Let numbers be x and y

ATQ

  • x+y=49---(1)

  • x-y=9---(2)

Adding both

\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x=58

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{58}{2}

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=29

Now putting value in eq(2)

\\ \sf\longmapsto x-y=9

\\ \sf\longmapsto 29-9=y

\\ \sf\longmapsto y=20

in a canoe race, a team paddles downstream 480 m in 60 s. The same team makes the trip upstream in 80 s. Find the team's rate in
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
480=60(v+s) 

480=60v+60s

8=v+s

s=8-v...

480=80(v-s)  using s from above we get:

480=80(v-(8-v))

6=v-8+v

6=2v-8

2v=14

v=7, and since s=8-v, s=1

So the rate of the team is 7m/s while the rate of the stream is 1m/s

Part A: Marguerite rented a truck at $125 for 2 days. If she rents the same truck for 5 days, she has to pay a total rent of $27
SOVA2 [1]
Part A: To get an equation into standard form to represent the total amount  rented (y) that Marguerite has to pay for renting the truck for x amount of days, we use the formula for the equation of a straight line.

Remember that the equation of a straight line passing through points is ( x_{1} , y_{1} ) and the points ( x_{2} , y_{2} ) is given by
y - y_{1} / x - x_{1} = y - y_{2} / x - x_{2}

Knowing that Marguerite rented a truck at $125 for 2 days, we know if she rents the exact same truck for 5 days, she has to pay a total of $275 for the rent.
<span>
This means that the line modeling this situation crosses points at (2, 125) and (5, 275).
</span>
The equation modeling <span>the total rent (y) that Marguerite has to pay for renting the truck for x days is given by
</span><span>
y - 125 / x - 2 = 275 - 125 / 5 - 2 = 150 / 3 = 50
</span>
But if you are writing the equation in standard form it would be <span>
</span><span>
50x - y = -25


Part B:
When writing the function using function notation it means you are making y the subject of the formula and then replacing the y with f(x).
</span>
If you remember that from part A, we have that the equation for the total rent which is y that Marguerite has to pay for renting the truck for x amount of days is given by
y = 50x + 25.<span>
</span><span>
Writing the equation using the function notation would give us this
f(x) = 50x + 25


Part C:
To graph the function, we name the x-axis the number of days and name the y-axis total rent. The x-axis is numbered using the intervals of 1 while the y-axis is numbered using the intervals of 50.
The points of </span>(2,125) and of (5,275) are marked on the coordinate axis and a straight line is drawn to pass through these two points.

Find x value for the point that splits segment co in halt point c is located at 4) and point D is located at (3,7)
VLD [36.1K]
Okay to split a segment in half you just need to find the midpoint of the two endpoints.  Mathematically this is just the average of the coordinates of the endpoints which is:

mp=((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2)

Which in this case is:

mp=((-2+3)/2, (4+7)/2)

mp=(1/2, 11/2)

mp=(0.5, 5.5)

So the x-coordinate by itself is just 0.5, or answer c.

if the vertex of a parabola is (-4,6) and another point on the curve is (-3,14), what is the coefficient of the squared expressi
Softa [21]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Here (h, k) = (- 4, 6 ), thus

y = a(x + 4)² + 6

To find a substitute (- 3, 14) into the equation

14 = a(- 3 + 4)² + 6 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

8 = a

Thus the coefficient of the x² term is a = 8
