Solve each system by substitution.
6) y = 2x - 3
y=-8x + 17​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are both equal to y set them equal to each other: 2x-3=-8x+17

Subtract 17 from both sides: 2x-20=-8x

Subtract 2x from both sides: -20=-10x

Divide both sides by -10: 2=x

Answer 2

Answer: x = 2 and y = 1

Step-by-step explanation: What we have here is a pair of simultaneous equations and we have been instructed to solve by using the substitution method.

The equations are

y = 2x - 3 ------(1)

y = -8x + 17 ----(2)

The y variable has a coefficient of 1 in both equations so we can start with either of equation (1) or (2).

From equation (1) y = 2x - 3. Substitute for the value of y into equation (2)

2x - 3 = -8x + 17

By collecting like terms we now have

2x + 8x = 17 + 3

(Remember that when a negative value crosses to the other side of the equation it becomes positive and vice versa)

10x = 20

Divide both sides of the equation by 10

x = 2

Having calculated the value of x, we can now substitute for the value of x into equation (1)

y = 2x - 3

y = 2(2) - 3

y = 4 - 3

y = 1

Therefore, x = 2 and y = 1.

Craig has the following data: 14,14,16,b,1 If the range is 25, what is the value of b?

Answers

Final answer:

The student needs to find the missing number 'b' in a data set, given that the range is 25. Since we know the smallest value is 1, adding the range to that value gives us the largest possible number, which in this case is 26. Therefore, 'b' must be 26 to achieve the specified range.

Explanation:

The student is asking about finding a missing value in a set of numbers given the range of the data set. To find the value of b, we must remember the definition of range: Range is the difference between the largest and smallest values in a set.

With the knowledge that the range is 25, and having the numbers 14, 14, 16, and 1, we identify 1 as the smallest value.

If we add the range to the smallest number (1 + 25), we get the largest number the set could contain, which is 26.

Since the other numbers in the set are all smaller than 26, b must equal 26 for the range to be 25.

The area of a rectangle is 33 m-, and the length of the rectangle is 5 m less than twice the width. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer:

x = 9.25

y = 13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

area = 33

let length be y and width be x

2x - 5 = y

area of rectangle = length * breadth

(2x-5)(x)=33

2x²-5x=33

2x²-5x-33=0

solving quadratic equation

x = 9.25

y = 13.5

In triangle ABC, a = 12, _ B= 25°, and
C= 45°. Find b.

Answers

The value of b is 5.4

Explanation:

Given that ABC is a triangle.

It is also given that [tex]a=12[/tex] , [tex]\angle B=25^{\circ}[/tex] and [tex]\angle C=45^{\circ[/tex]

We need to find the value of b.

The value of b can be determined using the law of sine formula, which is given by

[tex]\frac{a}{sin A} =\frac{b}{sin B} =\frac{c}{sin C}[/tex]

First, we shall find the angle of A.

Since, ABC is a triangle and all the angles in a triangle add up to 180°

Thus, we have,

[tex]\angle A+\angle B+\angle C=180[/tex]

  [tex]\angle A+25+45=180[/tex]

          [tex]\angle A+70=180[/tex]

                  [tex]\angle A=110^{\circ}[/tex]

Thus, the value of angle A is 110°

Let us substitute these values in the law of sine formula.

Hence, we get,

[tex]\frac{12}{sin \ 110^{\circ}} =\frac{b}{sin \ 25^{\circ}}[/tex]

Simplifying, we get,

[tex]\frac{12}{0.9397} =\frac{b}{0.423}[/tex]

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 0.423, we get,

[tex]\frac{12\times 0.423}{0.9397} =b[/tex]

Simplifying, we get,

[tex]\frac{0.5076}{0.9397} =b[/tex]

Dividing, we have,

[tex]5.4=b[/tex]

Thus, the value of b is 5.4

Answers

Answer:

31/30 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

finding the lowest common denominator for all three numbers. so 1/3 becomes 10/30, 1/5 becomes 6/30, and 1/2 becomes 15/30. 10/30+6/30+15/30=31/30

Answer:31/30

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to first find a common denominator. Which in this case is 30 so then you have to multiply by the same number for both bottom and top number of the fraction. 1/3 = 10/30 1/5=6/30 1/2=15/30. Then, you just have to add JUST THE TOP NUMBERS. You get 31/30 then divide that and i will leave that last part to you. Hope this helps!

What is the result when the number 22 is decreased by 9.1%?

Answers

Answer:

19.998

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the number and decrease (subtract)  by 9.1% of the original number

22 - 22*9.1%

Change the percent to decimal form

22 - 22*.091

22 -2.002

19.998

Final answer:

The result when the number 22 is decreased by 9.1% is 20.0, after calculating 9.1% of 22, which is 2.002, and subtracting it from 22 and rounding to the nearest tenths place.

