Answer:

  a = 3, b = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the first equation for y, we get ...

  2y +16 = 6x . . . . . given

  y = 8 +3x . . . . . . . divide by 2

  y = 3x -8 . . . . . . . subtract 8

In order for the system of equations to have infinitely many solutions, the second equation must be the same as this:

  y = ax +b

  a = 3, b = -8

Two trains leave towns 471 miles apart at the same time and travel toward each other. One train travels 21 miles per hour slower
nadya68 [22]

Let the slower train's velocity be x-21

Let the faster train's velocity be x

We know that the approach speed is the sum of both speeds, so x+x -21= 2x-21.

The approach rate is given by Distance/time = 471/3 = 157mpH

x+x-21=157

2x=157+21

2x=178

x=89mph

The slower train is travelling 89-21 = 68mph

The faster train is travelling 89mph.

Answer:

  1. 150π ft²
  2. 10π ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the sector :

Area (sector) = \pi r^{2} \times \frac{\theta}{360^{o}}

Finding the area given r = 30 ft. and θ = 60° :

⇒ Area = π × (30)² × 60/360

⇒ Area = π × 900/6

⇒ Area = 150π ft²

===========================================================

Length of the arc :

Length (arc) =2 \pi r} \times \frac{\theta}{360^{o}}

Finding the arc length given r = 30 ft. and θ = 60° :

⇒ Arc Length = 2 × π × 30 × 60/360

⇒ Arc Length = 60/6 × π

⇒ Arc Length = 10π ft.

Ignore my writing <br> Solve the inequality
Reil [10]

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

-5 - (15x-1) = 2(7x-16) -x

Distribute the negative sign

-5-15x+1 = 2(7x-16)-x

Distribute the 2

-5-15x+1 = 14x -32-x

Combine like terms

-4-15x = 13x-32

Add 15x to each side

-4-15x+15x = 13x+15x-32

-4 = 28x-32

Add 32 to each side

-4+32 = 28x-32+32

28 = 28x

Divide each side by 28

28/28 = 28x/28

1 =x
