)

t

, half life of tablet is about

2

hours and after

t

=

3

hours , remaining drug on patient's system is

42.875

mg.

Step-by-step explanation: Initial drug

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution.<br> 3x + y = -9<br> y=5x+7
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

The solution is x = -2, y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with the equation 3x + y = -9

Substitute the y for 5x+7 seen in the second equation

Now you have 3x + (5x+7) = -9

Lets solve:

Let's add the x's

Now we have 8x + 7 = -9

Substracy seven from each side

Now we have 8x = -16

Now let's divide 8 on each side

Now we have x = -2

Now lets plug in -2 to the second equation

The second equation is y = 5x+7

When we plug in -2 we get y=5(-2)+7

We multiply

We now have y = -10+7

Add

y = -3

The solution is x = -2, y = -3

A) Two angles are adjacent if their measures add up to 90°.
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

A) False

B) False

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Two angles whose measures add up to 90° are said to be complementary, while two angles are adjacent when formed beside each other. So, adjacent angles might be complementary or supplementary. Thus, the answer to the first part of the question is false.

B. When two angles share a side, they are said to be adjacent to each other. But supplementary angles add up to 180^{o}. Since adjacent angles might be complementary or supplementary, then the answer to the second part of the question is false.

How many x intercepts appear on the graph of this polynomial function? f(x)=x^4-5x^2 1 x intercept 2 x intercepts 3 x intercepts
Bumek [7]
You can find the number of x intercepts by setting f(x) equal to zero giving you 0=x^4-5x^2. You can factor out an x^2 and divide on both sides (when you divide 0 by anything it is still zero so the x^2 disappears), and you are left with 0=x^2-5, which you can solve easily giving you x=+/- sqrt(5). However, the original equation also has an x intercept at (0,0) which you can see by plugging 0 in for x. So the grand total of x intercepts is 3!
