Solve using substitution. x = –2 5x + 3y = 14

Mathematics

Nookie1986 [14]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:  (-2, 8)

Explanation:

Plug x = -2 into the second equation. Isolate y.

5x+3y = 14

5(-2)+3y = 14

-10+3y = 14

3y = 14+10

3y = 24

y = 24/3

y = 8

We have x = -2 lead to y = 8.

Therefore, the ordered pair (x,y) = (-2,8) is the solution to this system.

What is the value of x?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive angles in a parallelogram are supplementary, thus

∠ A + ∠ B = 180, substitute values

9x + 8 + 8x + 2 = 180, that is

17x + 10 = 180 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

17x = 170 ( divide both sides by 17 )

x = 10

If there are 420 students surveyed, which equation can be used to find the number of students s who prefer rap? Pop: 5/8 Jazz: 1
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

B. s=\dfrac{1}{4}\times420

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students surveyed = 420

Of which only \dfrac{1}{4} prefer rap.

So, the number of people who like rap is the product of the fraction of people who prefer rap and the total number of students.

\text{Number of students who prefer rap}=s=\dfrac{1}{4}\times420\\\Rightarrow s=105

The number of students that prefer rap is 105

So the equation is s=\dfrac{1}{4}\times420.

A ladder is placed with its foot 5m from the bottom of a wall 12m high. The top of the ladder just
Stels [109]

Answer:

13 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder forms a right triangle with the wall that has legs of 5 and 12. We need to solve for the length of the ladder, which in this case, is the hypotenuse of the right triangle. You could use the Pythagorean Theorem but there's an easier way to do this. We can use the 5 - 12 - 13 Pythagorean triple so we know that the length of the ladder is 13 m.

So I have to compute the following but i don't know what they mean any help?
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a Combination (as in permutation vs combination) question the symbol (n r) refers to "n choose r". This is sometimes written as nCr

i.e the question is asking you to find how many combinations each will yield when you chose r items from n item without repetition and order does not matter.

I will only do the first question for you and you can just follow the same steps to solve the rest of the questions.

Recall that

nCr=\frac{n!}{(r!)(n-r)!}

Consider question a) we are given (5 1) or ₅C₁

we can see that n = 5 and r = 1

If we substitute this into the formula:

₅C₁ = (5!) / [ (1!)(5- 1)!]

= (5!) / [ (5- 1)!]

= (5!) / (4!)

= (5·4·3·2·1) / (4·3·2·1)

= 5

hence ₅C₁ = 5
