Solve this linear equation
a+b=8
a-b=4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a = 12   b = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation it would be easiest to use the elimination method

a + b = 8

a - b = 4

a = 12

Now all we have to do is substitute 12 for a in any equation. For this I will use the first one.

12 + b = 8

Lastly subtract 12 from both sides

b = -4

Answer 2

Answer:

a = 6 , b = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

a+b - (a-b) = 2b

8 - 4 = 4

2b = 4

b = 4 ÷ 2

b = 2

When b = 2,

a+2 = 8

a = 8 - 2

a = 6

the sum of two squares of two consecutive natural numbers is 41.Find the numbers​

Answers

AnswEr :

The 2 unknown numbers are 4 and 5 .

Explanation :

Let the numbers be x and x + 1.

From the given information,

[tex]\dashrightarrow\sf \ \ \ x^2 + (x + 1)^2 = 41 \\ \\ \\ [/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow\sf \ \ \ 2 {x}^{2} + 2x + 1 = 41 \\ \\ \\ [/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow\sf \ \ \ 2 {x}^{2} + 2x + 1 - 41=0 \\ \\ \\ [/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow\sf \ \ \ {x}^{2} + x - 20 = 0 \\ \\ \\ [/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow\sf \ \ \ (x + 5)(x - 4)=0 \\ \\ \\ [/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow\sf \ \ \ { \underline{ \boxed{ \bf{ \red{x = - 5,4}}}}} \ \bigstar \\ \\ [/tex]

But, as we know -5 is not a natural number,

Hence, x = 4 .

So the 2 unknown numbers are :

x = 4 [1st number]

x + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5 [2nd number]

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Solution :

Let the number be x and x + 1.

Which number, when substituted for x, makes the equation 4x+8=16 true?

Answers

X would be 2, 4(2)+8=16.

Answer:

[tex] \boxed{ \bold{ \boxed{ \sf{2}}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \sf{4x + 8 = 16}[/tex]

Move 8 to right hand side and change its sign

⇒[tex] \sf{4x = 16 - 8}[/tex]

Subtract 8 from 16

⇒[tex] \sf{4x = 8}[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 4

⇒[tex] \sf{ \frac{4x}{4} = \frac{8}{4} }[/tex]

Calculate

Answers

Answer:

a) 820

b)450

c)  -540

d) -294

e) 1440

f) 1425

Step-by-step explanation:

a) it is an arithmetic progression with ratio=4

   a1=3,

     a2=3+r=3+4=7.....

    a20=a1+19r

so a20=3+19*4=3+76=79

S=(a1+an)*n/2 where n=20

so S=(3+79)*20/2=820

b) a15=a1+14*r=2+14*4=2+56=58

S=(a1+a15)*15/2=(2+58)*15/2=60*15/2=30*15=450

It is the same formula for all  the exercises

S=(a1+an)*n/2 ,     where n is the number of terms

c) a40=30+39*(-3)=30-87=-57

So S=(30-57)*40/2=-540

d) a14=5+13*(-4)=5-52=-47

S=(5-47)*14/2=-42*14/2=-42*7=-294

e) it is 5+7+9+......+75

nr of  terms  = (an-a1) :r+1=(75-5):2+1=36

S=(5+75)*36/2=36*40=1440

f) ratio=7-4=3

the  same formula for n= (91-4):3+1=87:3+1=29+1=30

S=(4+91)*30/2=95*30/2=2850/2=1425

A price decreases from $986 to $828.24. What is the percent change?

Answers

Answer:

-16% change

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a percent decrease is [tex]\frac{original-new}{original}\cdot100[/tex]. The original value was 986, and the new value is 828.24, so we can substitute inside the equation.

[tex]\frac{986-828.24}{986} \cdot100\\\\\frac{157.76}{986} \cdot100\\\\0.16\cdot100\\\\16[/tex]

So the percent change is -16%.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

1 / (sin 10°) − √3 / (cos 10°)

Multiply top and bottom of the first fraction by ½ cos 10°.

½ cos 10° / (½ cos 10° sin 10°) − √3 / (cos 10°)

Multiply top and bottom of the second fraction by ½ sin 10°.

½ cos 10° / (½ cos 10° sin 10°) − ½√3 sin 10° / (½ sin 10° cos 10°)

Combine fractions.

(½ cos 10° − ½√3 sin 10°) / (½ sin 10° cos 10°)

Change ½ to sin 30°, and change ½√3 to cos 30°.

(sin 30° cos 10° − cos 30° sin 10°) / (½ sin 10° cos 10°)

Use angle sum formula.

sin(30° − 10°) / (½ sin 10° cos 10°)

sin 20° / (½ sin 10° cos 10°)

Multiply top and bottom by 4.

4 sin 20° / (2 sin 10° cos 10°)

Use double angle formula.

