Answer 1

Looking at the first system of equations,

16x - 10y = 10

-8x - 6y = 6

If we multiply both sides of the second equation by 2, the coefficient of x is exactly the negative of the coefficient of x in the first equation.

-8x - 6y = 6

⇒   2 (-8x - 6y) = 2 (6)

⇒   -16x - 12y = 12

By combining this new equation with the first one, we can eliminate x and solve for y :

(16x - 10y) + (-16x - 12y) = 10 + 12

⇒   -22y = 22

⇒   y = -1

Then we just solve for x by replacing y in either equation.

16x - 10y = 10

⇒   16x - 10 (-1) = 10

⇒   16x + 10 = 10

⇒   16x = 0

⇒   x = 0

The main idea behind elimination is combining the given equations in just the right amount so that one of the variables disappears. The "right amount" involves using the LCM of the coefficients of a given variable. In this example, the x-coefficients had LCM(8, 16) = 16, so we only had to scale one of the equations (the one with -8x) to cancel all the x terms.

If we wanted to eliminate y first instead, we first note that LCM(6, 10) = 30. To get 30 as a coefficient on y, in the first equation we would have multiplied by 3:

16x - 10y = 10

⇒   3 (16x - 10y) = 3 (10)

⇒   48x - 30y = 30

And in the second equation, we would have multiplied by -5 (negative so that upon combining the equations, we end up with -30y + 30y = 0):

-8x - 6y = 6

⇒   -5 (-8x - 6y) = -5 (6)

⇒   40x + 30y = -30

Now combining the two scaled equations gives

(48x - 30y) + (40x + 30y) = 30 + (-30)

⇒   88x = 0

⇒   x = 0

We then solve for y :

16x - 10y = 10

⇒   -10y = 10

⇒   y = -1

so we end up with the same solution as before.

A plot of land doubles in size by adding x meters to the length and x meters to the width of the land?if the original plot had an area of 200 by 300 meters ,what is the value x?

Answers

Answer:

  x = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

The larger area is ...

  A = LW

  A = (300+x)(200+x) = x^2 +500x +60,000

The smaller area is ...

  A = (200)(300) = 60,000

We want the larger area to be double the smaller area, so ...

  x^2 +500x +60,000 = 2(60,000)

  x^2 +500x = 60,000 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 60,000

  x^2 +500x + 62500 = 122500 . . . add 250^2 to complete the square

  (x +250)^2 = 350^2

We're interested in the positive solution, so we can take the positive square root to find it:

  x +250 = 350

  x = 100 . . . . . . . . . subtract 250

_____

The graph shows the quadratic in the form x^2 +500x -60,000. That is, we're looking for zeros (x-intercepts) of the function.

C: 90 m/s
D: 540 m/s
E: None of these

Answers

Answer:

E none of these

Step-by-step explanation:

first convert the 30 km into m

it will be 30000m

speed = distance /time taken

convert the time into seconds too it will be 1200

so 30000/1200 = 25m/s

Answer:

-5x / 9x - 18

Step-by-step explanation:

= applying rule : ( a ) = a

then, ( 3x - 7 ) = 3x - 7

= - 5x- / 3x - 7 + 4 ( 3x - 5 ) - ( 6x - 9 )

= applying the fraction rule : -a/b = a/b

= 5x / 3x - 7 + 4 ( 3x - 5 ) - ( 6x - 9 )

The path of a ball thrown can be modeled by the equation f(x)=−16x^2+45x+6, where x is the horizontal distance. Use a transformation to create a new model in which the ball is thrown twice as far. What is the new equation, what is the transformation, and how did you pick this?

Answers

Answer:

  g(x) = -4x^2 +(45/2)x +6

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is scaled horizontally by replacing x with x/k, where k is the expansion factor. Here, we want to expand the graph horizontally by a factor of 2, so the new function will be f(x/2).

  g(x) = f(x/2) = -16(x/2)^2 +45(x/2) +6

  g(x) = -4x^2 +(45/2)x +6

Please answer circle theorem question.
Many thx.

Answers

Answer:

x = 125

Step-by-step explanation:

Tangents from an external point to a circle are congruent , that is

CA = CB

Then Δ ABC is isosceles with base angles being congruent

∠ BAC = ∠ ABC = [tex]\frac{180-70}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{110}{2}[/tex] = 55°

∠ ABC and x are adjacent angles on a straight line and sum to 180° , so

x = 180° - 55° = 125°

Then x = 125

This has an open circle at y = 3 which means the 3 is not included.

Then the y value of the second line equals the x value.

I believe it’s the top left one.

The two on the right are not correct because they use a closed dot for a strict inequality (the one without the line under it has the empty dot)

The bottom left one can’t be correct in my eyes because the second equation says that y (f(x)) equals x if x is greater than or equal to one. But the range of the numbers don’t go beyond (0,1).

The top left is inclusive of numbers that are greater than 1.
