Step-by-step explanation:

4x+5y=4 (equation 1)

2x-y=9 (equation2)

solving equation 1 and 2 and multiplying equation 2 by 2

4x+5y=4

4x-2y=18

- + -

________

7y= -14

y= -2

putting the value of y in equation 2

2x-y=9

2x+2=9

2x=7

x=3.5

Answer:

x= \dfrac 72, ~~y= -2

Step by step explanation:

4x+5y=4~~~...(i)\\\\2x-y=9~~~...(ii)\\\\\text{Multiply eq (ii) by 2 to isolate x:}\\\\4x-2y=18~~~.....(iii)\\\\(iii)-(i):\\\\4x-2y-4x-5y=18-4\\\\\implies -7y=14\\\\\implies y = -\dfrac{14}7 = -2\\\\\text{Substitute}~ y=-2~ \text{in equation (iii):}\\\\4x-2(-2) = 18\\\\\implies 4x +4 = 18\\\\\implies 4x = 18-4\\\\\implies 4x = 14\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{14}4 = \dfrac 72\\\\\text{Hence}~ (x,y) =\left(\dfrac 72 , -2 \right)

Identify the phase shift of each function. Describe each phase shift ( use a phrase like 3 units to the left):
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

The phase shift:

1 unit to the right and 1 unit up

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ y = 1 + sin2(x - 1)

∴ y = 1 + sin(2x - 2)

∵ y = Sin(Bx - C) + D

∵ The vertical shift is D

∴ The horizontal shift is -C/B

∴ The vertical shift is 1 unit up

∴ The horizontal shift is --2/2 = 1 ⇒ 1 unite to the right

Evaluate: .25 (1.2 x 3 - 1.25) + 3.45
iragen [17]

The order to us solve is:

  1. Parentheses
  2. Multiplication
  3. Sum and subtraction

Let's go:

25(1.2\times 3 - 1.25) + 3.45\\25(3.6-1.25)+3.45\\25\times 2.35 + 3.45\\58.75+3.45\\62.2

Therefore, the result is 62.2.

Explain how you could calculate the surface area of a<br> square pyramid.
lesya [120]

To find the surface area, use this square pyramid surface area formula: Square Pyramid Surface Area = 2 x B x S + B 2 B = Width of the Square Base S = Slant length of one of the triangular faces and is calculated from the height and base width by using the equation: S= The square root of [(.5B) 2 + Height 2] .

For f(x) = 3x + 1 and g(x) = x^2 - 7, find f(g(4)).
kodGreya [7K]

First, let's find g(4). After we find it, we can substitute the value into f(x).


To find g(4), we need to substitute x = 4 into the function g(x), as shown below:

g(x) = x^2 - 7

g(4) = 4^2 - 7

g(4) = 9


Now that we have found g(4) = 9, we can substitute this value in for x in f(x).

f(x) = 3x + 1

f(9) = 3(9) + 1

f(9) = 28


f(g(4)) is equal to 28.