4 sin 20° / sin 20°

4

We are given the equation 1 / sin(10°) - √3 / cos(10°) = 4, and want to prove that 1 / sin(10°) - √3 / cos(10°) equals 4.

Let's start by combining the expressions '1 / sin(10°)' and '√3 / cos(10°)' in the expression '1 / sin(10°) - √3 / cos(10°).'

1 / sin(10°) - √3 / cos(10°)

= cos(10°) - √3sin(10°) / sin(10°) [tex]*[/tex] cos(10°)

Now let's multiply the numerator and denominator by a common value. In this case it's most suitable to multiply both by 2. We will receive the expression 2(cos(10°) - √3sin(10°)) / 2(sin(10°) [tex]*[/tex] cos(10°)). We can further simplify this expression knowing that 2(sin(10°) [tex]*[/tex] cos(10°)) = 2sin(20°).

2(cos(10°) - √3sin(10°)) / 2sin(20°)

We can now bring the two on the bottom to the numerator, becoming 1 / 2.  Remember that the ' 1 / 2 ' will be distributed now. After the distribution we receive the expression 4( 1 / 2(cos(10°) - √3 / 2sin(10°)) /  2sin(20°). We can now use the trivial functions 1 / 2 = sin(30°), and √3 / 2 = cos(30°).

4(sin(30°)(cos(10°) - cos(30°)(sin(10°) ) / sin(20°))

= 4((sin(30 - 10°)) / sin(20°) = 4

PS: You just can solve the lim(x->2) instead of lim(u->0) if u want

Answers

Answer:

π − 12

Step-by-step explanation:

lim(x→2) (sin(πx) + 8 − x³) / (x − 2)

If we substitute x = u + 2:

lim(u→0) (sin(π(u + 2)) + 8 − (u + 2)³) / ((u + 2) − 2)

lim(u→0) (sin(πu + 2π) + 8 − (u + 2)³) / u

Distribute the cube:

lim(u→0) (sin(πu + 2π) + 8 − (u³ + 6u² + 12u + 8)) / u

lim(u→0) (sin(πu + 2π) + 8 − u³ − 6u² − 12u − 8) / u

lim(u→0) (sin(πu + 2π) − u³ − 6u² − 12u) / u

Using angle sum formula:

lim(u→0) (sin(πu) cos(2π) + sin(2π) cos(πu) − u³ − 6u² − 12u) / u

lim(u→0) (sin(πu) − u³ − 6u² − 12u) / u

Divide:

lim(u→0) [ (sin(πu) / u) − u² − 6u − 12 ]

lim(u→0) (sin(πu) / u) + lim(u→0) (-u² − 6u − 12)

lim(u→0) (sin(πu) / u) − 12

Multiply and divide by π.

lim(u→0) (π sin(πu) / (πu)) − 12

π lim(u→0) (sin(πu) / (πu)) − 12

Use special identity, lim(x→0) ((sin x) / x ) = 1.

Suppose A has a coordinate of 8 and AB = 3. What are the possible midpoints of AB?

Answers

Answer:

The possible midpoints of AB are [tex]\frac{19}{2}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{13}{2}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Let suppose that A and B have one-dimensional coordinates. GIven that [tex]A = 8[/tex] and [tex]AB = 3[/tex], there are two possible locations for B:

[tex]B_{1} = A+AB[/tex]

[tex]B_{1} =8+3[/tex]

[tex]B_{1} = 11[/tex]

[tex]B_{2} = A-AB[/tex]

[tex]B_{2} = 8-3[/tex]

[tex]B_{2} = 5[/tex]

The midpoint equations for each case are, respectively:

[tex]m_{1} = \frac{A+B_{1}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m_{1}=\frac{8+11}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m_{1} = \frac{19}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m_{2} = \frac{A+B_{2}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m_{2} = \frac{5+8}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m_{2} = \frac{13}{2}[/tex]

The possible midpoints of AB are [tex]\frac{19}{2}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{13}{2}[/tex].

It says to simplify this, by combinding like terms

NEED IMMEDIATE HELP Water flows through a pipe at a rate of 6 fluid ounces per day. Express this rate of flow in cubic meters per year. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

0.06 cubic meters per year...

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of water flows through a pipe is 0.06 cubic meters per year.

What is rate of flow?

It is the volume of fluid flows out from the container per unit time.

Given that,

Water flows through a pipe at a rate of 6 fluid ounces per day. It can be written as:

Water flows per day ⇔ 6 fluid ounces

∴ Water flows per year ⇔  365 x (6 fluid ounces)

Volume of water in milliliter,

Water flows per year ⇔  365 x (6 x 29.574 ml )

Volume of water in cubic meter,

Water flows per year ⇔  365 x ([tex]\frac{6 x 29.574}{1000000}[/tex] [tex]m^{3}[/tex]) = 0.06477   [tex]m^{3}[/tex]