Explanation:

To find the result when the number 22 is decreased by 9.1%, you can use the following steps:

Calculate the decrease amount by finding 9.1% of 22: (9.1/100) × 22.

Subtract the decrease amount from the original number: 22 - (9.1% of 22).

Using a calculator, the decrease amount is:
(0.091) × 22 = 2.002.

Then subtract this from the original number:
22 - 2.002 = 19.998.

However, we need to report our final answer to the nearest tenths place since that is the precision of the number 9.1%. Therefore, we round 19.998 to 20.0 to reflect the proper significant figures.

So, the result when the number 22 is decreased by 9.1% is 20.0.

Please round to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

11%

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error is the standard error times the critical value.

For a proportion, the standard error is:

σ = √(pq / n)

σ = √(0.132 × 0.868 / 1105)

σ = 0.0102

Since n is large, we can approximate the critical value using a normal distribution.  For 99% confidence, the critical value is 2.576.

The margin of error is:

ME = 0.0102 × 2.576

ME = 0.026

The confidence interval is 0.132 ± 0.026.  So the lower limit is 0.106, or 10.6%.  Rounded to the nearest whole number, that's 11%.

3 tan(θ) sin(θ) − 2 tan(θ) = 0

Answers

Answer:

Note from question, Let K be any integer.  Integer = 1

θ = πk

  θ = 3.142 * 1

  θ = 3.142 in three decimal places

θ = sin⁻¹ (2/3) + 2kπ

   θ = sin⁻¹0.667 + 2*1*3.142

   θ = 0.718 + 6.284

   θ = 7.002 in three decimal places

7.002 , 3.142

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the equation

3 tan(θ) sin(θ) − 2 tan(θ) = 0

The objective is to solve the equation.

First solve the equation in one period.

3 tan(θ) sin(θ) − 2 tan(θ) = 0

( 3sinθ − 2 ) tanθ = 0

Therefore, 3sinθ − 2 = 0    also   tanθ = 0

            =>  sinθ = 2/3        ,        tanθ = 0

Pick the right equation.

tanθ = 0

    θ = tan⁻¹ 0

    θ = 0

Using the unit circle, the period of tangent functions is π

Then the general solution of the equation is θ = 0 + πk ==> θ = πk

Pick the left equation.

3sinθ − 2 = 0

3sinθ = 2

sinθ = 2/3

    θ = sin⁻¹ (2/3)

As the sine function has period 2π

Then the general solution is θ = sin⁻¹ (2/3) + 2kπ

a rectangle is 68 inches by 42 inches. Find the angles that a diagonal makes with each side of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer:

90⁰

Step-by-step explanation:

Final answer:

The diagonal of the rectangles forms two angles with the sides, about 32 degrees and 58 degrees respectively. These are found using the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the diagonal, and then the arctan function to find the angles.

Explanation:

To find the angle that the diagonal makes with the sides of the rectangle, first calculate the length of the diagonal which can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem. In a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides. We can write this as: c² = a² + b². In this case, the length and width of the rectangle are the two sides (a and b) and the diagonal is the hypotenuse (c).

So a = 68 inches, b = 42 inches. Plugging these into our formula gives: c² = 68² + 42², so c = √[(68²) + (42²)] which approximates to 80 inches.

Next, calculate the angles using the inverse tangent (or arctan) function: θ = arctan(opposite/adjacent). In this case, the angles are = arctan(42/68) and arctan(68/42). This gives us angles of approximately 32 degrees and 58 degrees.

Two fire trucks on the ground on either side of a burning building are 1.3 miles apart. They each measure the angle of elevation to the fire, which are 58 degrees and 52 degrees. How far is each truck from the fire. Step by step explanation.. Please..Thanks..

Answers

Answer:

A-0.5777miles

B-0.7223miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be truck with 58°, B be truck with 52° elevation and C be the position of the fire. We know that the AB is 1.3 miles apart.

-Using sine rule, we find the length of AB and BC as:

[tex]\angle C=180-(58+52)=70\textdegree\\\\\frac{a}{sin \ A}=\frac{b}{sin \ B}=\frac{c}{sin \ C}\\\\\frac{1.3}{sin \ 70}=\frac{b}{sin \ 52}\\\\b=\frac{1.3 sin \ 52}{sin 70}=1.0902mi\\\\\\c=\frac{1.3 sin \ 58}{sin 70}=1.1732[/tex]

#Bisect angle C, and use sine rule again to find the lengths of bisected AB:

[tex]\frac{a}{sin \ A}=\frac{b}{sin \ B}=\frac{c}{sin \ C}\\\\\frac{1.0902}{sin \ 90}=\frac{x}{sin \ (90-58)}\\\\x=\frac{1.0902\ sin \ 32}{sin \ 90}=0.5777mi[/tex]

Truck B's position is calculated as 1.3mi-0.5777miles=0.7223miles

Hence, truck one is 0.5777miles and truck two is 0.7223 miles from the fire.
