Use elimination to solve the system.

2x + 3y = 1
5x – 4y = 14

help would be appreciated :)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 2, y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this with elimination, we first multiply the first equation by -2.5

Our new equations are:

-5x - 7.5y = -2.5

5x – 4y = 14

After adding these two equations together, the x cancels out and we have:

-11.5y = 11.5

Divide both sides by -11.5

y = -1

Plugging this value into y in one of the equations we have:

2x + 3y = 1

2x + 3(-1) = 1

2x - 3 = 1

Add 3 to both sides

2x = 4

Divide both sides by 2

x = 2

You are buying a tv that originally cost 1,050 you have a coupon for 15% off what is your new total for the tv.

Answers

Answer:

$892.50 ( Eight Hundred Ninety Two dollars and fifty cents)

Step-by-step explanation:

Just subtract 15% from 1050 (you also can check calculator if you want second opinion!)

(have a nice day)

Answer is 892.50

This is because to find the percentage decrease of a number you must subtract the percentage from 100 . Then divide this number by 100 and multiply it with the original number . So I did 100-15= 85, 85/100= 0.85. 0.85 x 1050 = 892.50 which is the answer

Nelson is going on an overnight family reunion camping trip. He is in
charge of bringing the wood for the campfire. He will start the fire with 6
logs and then plans to add 3 logs for each hour the fire burns.
b. Suppose the family decides to stay for 2 nights next year. Write the
expression for the number of logs they would need for 2 nights.

Answers

Answer:

starting with 6 and adding 3 an hour over two days or 48 hours that  would be  3x48= 144 then add your original 6 that would be 150

Step-by-step explanation:

6 + (3x48) = logs for two days

6 + 144 = 150

150!!!

a. The number of logs needed for one night can be represented by the expression:

6 + 3h

b. The expression for the number of logs needed for 2 nights is 12 + 6h.

What is an expression?

A term is a single mathematical phrase. It might consist of only one variable—a letter—one number—positive or negative—or several variables multiplied but never added or subtracted. A number is placed in front of some nouns that have variables. Coefficients are numbers that come before phrases.

If Nelson plans to start the fire with 6 logs and add 3 logs for each hour the fire burns, then the number of logs needed for one night can be represented by the expression:

6 + 3h

where h is the number of hours the fire burns.

To find the number of logs needed for 2 nights, we can simply multiply the number of logs needed for one night by 2:

2(6 + 3h)

Simplifying this expression gives:

12 + 6h

So the expression for the number of logs needed for 2 nights is 12 + 6h. This represents starting the first night's fire with 6 logs, adding 3 logs per hour for that night, and then starting the second night's fire with 6 logs again, and adding 3 logs per hour for that night as well.

What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the given equation?
y -- 2 = 5 (x + 1)

Answers

Answer: Slope = 10.000/2.000 = 5.000

x-intercept = 7/-5 = -1.40000

y-intercept = 7/1 = 7.00000

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

y-2-(5*(x+1))=0

Equation of a Straight Line

3.1 Solve y-5x-7 = 0

Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line y-5x-7 = 0 and calculate its properties

Graph of a Straight Line :

Calculate the Y-Intercept :

Notice that when x = 0 the value of y is 7/1 so this line "cuts" the y axis at y= 7.00000

y-intercept = 7/1 = 7.00000

Calculate the X-Intercept :

When y = 0 the value of x is 7/-5 Our line therefore "cuts" the x axis at x=-1.40000

x-intercept = 7/-5 = -1.40000

Calculate the Slope :

Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is 7.000 and for x=2.000, the value of y is 17.000. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of 17.000 - 7.000 = 10.000 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)

Slope = 10.000/2.000 = 5.000

Geometric figure: Straight Line

Slope = 10.000/2.000 = 5.000

x-intercept = 7/-5 = -1.40000

y-intercept = 7/1 = 7.00000

b) f(x)=(x-4)^2 -3
c) f(x)=(x-3)^2 -4
d) f(x)=(x+3)^2 -4

Answers

Given:

The parent sine function is [tex]f(x)=x^2[/tex].

It shifts three units to the left and four units down.

To find:

The new function.

Solution:

The translation is defined as

[tex]f_1(x)=f(x+a)+b[/tex]                .... (1)

Where, a is horizontal shift and b is vertical shift.

If a>0, then the graph shifts a units left and if a<0, then the graph shifts a units right.

If b>0, then the graph shifts b units up and if b<0, then the graph shifts b units down.

Graph shifts 3 units to the left. So, a=3.

Graph shifts 4 units down. So, b=-4.

Putting a=3 and b=-4, we get

[tex]f_1(x)=f(x+3)-4[/tex]

[tex]f_1(x)=(x+3)^2-4[/tex]          [tex][\because f(x)=x^2][/tex]

Here, new function is also defined by f(x). So, [tex]f(x)=(x+3)^2-4[/tex].

Therefore, the correct option is d.
