One number is 4 less than 3 times a second number. If 3 more than two times the first
number is decreased by 2 times the second number, the result is 11. Use the substitution
method. What is the first number?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The first number (x) = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the first number

Let y = the second number

x = 3*y - 4

2x + 3 - 2y = 11        Subtract 3 from both sides

2x - 2y = 11 - 3

2x - 2y = 8              Divide by 2

x - y = 4                   Add y to both sides

x = y + 4                  Now go back to the very first equation. Substitute for x

y + 4 = 3y - 4          Subtract y from both sides

4 = 3y - y - 4

4 = 2y - 4                Add 4 to both sides

4 + 4 = 2y

8 = 2y                     Divide by 2

8/2 = y

y = 4

x = 3y - 4

x = 3*4 - 4

x = 12 - 4

x = 8

Answers

Answer:

(12,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

So whenever you are asked for an "intercept" it is the point where a line crosses the axis. The x intercept is where the line crosses at the x axis (horizontal line on the graph) and the y intercept is where the y axis crosses (vertical axis).

So this question is really asking where is the point when y = 0

The x values in the chart are 5 apart-- 22 +5 = 27, 27+ 5 = 32

The y values are 18 apart --> 36 + 18 = 54, 54+ 18 = 72

Make a little chart where y = 0 (this is where the x crosses) and you can see

there is a point at (17, 18) and then (12, 0) and that point is the x intercept.

Answer:

(12, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

the x-intercept is the point, where y=0.

so, the second coordinate is therefore 0, no matter what.

now, at what x is that ?

let's find the line function.

a line is

y = a×x + b

let's use the first point (22, 36)

36 = a×22 + b

a = (36 - b)/22

let's use the second point (27, 54)

54 = a×27 + b

now we use the first expression describing a in terms of b and insert that into the second expression.

54 = 27×(36 - b)/22 + b

54×22 = 27×(36 - b) + 22b = 972 - 27b + 22b

1188 = 972 - 5b

216 = -5b

b = -43.2

=>

a = (36 - -43.2)/22 = (36 + 43.2)/22 =79.2/22 = 3.6

our line is

y = 3.6x - 43.2

so, now back to the question, at what x is y=0 ?

0 = 3.6x - 43.2

3.6x = 43.2

x = 12

The graph shows the value of a certain model of car compared with its age.
Which statement is false?
Car's value ($)
Car's ago (years)
A. The correlation coefficient is close to -1,
B. The car's value is the explanatory variable.
O O Od
C. The car's age is strongly correlated to its value.
D. The data show a negative linear relationship.

Answers

Answer:

B. The car's age is the explanatory variable

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph shows a negative linear relationship between car's age and car's value because, as as one variable increases, the other decreases.

Also, data points are close to each other along the line of best fits, therefore, the correlation coefficient would be close to -1, showing a strong negative relationship.

An explanation variable is one that isn't affected or dependent on another variable. In this case, the car's age is the explanatory variable and not the car's value. The car's value is dependent on the car's age, therefore, the car's age is the explanatory variable.

The statement in option B is FALSE.

Answers

Answer:

- 10p2

Step-by-step explanation:

p(8p - 18 p)

p x -10p

ans = -10p2

Answer:  -10p²

This is the same as saying -10p^2

============================================

Explanation:

Both terms 8p² and -18p² are like terms.

We combine them in much the same way as 8-18 = -10, just with a p² attached to everything.

So 8p² - 18p²  = (8-18)p² = -10p²

The coefficient -10 is negative because we're subtracting small minus big. If it was the other way around, then we'd get a positive value.

What is the maximum value of the objective function, P, with the given constraints? P=25x+45y 4x+y≤16 x+y≤10 x≥0 y≥0

Answers

Answer:

the maximum is 450 and the minimum is 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

P(x, y) = 25*x + 45*y

First, is easy to see that as x and y increase, also does the value of P(x, y)

So we just need to find the largest and smallest possible values of these variables. We also can notice that the variable y is being multiplicated by a larger coefficient than x, so we prioritize larger values of y when we can.

We know that:

4x+y ≤ 16

x + y ≤10

x≥0

y≥0

Let's start with the second inequality, let's solve this for y:

y ≤ 10 - x

and from the first one we get:

y ≤ 16 - 4*x

Just to show that maximizing x does not work, let's do it:

from the second one, knowing that the minimum value of y is y = 0

we have that:

0 ≤ 16 - 4*x

Here the maximum value that y can take is x = 1

0 ≤ 16 - 4*1 = 0

So we can have the combination y = 0 and x = 1, when we maximize x (here we can see that we should not maximize x)

in this case we get:

P(1, 0) = 25*1 + 47*0 = 25

let's write again our inequalities:

y ≤ 10 - x

y ≤ 16 - 4*x

If now we take the minimum value of x, x = 0, we get:

y ≤ 10

y ≤ 16

Because the first one is more restrictive, we know that the maximum value that y can take (when x = 0) is y = 10

in this case we get:

P(0, 10) = 25*0 + 45*10 = 450

As expected, here is the actual maximum for the given restrictions.

For the minimum, we just need to take the two lowest possible values of x and y, which are the two given by the equalities on:

x≥0

y≥0

The smallest values are:

x = 0

y = 0

Replacing that in the equation we get:

P(0, 0) = 25*0 + 47*0 = 0

So the maximum is 450 and the minimum is 0. (with the given restrictions)

Sum of 8:

2 + 6, 3 + 5, 4 +4, 5 + 3, 6 + 2 - 5 options

Sum of 12:

6 + 6 = 12 - 1 option

P(8 or 12) = 5/36 + 1/36 = 6/36 = 1/6

iii)

Prime numbers:

2, 3, 5 - 3 options of 6

Odd numbers:

Which sequence is generated by the function f(n + 1) = f(n) – 2 for f(1) = 10?

Answers

Answer: The sequence generated is 10, 8, 6, 4, 2, ...

This sequence is arithmetic with starting term 10 and common difference -2. This means we add -2 to each term to get the next one (same as subtracting 2 from each term). This common difference is directly connected to the -2 from the recursive rule f(n+1) = f(n)-2

Whatever the nth term f(n) is, we subtract off 2 to get f(n)-2 to get the f(n+1) term, which is right after the nth term.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(1)=10

n=1

f(1+1)=f(1)-2

f(2)=10-2=8

n=2

f(2+1)=f(2)-2

f(3)=8-2=6

n=3

f(3+1)=f(3)-2

f(4)=6-2=4

so sequence is 10,8,6,4,...

In the diagram below of triangle PQS, S is the midpoint of PR and T is the midpoint of QR. If ST = 5x - 22, and PQ = 3x + 19, what is the measurement of PQ?

Answers

Answer:

PQ = 46

Step-by-step explanation:

The midsegment ST is half the length of the third side PQ , that is

ST = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] PQ , so

5x - 22 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (3x + 19) ← multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction

10x - 44 = 3x + 19 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

7x - 44 = 19 ( add 44 to both sides )

7x = 63 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = 9

Then

PQ = 3x + 19 = 3(9) + 19 = 27 + 19 = 46
