Answer:

x=-4 y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite equations:

x=−4y+16;3x+4y=8

Step: Solvex=−4y+16for x:

x=−4y+16

Step: Substitute−4y+16forxin3x+4y=8:

3x+4y=8

3(−4y+16)+4y=8

−8y+48=8(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−8y+48+−48=8+−48(Add -48 to both sides)

−8y=−40

−8y

−8

−40

−8

(Divide both sides by -8)

y=5

Step: Substitute5foryinx=−4y+16:

x=−4y+16

x=(−4)(5)+16

x=−4(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

x=−4 and y=5

The area of the triangle EFG is 7.4 square units.

Explanation:

Given that the measurements of the sides of the triangle are EF = 8, EG = 8 and $m\angle E=22^{\circ}$

We need to determine the area of the triangle EFG

<u>Area of the triangle:</u>

The area of the triangle EFG can be determined using the formula,

$\text {Area}=\frac{1}{2} fg \sin E$

Substituting the values, we get,

$\text {Area}=\frac{1}{2} (5)(8) \sin 22^{\circ}$

Simplifying the values, we have,

$\text {Area}=\frac{1}{2}(40)(0.37)$

Multiplying, we get,

$\text {Area}=\frac{14.8}{2}$

Dividing, we get,

$\text {Area}=7.4$

Hence, the area of the triangle EFG is 7.4 square units.

A movie club offers two plans. Plan A charges $40 to sign up for the plan and $8 for each movie ticket. Plan B charges $67 to si

Travka [436]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

X=Tickets bought

A=$40+$8x

B=$67+$5x

After 1 ticket bought it would be:

A=$48

B=$72

After 9 tickets bought:

A=$112

B=$112

From this you can see that Plan B is better for ones who would see 9+ movies as the recurring price would be lower. If you would only go to watch a couple movies, Plan A would be better.

plain why the function is discontinuous at the given number a. (Select all that apply.) f(x) = x2 − 2x x2 − 4 if x ≠ 2 1 if x =

ElenaW [278]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

$f(x)=\left\{\begin{matrix}\dfrac{x^2-2x}{x^2-4}&,if\ \ x\neq 2 \\ 1&,if\ \ x=2\end{matrix}\right.$

We have to explain that why the function is discontinuous at x=2

We know that if function is continuous at x=a then LHL=RHL=f(a).

$f(x)=\frac{x(x-2)}{(x+2)(x-2)}=\frac{x}{x+2}$

LHL=Left hand limit when x <2

Substitute x=2-h

where h is small positive value >0

$\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}f(x)=\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\frac{2-h}{2-h+2}$

$\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\frac{2-h}{4-h}=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$

Right hand limit =RHL when x> 2

Substitute

x=2+h

$\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}f(x)=\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\frac{2+h}{2+h+2}=\lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\frac{2+h}{4+h}$

$=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$

LHL=RHL= $\frac{1}{2}$

f(2)=1

$LHL=RHL\neq f(2)$

Hence, function is discontinuous at x=2
