Write a system of linear equations for the problem below(you do not have to solve it) Twenty-six students attended the community service event. The number of girls was 4 fewer than twice the number of boys. How many boys attended the community service event?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of boys who attended the community service event = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]x[/tex] denotes number of girls and [tex]y[/tex] denotes number of boys.

Twenty-six students attended the community service event.

So,

[tex]x+y=26[/tex]

The number of girls was 4 fewer than twice the number of boys.

[tex]x=2y-4[/tex]

Put [tex]x=2y-4[/tex] in [tex]x+y=26[/tex]

[tex]2y-4+y=26\\3y=26+4\\3y=30\\y=10[/tex]

So,

Number of boys who attended the community service event = 10

find the value of x please help

Answers

using angle sum property

we get

110+35+(x+12)=180

(x+12)=180-145

(x+12)= 35

x= 35-12

x= 23

Answer:

Angles in a triangle are sum up to 180 degrees.

35 + 110 + (x+12)=180

145+x+12=180

157+x=180

x=180-157

x=23 degrees

Answers

Answer:

Given variables:

slope = 4/11

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, use delta y/ delta x

(4,6) (-7,2)

(2-6)/(-7-4)

(-4)/(-11)

slope = 4/11

Let m = slope

m = difference of y-values divided by the difference of x-values.

m = (2 - 6)/(-7 - 4)

m = -4/-11

m = 4/11

100 m

Answers

Answer:

514 m = width of the river to the nearest meter

Step-by-step explanation:

You must memorize the definitions of the trig functions and then these types of problems are easy.

You have a right triangle where the 100 m is the adjacent side to the 79° angle.  You are looking for the side opposite the 79° angle.  So, you need to use the tan function which is defined as opposite side/adjacent side

Let x = the length of the opposite side (width of river)

Tan 79 = x/100

100 tan 79 = x

x = 514 m = width of the river to the nearest meter

The tangent or tanθ in a right angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its base. The width of the river is 514.455 meters.

What is Tangent (Tanθ)?

The tangent or tanθ in a right angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its base. it is given as,

[tex]\rm Tangent(\theta) = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}[/tex]

where,

θ is the angle,

Perpendicular is the side of the triangle opposite to the angle θ,

Base is the adjacent smaller side of the angle θ.


As it is given that you walk 100 meters to the right of the stake and measure a 79° angle between the stake and the boulder. Therefore, using the tangent angle the width of the river can be written as,

[tex]\rm Tangent(\theta) = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}\\\\\\\rm tan(79^o) = \dfrac{\text{Width of the river}}{100\ meter}\\\\\\\text{Width of the river} = tan(79^o) \times 100 = 514.455\ meters[/tex]

Hence, the width of the river is 514.455 meters.

work out the equation of the line which has a gradient of 2 and passes through the point (1,4).

Answers

Answer:

y = 2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope (gradient) and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 2 , then

y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (1, 4) into the partial equation

4 = 2 + c ⇒ c = 4 - 2 = 2

y = 2x + 2 ← equation of line

Find the y-intercept of each line defined below and compare their values

Answers

Answer:

They are 8 units apart, and the y-intercept of line A is above the x-axis by 6 units, and line B is below the x-axis by 2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember your y-intercept has an x value of zero, so line B has a y intercept of (0,-2)

now let's find b in the original equation so

y - 8 = -2x - 2 so y = -2x -2 + 8, so y = -2x + 6

So line A has a y-intercept of (0,6)

They are 8 units apart, and the y-intercept of line A is above the x-axis by 6 units, and line B is below the x-axis by 2 units
