Oksana_A [137]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+3y=14 - 2x-y=6 = 4y=8

y=2

If you need x, just insert y into the equation and work out x from there

2x-2=6

2x=8

x=4

What is the equation represented by the order pairs {(0,32),(1,16),(2,8),(3,4)}?
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

The equation represented by the ordered pair is;

y = 2^(5-x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write the equation represented by the ordered pairs

From what we have in the question, we can see that while the x-values increase in arithmetic progression of 1

The y-values decrease in order of two geometrically

Thus, the equation is;

y = 2^(5-x)

Solve the system of equations: y= x^2 + 2x - 3 and y=3x+ 3.
Semenov [28]

Answer:

(-2, -3)

(3, 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we're gonna get rid of the y's with substitution

x² + 2x - 3 = 3x + 3

Let's make this equation equal to zero

Subtract 3 from both sides

x² + 2x - 3 = 3x + 3

            - 3         - 3

x² + 2x - 6 = 3x

Subtract 3x from both sides

x² + 2x - 6 = 3x

    - 3x        - 3x

x² - x - 6 = 0

Factor the equation

(x - 3)(x + 2) = 0

This means x can be -2 or 3

Let's solve it with -2 first, plug the new x in y = 3x + 3

y = 3(-2) + 3

y = -6 + 3 = -3

Do the same for x = 3

y = 3(3) + 3

y = 9 + 3 = 12

a flat for sale sign has a perimeter of 58 inches. the length is 5 inches longer than the width. what is the width?
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

25 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Information that is needed to solve the problem;

The formula for the perimeter is:

2(a+b) = P

where "a" is the length and "b" is the width.

2. Solving the problem;

Substitute the given values into the formula;

2( 5 + b ) = 58

Inverse operations;

2 ( 5 + b ) = 58

/2               /2

5 + b = 29

-5        -5

b = 25

A 5 divided by 48 lottery involves choosing 5 of the numbers from 1 through 48 and a 4 divided by 35 lottery involves choosing 4
Anika [276]

Answer:

4/35 lottery is easier to win.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the 5/48 lottery, the winning probability is \frac{5}{48} ≈0.1042

For the 4/35 lottery, the winning probability is \frac{4}{35} ≈ 0.1143

Since \frac{4}{35}  >  \frac{5}{48} , the lottery where one chooses 4 of the numbers 1 through 35 is easier to win.

Write out the first few terms of the series Summation from n equals 0 to infinity (StartFraction 2 Over 3 Superscript n EndFract
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

\sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{2}{3^n}\frac{(-1)^n}{5^n} = 15/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum you are trying to understand is this.

\sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{2}{3^n}\frac{(-1)^n}{5^n}

Remember that in general when you have a geometric series  

\sum\limits_{n = 0}^{\infty} a*r^n you have that

\sum\limits_{n = 0}^{\infty} a*r^n = \frac{a}{1-r}      and that equality is true as long as     |r| < 1.

Therefore here we have

\sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{2}{3^n}\frac{(-1)^n}{5^n} = \sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty} 2* \big(\frac{-1}{3*5} \big)^n = \sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty} 2* \big(\frac{-1}{15} \big)^n        and   \big|\frac{-1}{15} \big| = \frac{1}{15} < 1

Therefore we can use the formula and

\sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty} 2* \big(\frac{-1}{15} \big)^n =  \frac{2}{1-(-1/15)} = \frac{2}{1+1/15} = 30/16  = 15/8
