Solve the simultaneous equations: 5x + 2y = 17 4x + y = 10

Mathematics
1 answer:
erik [133]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

(1, 6 )

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2y = 17 → (1)

4x + y = 10 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by - 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term

- 8x - 2y = - 20 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

- 3x + 0 = - 3

- 3x = - 3 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

5(1) + 2y = 17

5 + 2y = 17 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

2y = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 6

solution is (1, 6 )

In order to safely land, the angle that a plane approaches the runway should be no more than 15°. A plane is approaching Ottawa
belka [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  9.5°, yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant trig relation is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

The distance opposite the angle of elevation is the plane's height, 500 m. The distance adjacent to the angle of elevation is the horizontal distance to the plane, 3 km = 3000 m. Then the angle is found from ...

  tan(α) = 500/3000 = 1/6

  α = arctan(1/6) ≈ 9.46°

The plane is approaching at an angle of 9.46°. It is safe to land, since that angle is less than 15°.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The usual descent angle for most commercial air traffic is 3°. Some airport geography demands it be different (steeper). A higher descent angle can put undue stress on the landing gear.

Y = 2(6 + 1) + 5(3 + 2)
never [62]

Step-by-step explanation:

According to PEMDAS parentheses are first.

2(6+1) can be simplified to 12+2.

5(3+2) can be simplified to 15+10

Add these two together.

12+2+15+10

14+15+10

29+10

y=39

Note - when you have something like this in math 2(6+1) it means you need to do 2 x 6 and 2 x 1

Please help me to solve this​
zzz [600]

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the height by use Pythagoras theorem on the right triangle:

h = sqrt (5^2 - 4^2)

= sqrt 9

= 3.

Volume of the prism = area of the triangle * length

= 1/2 * 3 * 4 * 10

= 1/2 * 12 * 10

= 60 cm^3.

Total area = area of 2 triangles + area 0f 3 rectangles

= 2 * 1/2 * 3 * 4 + 3 * 10 +  4 * 10 + 5 * 10

= 12 + 30 + 40 + 50

= 132 cm^2.
