Determine the value of a + b in the system of equations below. 5a + 4b = 22 7a-b= 11

Mathematics
1 answer:
dexar [7]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

We have a + b as;

2 + 3 = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want go get the value of a and b

from the second equation, we can get an expression for b

We have this as;

7a - b = 11

Thus,

b = 7a - 11

Now, from here, we can substitute the value of b into the first equation

We have this as;

5a + 4(7a - 11) = 22

5a + 28a -44 = 22

33a = 22 + 44

33a = 66

a = 66/33

a = 2

Recall;

b = 7a - 11

substituting the value of a from above;

b = 7(2) - 11

b = 14 - 11

b = 3

Please help !!<br> Solve the system of equation <br><br> Y=8x<br> Y= 2x+54
Finger [1]

Answer:

(9,72)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both equations equal y, set the equations equal to each other and solve for x.

8x=2x+54 Subtract 2x from both sides

6x= 54 Divide both sides by 6

x=9

Substitute x=9 into either equation and solve for y

y=8(9)

y=72

On a map, the scale shown is 1 inch: 20 miles. If a city is 900 square miles, what is the area of the city on the map?
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

2.25 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale is 1\ inch: 20\ miles

That means

1 inch on a map represent 20 miles in the city

so

An area of (1)(1)=1\ in^2 on a map represent an area of (20)(20)=400\ mi^2 in the city

Applying proportion

\frac{1}{400}\ \frac{in^2}{mi^2}=\frac{x}{900}\ \frac{in^2}{mi^2}\\\\x=900/400\\\\x=2.25\ in^2

lidiya [134]

Answer:

C = (2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

B = (10 ; 2)

M = (6 ; 2)

C = (x ; y )

|___________|___________|

B (10;2)            M (6;2)             C ( x; y)

So:

dBM = dMC

√[(2-2)^2 + (6-10)^2] = √[(y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2]

(2-2)^2 - (6-10)^2 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2

0 + (-4)^2 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2

16 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2

16 - (x - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2

Also:

2*dBM = dBC

2*√[(2-2)^2 + (6-10)^2] = √[(y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2]

4*[(0)^2 + (-4)^2] = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2

4*(16) = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2

64 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2

64 = 16 - (x - 6)^2 + (x - 10)^2

48 = (x - 10)^2 - (x - 6)^2

48 = x^2 - 20*x + 100 - x^2 + 12*x - 36

48 = - 20*x + 100 + 12*x - 36

8*x = 16

x = 2

Thus:

16 - (x - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2

16 - (2 - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2

16 - (-4)^2 = (y-2)^2

16 - 16 = (y-2)^2

0 =  (y-2)^2

0 = y - 2

2 = y

⇒ C = (2,2)
