Answer:

40+2s=60-3s

Step-by-step explanation:

The red balloon starts 40 feet off the ground and rises 2 feet per second. This means the height of the red ballon is 40+2s.

The blue balloon starts 60 feet off the ground at starts falling 3 feet per second. This means the height of the blue balloon is 60-3s.

Because we want to find out when the balloons will be the same height, we set them equal to each other.

40+2s=60-3s

Find the point, M, that divides segment AB into a ratio of 5:5 if A is at (0, 15) and B is at (20, 0).
Airida [17]

C

a ratio of 5 : 5 simplifies to 1 : 1, which basically means we require the midpoint of the line segment

using the midpoint formula

M = [\frac{1}{2} (0 + 20 ), \frac{1}{2} (15 + 0)] = (10, 7.5 )

Solve the system:<br> 5x-7y=-41<br> -3x-5y=-3
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

x = -4 , y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 7y = -41 ... (i)

-3x - 5y = -3 ... (ii)

Multiplying (i) by -3 and (ii) by 5 ;

-15x + 21y = 123 ... (i)

-15x - 25y = -15 ... (ii)

Subtracting (i) by (ii) ;

0 + 46y = 138

46y = 138

y = 138 ÷ 46 = 3

Returning to equation (ii) ;

-3x - 5(3) = -3

-3x = -3 + 15

-3x = 12

x = -4
