solve this by elimination method
a+2b=5
3a-b=1

(plz show the whole process)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a=1  b=2

Step-by-step explanation:

a+2b=5

3a-b=1

Multiply the second equation by 2

6a-2b=2

Add the two equations together

a+2b=5

6a-2b=2

-------------------

7a    = 7

Divide by 7

7a/7 = 7/7

a=1

Now find b

3a-b =1

3(1) -b =1

3-b=1

Subtract 3 from each side

3-b-3=1-3

-b = -2

Multiply by -1

b=2

Answer 2

Answer:

please mark me brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:

a+2b=5...equ 1

3a-b=1...equ 2

3a+6b=15...equ 3

3a-b=1...equ 4

elimination method

3a has been cancelled

so 6b+b=7b

15-1=14

7b=14

b=14/7

b=2

substitute 2 for b in equ 2

3a-b=1

3a-2=1

3a=1+2

3a=3

a=3/3

a=1

a=1,b=2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-1 = 2x+2

or, x = 3

so each side, 3×3-1 = 8

4y-2 = 2y+6

or, y = 4

so each side, 4×4-2 = 14

Write the terms from highest power to smallest power

4x^2 -3x +5

The leading coefficient is the term in front of the highest power

4

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step here is to rearrange the terms of this polynomial in descending order:  x^2, then x, then x^0 (nothing that x^0 = 1):

4x^2 - 3x + 5

The "leading coefficient of the polynomial) is the coefficient of the highest x power, which here is x^2:  4.

What is the length of the dotted line in the diagram below? Round to the nearest tenth. *Will mark brainliest*

Answers

Answer:

The dotted line is 4.9

Step-by-step explanation:

The lower triangle is a right triangle so we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2

where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

2^2 + 4^2 = c^2

4+16 = c^2

20 =c^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(20) = c

The upper rectangle has a length of sqrt(20) and a height of 2

We can use the  Pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2

where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse  to find the  diagonal

2^2 + (sqrt(20))^2 = c^2

4+20 = c^2

24 = c^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(24) = c

4.898979486=c

Rounding to the nearest tenth

4.9 =c

Ms. Sutton recorded the word counts and scores of the top ten essays in a timed writing contest. The table shows her data.

A 3-row table with 10 columns. The first row is labeled essay rank with entries 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. The second row is labeled essay score with entries 9.7, 9.5, 9.5, 9.0, 8.9, 8.9, 8.5, 8.4, 8.2, 7.0. The third row is labeled word count with entries 324, 352, 337, 318, 299, 304, 290, 291, 278, 250.

How does the word count of an essay relate to its score in the contest?

Word count tends to decrease as the score decreases.
Word count tends to increase as the score decreases.
Word count tends to remain constant as the score decreases.
Word count has no apparent relationship to the score of the essay.
Unmark this question

Answers

Answer:

The word count tend to decrease as the score decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3-row table is presented as follows;

[tex]\begin{array}{ccc}Essay \ Rank&Essay \ Score&Word \ Count\\1&9.7&324\\2&9.5&352\\3&9.5&337\\4&9.0&318\\5&8.9&299\\6&8.9&304\\7&8.5&290\\8&8.4&291\\9&8.2&278\\10&7.0&250\end{array}[/tex]

The relationship between the values on the Word Count column and the values on the Essay Score column is that as the Essay Score decreases from the top down to the last row, the values on the Word Count generally decreases in the same manner (top down decrease)

Therefore, the Word Count decreases as the Essay Score decreases.

Answer:

In this question, since order doesn't really matter, we can consider cats and dogs to be the same thing.

So there are a total of 11 animals (5+6).

The first animal can be placed in 11 places.

The second animal can be placed in 10 places.

The third animal can be placed in 9 places.

.

.

.

The eleventh animal can be placed in 1 place. (the last spot, whatever that is)

So this question becomes fairly simple, it's just 11 factorial, which can be written as 11!, or 39916800.

Hi there!

[tex]\large\boxed{\frac{1}{5}, \frac{21}{5}}[/tex]

In order to set each equation equal to each other, we must have them both equal the same variable.

Rearrange the top equation to make it equal to y:

x - y = -4

Add 4 to both sides and add y to both sides:

x + 4 = y

Now, we can set both equations equal to each other:

x + 4 = 5(x + 1)² - 3

Begin solving by expanding the square binomial:

x + 4 = 5(x² + 2x + 1) - 3

Simplify:

x + 4 = 5x² + 10x + 5 - 3

x + 4 = 5x² + 10x + 2

Bring all terms to one side:

0 = 5x² + 9x - 2

Factor:

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

Set the other factor equal to 0:

5x - 1 = 0

5x = 1

x = 1/5

Plug in this value of x into an original equation:

1/5 - y = -4

1/5 + 4 = y

1/5 + 20/5 = y

y = 21/5

What is the area of a rectangle whose length is (5x + 2)cm and whose width is (3x + 1)cm?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle A = 15x^2 + 11x + 2\text{ cm}^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the length and width of a rectangle is given by:

[tex]\ell = (5x + 2)\text{ cm} \text{ and } w = (3x+1)\text{ cm}[/tex]

And we want to find the area of the rectangle.

Recall that the area of a rectangle is given by:

[tex]\displaystyle A = w\ell[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]A = (3x+1)(5x+2)[/tex]

Expand and simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned}A &= 5x(3x+1) + 2(3x+1) \\ &= (15x^2+5x)+(6x+2) \\ &= (15x^2)+(5x+6x)+(2) \\ &= 15x^2 + 11x +2 \end{aligned}[/tex]

Hence, the area of the rectangle is:
