Answer 1

Answer:

x = 56

y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

"The sum of two numbers is 71."

x + y = 71

"The difference of the two  numbers is 41."

x - y = 41

Solve the system:

From the first eq.

x = 71 - y

Replacing this value in the second eq.

(71-y) - y = 41

71 - 2y = 41

71 - 41 = 2y

30 = 2y

y = 30/2

y = 15

From the second eq.

x - y = 41

x - 15 = 41

x = 41 + 15

x = 56

Check:

from the first eq.

x + y = 71

56 + 15 = 71

Given that 35.8 x 4.23= 151.434
write down a division sum with an answer of 423.​

Answers

Answer:

  151434/358 = 423

Step-by-step explanation:

Every product with non-zero factors can be written as an equivalent division relation.

  a·b = c   ⇒   a = c/b

Here, we have 35.8 × 4.23 = 151.434. This can be written as the equivalent ...

  4.23 = 151.434/35.8

We can multiply this by 100 to get a division relation with a quotient of 423:

  423 = 15143.4/35.8

If we want, we can move the decimal points another place to the right to get ...

  151434/358 = 423

Subtract both sides 3

[tex]y + 0= 8y + 0[/tex]

[tex]y = 8y[/tex]

Subtract both sides y

[tex]y - y = 8y - y[/tex]

[tex]0 = 7y[/tex]

Divide both sides by 7

[tex] \frac{0}{7} = \frac{7y}{7} \\ [/tex]

[tex]y = 0[/tex]

The world’s two highest dams are both in Tajikistan. The Rogun dam is 35 meters taller than the Nurek dam. Together they are 635 meters tall. Find the height of the Nurek dam

Answers

Answer: Rogun dam is 335m tall and Nurek dam is 300m tall

Step-by-step explanation:

I will use [tex]r[/tex] to represent the height of the Rogun dam and [tex]n[/tex] to represent the height of the Nurek dam.

The system of equations is as follows:

[tex]r+n=635[/tex]

[tex]r-n=35[/tex]

From the second equation, we can rearange it to be:

[tex]r=35+n[/tex]

Then take this new value of [tex]r[/tex] and plug it into our first equation to find [tex]n[/tex]

[tex](35+n)+n=635[/tex]

[tex]35+2n=635[/tex]

[tex]2n=600[/tex]

[tex]n=300[/tex]

This means that the Nurek dam is 300m tall, and the Rogun dam is 335m tall, found by pluggin the value into our first equation:

[tex]r+300=635[/tex]

[tex]r=335[/tex]

Answers

f(0) =  3

f(-2) = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= 4x^2 +3

1)   f(x) = 4x^2 +3

    f(0) = 4(0)^2 +3

    f(0) =               3

2)   f(x) = 4x^2 +3

      f(-2) = 4(-2)^2 +3

      f(-2) = 4(4) +3

The price of a train ticket from listen to cancel is normally do $146 however the Dre company is offering a special 55% of discount to children under the age of 16 what is the sale price of the ticket from Lexington to Kansas City

Answers

Answer:

80 or 80.3

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find what is 55% of 146

first set up your fractions. [tex]\frac{n}{146}[/tex] =[tex]\frac{55}{100}[/tex]

for the fraction on the left the denominator is the whole amount (146) and n is the unknown number

For the fraction on the right, the numerator is where the percent goes (55) and the denominator is always 100

Next you multiply using the butterfly method

you multiply across. 146 x 55, which is 8030, and 100 x n, which is 100n,

Now divide 8030 by 100

All you have to do is move the decimal two places, since there are two zero's, and you get 80.3

When you round 80.3 you get 80

hope this helps :)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given function f(x), we define the domain as the set of the possible inputs of the function and the range as the set of the outputs of the function.

We will see that both domain and range are the set of all real numbers.

D = (-∞, ∞)

R = (-∞, ∞)

Here we have the function:

The first thing we need to do is find the domain.

We start by assuming that the domain is the set of all real numbers and then we try to find some given values of x that cause some undefined operation, and then we remove these values of x from the domain.

Where this would be something like a zero in the denominator or something like that. We also could have specific restrictions to the domain that are applied in some specific cases (for example if x represents a length we should remove the negative values from the domain).

Here we can see that we do not have any indetermination, thus the domain is the set of all real numbers.

Now to study the range we need to see the general function, we can see that as x tends to negative infinity y will also tend to negative infinity, while when x tends to infinity y will also tend to infinity.

Then the range will also be the set of all real numbers.

the midpoint of AB is (4,8) and the coordinates of point A are (-6,4) what are the coordinates of point B?​

Answers

Answer:

  B = (14, 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

As you know, the midpoint is the average of the end point coordinates:

  M = (A +B)/2

Solving for B gives ...

  2M = A + B

  B = 2M -A

  B = 2(4, 8) -(-6, 4) = (8+6, 16 -4)

  B = (14, 12)

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line. ​

Answers

The slope- intercept of the line is y= x + 2. This is because for every time you go up or “rise” 1 unit you move to the right or “run” 1 unit. Therefore, 1/1 is just 1 so we can just leave this as x, however 1x would still work. Also, the line first touches the y-axis when x is 0 and y is 2. Therefore, the slope intercept is 2. So the slope intercept form of this line is still y = x + 2.

2 packets of cheese = 4.6
