Is (1, 10) a solution to this system of equations?

y = 9x + 1
y = x + 9

Answers

Final answer:

The point (1, 10) satisfies both given equations when substituting x with 1 and y with 10, therefore it is a solution to the system of equations.

Explanation:

To determine if the point (1, 10) is a solution to the given system of equations, we must substitute x with 1 and y with 10 into each equation and see if the equations hold true.

For the first equation y = 9x + 1, substituting gives us:

10 = 9(1) + 1
10 = 9 + 1
10 = 10

This is true, so (1, 10) satisfies the first equation.

For the second equation y = x + 9, substituting gives us:

10 = 1 + 9
10 = 10

This is also true, so (1, 10) satisfies the second equation as well.

Since (1, 10) satisfies both equations, it is indeed a solution to the system of equations.

Let's determine if the point (1, 10) is a solution to the given system of equations by substituting the x and y values from the point into both equations.
The system of equations is:
1. \( y = 9x + 1 \)
2. \( y = x + 9 \)
We are given the point (1, 10), where x = 1 and y = 10.
We'll substitute these values into each equation to check for equality.
First, let's substitute x = 1 and y = 10 into the first equation:
\( y = 9x + 1 \) becomes \( 10 = 9(1) + 1 \), simplifying to \( 10 = 9 + 1 \), which further simplifies to \( 10 = 10 \).
The first equation is satisfied with x = 1 and y = 10.
Next, we'll substitute x = 1 and y = 10 into the second equation:
\( y = x + 9 \) becomes \( 10 = 1 + 9 \), simplifying to \( 10 = 10 \).
The second equation is also satisfied with x = 1 and y = 10.
Since the point (1, 10) satisfies both equations, we can conclude that (1, 10) is indeed a solution to the given system of equations.

Point P is on segment AB such that AP:PB is 4:5. If A has coordinates (4,2), and B has coordinates (22,2), determine and state the coordinates of P.

Answers

The coordinates of P are (12, 2).

Solution:

Given data:

[tex](x_1, y_1)= A (4, 2)[/tex]  and [tex](x_2, y_2)=B(22, 2)[/tex]

P(x, y) is the point on the line segment AB.

AP : PB = m : n = 4 : 5.

That is m = 4 and n = 5.

Section formula:

[tex]$P(x, y)=\left(\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n}, \frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\right)[/tex]

[tex]$P(x, y)=\left(\frac{4\times 22 + 5\times 4}{4+5}, \frac{4\times 2 + 5\times 2}{4+5}\right)[/tex]

[tex]$P(x, y)=\left(\frac{88 + 20}{9}, \frac{8+10}{9}\right)[/tex]

[tex]$P(x, y)=\left(\frac{108}{9}, \frac{18}{9}\right)[/tex]

P(x, y) = (12, 2)

Hence the coordinates of P are (12, 2).

The prism is completely filled with 1750 cubes that have edge length of 15 ft.

What is the volume of the prism?

Answers

The volume of the prism = 14 ft³

Solution:

Number of cubes in the prism = 1750

Edge length of each cube (a) = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] ft

To find the volume of each cube:

Volume of each cube = a³

                                    [tex]$=\left(\frac{1}{5} \right)^3[/tex]

Volume of each cube [tex]$=\frac{1}{125} \ \text{ft}^3[/tex]

To find the volume of the prism:

Volume of the prism = Volume of each cube × Number of cubes

                                  [tex]$=\frac{1}{125} \ \text{ft}^3\times 1750[/tex]

                                  = 14 ft³

The volume of the prism = 14 ft³

[tex]\sum_{i=1}^{12}(3i-1) = 222[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given series is

[tex]\sum_{i=1}^{12}(3i-1)[/tex]

The first term is

[tex]f(1) = 3 \times 1 - 1 = 2[/tex]

The last term is

[tex]f(12) = 3 \times 12 - 1 = 35[/tex]

To find the number of terms in the sequence, solve,

[tex]3i - 1 = 35[/tex]

[tex]3i = 36 \\ i = 12[/tex]

The sum of the first i-terms of an arithmetic sequence is:

[tex]S_i = \frac{i}{2} (f(1) + f(2))[/tex]

We substitute the values to get;

[tex]S_ {12}= \frac{12}{2} (2+ 35)[/tex]

[tex]S_ {12}=6(37)[/tex]

[tex]S_ {12}= 222[/tex]

Solve the system of linear equations using elimination. −2x − y = 3 −9x − y = 17
A) (2, 1) B) (2, −1) C) (−2, 1) D) (−2, −1)

Answers

Answer:

x = -2 , y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{-2 x - y = 3 | (equation 1)

-9 x - y = 17 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:

{-(9 x) - y = 17 | (equation 1)

-(2 x) - y = 3 | (equation 2)

Subtract 2/9 × (equation 1) from equation 2:

{-(9 x) - y = 17 | (equation 1)

0 x - (7 y)/9 = -7/9 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by -9/7:

{-(9 x) - y = 17 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 1 | (equation 2)

Add equation 2 to equation 1:

{-(9 x)+0 y = 18 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 1 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by -9:

{x+0 y = -2 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 1 | (equation 2)

What is the volume of the triangular prism? Round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

the volume of the triangular prism is 1,185.6  in³

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of these triangular prism, we will, first, find the area of the triangle then multiply by the length

Area of triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × b×h

From the diagram ,the height of the triangle  is given to be 10.4 in and the base is given to be 12 in.

We will now proceed to insert the values into the formula;

                 Area of triangle  = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × b×h

                                              = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 12×10.4

                                             

                                                = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 124.8

                                                 =62.4

Area of triangle is 62.4 in²

From the diagram is given to be 19 in

Volume of triangular prism = area of triangular prism × l

                                              =62.4 in²   ×    19 in

                                              =1,185.6  in³

Therefore the volume of the triangular prism is 1,185.6  in³
