2y = 3x-1
4x/y + 9y/x = 15
Find x and y

Answers

Answer:

  (x, y) = (3/7, 1/7) or (3, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The second equation can be rearranged to ...

  4x^2 +9y^2 = 15xy . . . . . . multiply by xy

  4x^2 -15xy +9y^2 = 0 . . . subtract 15xy

  (4x -3y)(x -3y) = 0 . . . . . . factor

This resolves to two linear equations:

 4x -3y = 0

  x -3y = 0

__

Combined with the first equation, we get two systems of equations. We can solve both of them at once by substituting for y and using a stand-in for the coefficient of x.

  y = (3x -1)/2 . . . . first equation solved for y

  Cx -3(3x -1)/2) = 0 . . . . substitute for y in the 2nd/3rd equations (C = 1 or 4)

  2Cx -9x +3 = 0 . . . . . multiply by 2

  x(2C -9) = -3 . . . . . . .subtract 3

  x = -3/(2C -9) = 3/(9 -2C) . . . . . remembering that C = 1 or 4

__

For C=1, x = 3/(9 -2) = 3/7

  y = (3(3/7) -1)/2 = 1/7

For C=4, x = 3/(9 -8) = 3

  y = (3(3) -1)/2 = 4

The solutions are (x, y) = (3/7, 1/7) and (3, 4).

_____

Additional comment

We could have substituted for y in the quadratic form of the second equation. This would give a quadratic in x that could be solved in any of the usual ways.

expand and simplify (m+7) (m+3)

Answers

Answer:

m^2+10m+21

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute:

m times m is m^2

m times 3 is 3m

7 times m is 7m

7 times 3 is 21

=> m^2+3m+7m+21

Add 3m and 7m

=> m^2+10m+21

Thus the equation is

m^2+10m+21

Hope this helps!

(m + 7)(m + 3)

= m(m + 3) + 7(m + 3)

= m² + 3m + 7m + 21

= m² + 10m + 21

Which of the following is a required deduction?
A. Health insurance
B. Disability insurance
C. FICA
D. State sales tax

Answers

To withhold a percentage of an employee's wages or salary and contribute an equal amount to these programs.FICA s a required deduction. Thus, option C is correct.

What is the FICA?

FICA (Federal Insurance Contributions Act) is a required deduction that includes Social Security and Medicare taxes for employees in the United States.

Health insurance and disability insurance may be offered by employers but are not required by law to be deducted from an employee's paycheck.

The current FICA tax rate is 7.65%, which includes a 6.2% Social Security tax and a 1.45% Medicare tax.

State sales tax is not a deduction from an employee's paycheck. It is a tax paid by consumers on purchases they make.

Therefore, FICA s a required deduction.

Answer:

-a + 7b

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is asking you to simplify the equation.

In order to do this, we will combine like terms (like terms are terms that share the same variable and/or exponent).

So we will combine 3a and -4a to get -1a or just -a, and now we'll combine 5b and 2b to get 7b.

So all together we have -a + 7b.

Answers

Answer:

5x-2x-x = 10 9z • 7p = 378

Step-by-step explanation:

With equations like these you're basically just plugging numbers in where there are variables. so if you have 5x-2x-x when x=5, you just plug in 5 wherever x is. 5x-2x-x turns into (5•5)-(2•5)-(1•5). you multiply the expressions in the parentheses to get 25-10-5 and then you simply subtract.

1. 5x-2x-x

2. (5•5)-(2•5)-(1•5)

3. 25-10-5

4. 10

We can do the same thing with your second example. 9z•7p when z=2 and p=3. When there is a z, you plug in a 2. When there is a p, you plug in a 3.

1. 9z•7p

2. (9•2) • (7•3)

3. 18 • 21

4. 378

Make x the subject of the formula,
y (x-4) squared +6

Answers

Answer:

Is "y (x-4) squared +6":     y = (x-4)^2 + 6?

If so,

x = y^(1/2) - 6^(1/2) + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the equation is:  y= (x-4)^2 + 6

y^(1/2)= (x-4) + 6^(1/2)

(x-4) = y^(1/2) - 6^(1/2)

x = y^(1/2) - 6^(1/2) + 4

A. $27.75
B. $34.96

D. $35.84

Answers

3 x $9.25 = 27.75
4/8 = 9.25/2 = 4.6 so 27.75+ 4.6 equals 32.37 (so I’ve only done 4/8 so far but it states it’s 7/8 so we’re gonna go ahead and add 2/8 of it more so that it’s 6/8) therefore we know 4/8 is 4.6 we’ll divide that by 2 to get 2/8 and that would be 2.3 so 32.37 + 2.3 equals 34.67 Nd we do the same again with the remainder additional 1/8 since we know 2/8 is 2.3 then we divide it by two that would 1.15 so 34.67+ 1.15 equals 35.81 and the closest answer is D
$27.75 is the answer I believe!

The sum of two numbers is 48.when the smaller number is subtracted from the larger number,the difference is 12. What are the two numbers

Answers

Answer:

The two numbers are:

30 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

a + b = 48

a - b = 12

From the first eq.

a = 48 - b

Replacing this last value in the second eq.

(48 - b) - b = 12

48 - 2b = 12

48 - 12 = 2b

36 = 2b

36/2 = b

18 = b

from the first eq.

a + 18 = 48

a = 48 - 18

a = 30

Check:

from the second eq.

a - b = 12

30 - 18 = 12
