Brent wants to solve this system of equations using subtraction 4X minus 5Y equals 11 and 8X minus 5Y equals 27 list the steps he should follow to solve the equations what is the solution

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Solution is x=4 and y=1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with 4 x-5 y=11

And 8 x - 5 y =27

Let's solve them using elimination method.

Subtract the equations to get rid the 'y' terms. Or, multiply the second equation and add them together.

4 x -5 y =11

-8 x+5 y =-27

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

-4x =-16

Divide both sides by -4.

x =4.

Now, plug in x as 4 into any of the given equations to find the corresponding y.

4(4) -5 y =11

16 -5 y =11

Subtract both sides 16.

-5y =-5

Divide both sides by -5

y=1

Consider the line x-2y=-1 What is the slope of a line parallel to this line? What is the slope of a line perpendicular to this line?

Answers

Answer:

slope of line that is parallel is 1/2

slope of line that is perpendicular is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

parallel lines have the same slope

perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite and reciprocal

x - 2y = -1

-2y = -x -1

y = 1/2x + 1/2

Answer:

  h ≈ 448.0 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant trig function is the one that relates adjacent side length, opposite side length, and angle:

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

Solving for the adjacent side length, we get ...

  Adjacent = Opposite/Tan

For the two angles given, we want the value of the difference of the adjacent side lengths:

  168 m = h/tan(41.2°) -h/tan(52.5°)

Then h is found by dividing by its coefficient:

  h = (168 m)/(1/tan(41.2°) -1/tan(52.5°))

  h ≈ 448.0 m

You can spend no more than $100 on a party you are hosting. The cost per guest is $8. Write and solve an inequality that represents the numbers of guests g you can invite to the party.

Answers

Answer:

12 guests

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

We are told that the cost per guest is $8

let the number of expected quest be x

Hence the inequality is

[tex]100\leq 8x[/tex]

divide both sides by 8

x=100/8

x=12.5

Hence the number of guests should not be more than 12

The two objects are the same height, and the cylinder is just wide enough for the the box to fit inside with all 4 vertical edges of the box touching the inside of the cylinder. if the box of pasta fits 8 cups of rice, estimate how many cups of rice will fit inside the cylinder. Expalin or show your reasoing

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a box with a length of l, width of w and a height of h is given by the formula:

volume of the box = length * width * height = lwh

The volume of a cylinder with a height of h, and radius r is given by the formula:

volume of the cylinder = π * radius² * height = πr²h

Since the box and the cylinder have the same height and the cylinder is wide enough for the box to be placed inside, this means that the box has a volume greater than that of the cylinder. Hence:

If the box can take 8 cups, the cylinder would be able to take 10 cups.

Answers

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

3x + (8x + 15) = 180

Reorder the terms:

3x + (15 + 8x) = 180

Remove parenthesis around (15 + 8x)

3x + 15 + 8x = 180

Reorder the terms:

15 + 3x + 8x = 180

Combine like terms: 3x + 8x = 11x

15 + 11x = 180

Solving

15 + 11x = 180

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-15' to each side of the equation.

15 + -15 + 11x = 180 + -15

Combine like terms: 15 + -15 = 0

0 + 11x = 180 + -15

11x = 180 + -15

Combine like terms: 180 + -15 = 165

11x = 165

Divide each side by '11'.

x = 15

Simplifying

x = 15

x=15  Hope this helps :)

A baseball team had 70 players show up for tryouts last year and this year had 85 players show up for tryouts. Find the percent increase in players from last year to this year.

Answers

Answer:percent increase in players from last year to this year= 7.14%

Step-by-step explanation:

percent increase = (Increase  in number of players /Initial value of players Last year)  x 100

value of players for tryouts  last year = 70

value of players for tryouts this year = 85

Increase in tryouts = 85-70 =5

percent increase = 5/70 x 100

= 7.14%

A fair number cube has faces numbered from 1 to 6. When the number cube is rolled, the theoretical probability of it landing on a multiple of 3 is one over three.. What is the theoretical probability of the number cube NOT landing on a multiple of 3?

Answers

Answer:  2/3

Explanation:

The theoretical probability of landing on a multiple of three is 1/3

So the theoretical probability of not landing on a multiple of three is 1-(1/3) = 3/3-1/3 = (3-1)/3 = 2/3

We can think of 1/3 to mean "1 out of 3 times", while 2/3 means "2 out of 3 times".

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find this in two ways:

1. Finding the numbers that aren't multiples of three

2. Subtracting 1/3 from 3/3

Let's do both ways:

1. These numbers are multiples of 3: 3 and 6

This leaves these numbers: 1, 2, 4, 5

Since there is 4 numbers there we can divide 4/6, or that simplifies down to 2/3. So, the theoretical probability that the number cube does not land on a multiple of 3 is 2/3.

2. Now this is the easier way to do it. Since we know that the probabilities have to add up to 1, we can just subtract 1/3 from 3/3 (because 3/3 equals one and subtracting fractions needs the same denominator)

3/3 - 1/3 = 2/3

This once again shows that the probability of not rolling a multiple of 3 is 2/3.

Hope this helps!!

As a salesperson, you are paid $50 per day plus $3 per sale. This week you make $400. Define your variables then, write and solve an equation for the number of sales you made.

Answers

Answer:

16.7 sales

Step-by-step explanation:

As a salesperson, you are paid $50 per day plus $3 per sale. This week you make $400. Define your variables then, write and solve an equation for the number of sales you made.

Let the number of sales be represented by x

As a salesperson, you are paid $50 per day plus $3 per sale. This week you make $400.

The number of days in a working week = 5

Hence:

Total Amount made(A) = $400

Hence

$50 × 7 + $3 × x = $400

350 + 3x = 400

3x = 400 - 350

3x = 50

3x = 50

x = 50/3

x = 16.7 sales

Therefore, the number of sales you made = 16.7 sales

If m= -3, you would substitute -3 as m. So, 5(-3). Your answer would be -15!

So in this case, m = -3.

Annual sales for a fast food restaurant are $650,000 and are increasing at a rate of 4% per year. What is the annual sales after 7 years?

Answers

Answer:

Around $855,355.66

Step-by-step explanation:

In these type of problems, you'd use the following equation

[tex]Initial Value * (percentage)^{x}[/tex]

Since the revenue's increasing by 4% every year, you'd plug 104/100 in the percentage box. X is the ammount of times the percentage is applied, so it would be 7, since we're finding the sales after 7 years. Finally, 650000 goes into the initial value and yeah. After calculating, you'll get around $855,355.66

Stella is making 25 sundaes with mint, chocolate, and vanilla ice cream. 1 5 of the sundaes are mint ice cream and 1 2 of the remaining sundaes are chocolate. The rest will be vanilla. How many sundaes will be vanilla?

Answers

Answer:

Vanilla = 10 sundaes

Step-by-step explanation:

Total sundaes = 25

1/5 of the sundaes are mint ice cream

Mint ice cream = 1/5 of 25

= 1/5 * 25

= 25/5

= 5

Sundaes remaining = total sundaes - sundaes for mint ice cream

= 25 - 5

= 20 sundaes

Sundaes remaining = 20 sundaes

1/2 of the remaining sundaes are chocolate

= 1/2 of 20

= 1/2 * 20

= 20/2

= 10

Chocolate ice cream = 10

The rest will be vanilla

Sundaes remaining = 20 - 10

= 10 sundaes

Vanilla = 10 sundaes
