Answer:

y = 4 , x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 2y =8----------equ{1}

make 4x subject of the formula

4x = 8- 2y.................equ(2)

now, substitute 4x into equ{1}

4(8-2y) + 2y = 8

32 - 8y + 2y = 8

Collect like terms

-8y + 2y = 8 - 32

-6y = -24

divide both sides by -6

y = 4

Substitute y into equ(2)

4x = 8-2(4)

4x = 8 - 8

4x = 0

divide both sides by 4

x = o

CHECK

4(0) + 2(4) =8

0 + 8 = 8

Write the equation of a line Parallel to the given line and passes through points (-4, -3); (2, 3). Hints find the slope by usin

julia-pushkina [17]

First, we obtain the gradient (slope) of the first parallel line

$\text{gradient, m}_1\text{ = }\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\text{ = }\frac{3-(-3)}{2-(-4)}=\frac{6}{6}\text{ = 1}$

Recall that since both lines are parallel, we have that,

$m_1=m_2$

Thus

$m_2\text{ = 1}$

Hence, we can find the equation of the parallel line given that it passes through the points (-4, -3)

Using

$\begin{gathered} y\text{ = mx + c} \\ \text{where m = m}_2\text{ = 1} \\ \text{and x = -4 , y = -3, we have} \\ -3\text{ = 1(-4) + c} \\ -3\text{ = -4 + c} \\ 4\text{ - 3 = c} \\ c\text{ = 1} \\ \text{Thus, the equation of the line is y = (1)x + 1} \\ y\text{ = x + 1} \end{gathered}$

If 40% of a number is 56, what was the original number?

oksian1 [2.3K]

40/100= 56/x 40x=100(56) 40x=5600 Divide both sides by 40 to get x alone. X=140

Can someone help me with this?

aivan3 [116]

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a sphere is V = 4/3 πr³.

Given

Volume (v) = 57ft³

$v = \frac{4}{3} \pi {r}^{3}$

$57 = \frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times {r}^{3}$

$57 = \frac{12.56}{3} \times {r}^{3}$

$57 = 4.19 \times {r}^{3}$

${r}^{3} = \frac{57}{4.19}$

${r}^{3} = 13.6$

$r = \sqrt[3]{13.6}$

Therefore r = 2.4 ft

I gave my answers by rounding off. so if you don't round off then it's answer is 2.3 ft

How can you find a trigonometric function of an acute angle 0 ?

Shkiper50 [21]

The characteristics of similar triangles, originally formulated by Euclid, are the building blocks of trigonometry. Euclid's theorems state if two angles of one triangle have the same measure as two angles of another triangle, then the two triangles are similar. Also, in similar triangles, angle measure and ratios of corresponding sides are preserved. Because all right triangles contain a 90° angle, all right triangles that contain another angle of equal measure must be similar. Therefore, the ratio of the corresponding sides of these triangles must be equal in value. These relationships lead to the trigonometric ratios. Lowercase Greek letters are usually used to name angle measures. It doesn't matter which letter is used, but two that are used quite often are alpha (α) and theta (θ).
