Answer:

4.95 and 2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=7.2

x-y=2.7

Add equations

x+y + x-y= (2x-y+y)=2x

7.2+2.7=9.9

Therefore 2x=9.9 x=9.9/2=4.95

x=4.95

x+y=7.2

4.95+y=7.2

y=7.2-4.95=2.25

y=2.25

Answer:

4.95 and 2.25.

Step-by-step explanation: This is really long... (PLEASE TAKE NOTE THE INFO ISNT DIRECTLY WRITTEN BY ME).

Adding equations (1) and (2), we get

Therefore

x=4.95

Substituting value of x from (3) in (1), we get

y=2.25

From (3) and (4), the two numbers are 4.95 and 2.25.

Find the area. The figure is not drawn to scale. Please show work

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

13.8 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a triangle you use the formula a = 1/2 bh

a = 1/2 (6.9) (4) = 13.8

(simplier to understand) a = 1/2 (6.9) (4) = 27.6 divided by 1/2 = 13.8

You decide to put $2,000 in a savings account to save for a $3,000 downpayment on a new car. If the account has an interest rate

DanielleElmas [232]

It takes 10.155 years until you have $3,000 ⇒ 3rd

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for compound interest, including principal sum is:

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$ , where

A is the future value of the investment/loan, including interest
P is the principal investment amount
r is the annual interest rate (decimal)
n is the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t
t is the time the money is invested or borrowed for

∵ You decide to put $2,000 in a savings account

∴ P = 2000

∵ You want to save for $3,000

∴ A = 3000

∵ The account has an interest rate of 4% per year and is

compounded monthly

∴ r = 4% = 4 ÷ 100 = 0.04

∴ n = 12 ⇒ compounded monthly

- Substitute all of these values in the formula above to find t

∵ $3000=2000(1+\frac{0.04}{12})^{12t}$

- Divide both sides by 2000

∴ $1.5=(1+\frac{1}{300})^{12t}$

∴ $1.5=(1\frac{1}{300})^{12t}$

- Change the mixed number to an improper fraction

∴ $(1.5)=(\frac{301}{300})^{12t}$

- Insert ㏒ for both sides

∴ $log(1.5)=log(\frac{301}{300})^{12t}$

- Remember $log(a)^{n}=nlog(a)$

∴ $log(1.5)=(12t)log(\frac{301}{300})$

- Divide both sides by $log(\frac{301}{300})$

∴ 121.84 = 12 t

- Divide both sides by 12

∴ 10.155 = t

It takes 10.155 years until you have $3,000

Photo attached A. -2 B. -1 C. 1/-2 D. 1/2

kifflom [539]

Step-by-step explanation:

(X1,Y1) = (-2,2)

(X2,Y2) = (0,1)

• Find slope.

m = (Y2 - Y1)/(X2 - X1)

m = (1 - 2)/(0 - (-2))

m = -1/2

The answer is C.

With full explanation from the internet like before 3x2-6x+5=0

Elodia [21]

Answer:

$\sf x=1+i\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{3}} \ \quad and \quad \:x=1-i\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{3}}$

Explanation:

Given Expression:

3x² - 6x + 5 = 0

Use the Quadratic Formula:

$\sf x = \dfrac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \ \ when \ \ ax^2 + bx + c = 0$

insert coefficients

$\Longrightarrow \sf x = \dfrac{-\left(-6\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-6\right)^2-4\cdot \:3\cdot \:5}}{2\cdot \:3}$

$\Longrightarrow \sf x = \dfrac{\left6\right\pm \sqrt{-24} }{6}$

$\Longrightarrow \sf x = \dfrac{\left6\right\pm 2\sqrt{6}i}{6}$

$\Longrightarrow \sf x =1 \pm i\dfrac{\sqrt{6} }{3}$

$\Longrightarrow \sf x=1+i\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{3}}, \quad 1-i\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{3}}$
