Solve the following system of equations using elimination by multiplication.
Answers
If the given equations are indeed
[tex]\begin{cases}x-\frac4{5y} = 9\frac45 \\ -14x - 4y = -46\end{cases}[/tex]
we can solve by substitution. Solve the second equation for x :
[tex]-14x - 4y = -46[/tex]
[tex]\implies 7x + 2y = 23[/tex]
[tex]\implies7x = 23 - 2y[/tex]
[tex]\implies x = (23 - 2y)/7[/tex]
Substitute this into the first equation and solve for y :
[tex]\dfrac{23-2y}7 - \dfrac4{5y} = 9\dfrac45[/tex]
On the right side, write the mixed number as an improper fraction:
[tex]9 + \dfrac45 = \dfrac{45}5 + \dfrac45 = \dfrac{45+4}5 = \dfrac{49}5[/tex]
[tex]\implies \dfrac{23-2y}7 - \dfrac4{5y} = \dfrac{49}5[/tex]
Multiply both sides of this equation by 35y (the LCM of the denominator of all three fractions)
[tex]35y \times \dfrac{23-2y}7 - 35y \times \dfrac4{5y} = 35y \times \dfrac{49}5[/tex]
[tex]5y\times(23-2y) - 7\times4 = 7y \times 49[/tex]
[tex]115y - 10y^2 - 28 = 343y[/tex]
[tex]10y^2 + 228y + 28 = 0[/tex]
[tex]5y^2 + 114y + 14 = 0[/tex]
To solve the quadratic, I'll complete the square :
[tex]5\left(y^2 + \dfrac{114}5y\right) + 14 = 0[/tex]
[tex]5\left(\left(y + \dfrac{57}5\right)^2 - \left(\dfrac{57}5\right)^2 \right) + 14 = 0[/tex]
[tex]5\left(y + \dfrac{57}5\right)^2 - \dfrac{57^2}5 + 14 = 0[/tex]
[tex]5\left(y + \dfrac{57}5\right)^2 = -\dfrac{3179}5[/tex]
This system has no real solutions since the square of any real number must be positive.
If we allow complex numbers, we can continue solving to end up with two complex solutions for y,
[tex]\left(y + \dfrac{57}5\right)^2 = -\dfrac{3179}{25}[/tex]
[tex]y + \dfrac{57}5 = \pm i \sqrt{\dfrac{3179}{25}}[/tex]
[tex]y = -\dfrac{57}5 \pm i\dfrac{17\sqrt{11}}5[/tex]
and we can go on to solve for x.
Hence my comment; I suspect you meant to write the system
[tex]\begin{cases}x-\frac45 y = 9\frac45 \\ -14x - 4y = -46\end{cases}[/tex]
because its solution is far simpler. Multiplying through the first equation by 5 gives
[tex]5\times x - 5 \times \dfrac45 y = 5 \times 9\dfrac45[/tex]
[tex]\implies 5x - 4y = 49[/tex]
(since we know 9 + 4/5 = 49/5)
Meanwhile, multiplying through the second equation by -1 gives
[tex]-1 \times (-14x) + (-1) \times (-4y) = -1 \times (-46)[/tex]
[tex]\implies 14x + 4y = 46[/tex]
So if we combine the two equations, we can eliminate y and solve for x :
[tex](5x - 4y) + (14x + 4y) = 49 + 46[/tex]
[tex]\implies 19x = 95[/tex]
[tex]\implies \boxed{x = 5}[/tex]
and solving for y gives
[tex]14x + 4y = 46[/tex]
[tex]\implies 70 + 4y = 46[/tex]
[tex]\implies 4y = -24[/tex]
[tex]\implies \boxed{y = -6}[/tex]

Find the measure of the angle x to the nearest tenth. Question 7 options: 33. 5° 56. 5° 28. 9° 44. 3°.
Answers
The question is an illustration of right-angled triangles
The approximated value of x is 33.5 degrees
The given parameters are:
[tex]\theta = x[/tex]
[tex]Hypotenuse = 58[/tex]
[tex]Opposite = 32[/tex]
To determine the measure of angle x, we simply make use of the following sine ratio.
[tex]\sin(\theta) = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\sin(x) = \frac{32}{58}[/tex]
[tex]\sin(x) = 0.5517[/tex]
Take arc sine of both sides
[tex]x = \sin^{-1}(0.5517)[/tex]
This gives
[tex]x = 33.5[/tex]
Hence, the approximated value of x is 33.5 degrees

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Problem 1
To solve this problem, we only have to combine like terms. What are the like terms in this problem? Well, we have two x-terms (-10x and 8x) and two integers, or constants (1 and -4). So, let's rearrange the expression and then combine those terms.
-10x + 8x + 1 - 4
-2x - 3
Problem 2
This expression is a little more complicated since we have to distribute a 2 onto the two terms in the parentheses.
2(1 - a) - 4
2(1) - 2(a) - 4
2 - 2a - 4
Next, we can combine like terms.
-2a + 2 - 4

the diagram shows 3 identical circles inside a rectangle. each circle touches the other two circles and the sides of the rectangle, as shown in the diagram. the radius of each circle is 32mm. work out the area of the rectangle. give your answer correct to 3 significant figures.
Answers
Answer:
2640mm
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm assuming you need the area of the rectangle which the circles don't take up.
First, to find the area of the whole rectangle:
length x width
to find length:
the length is 1 circle, therefore it is the diameter of the circle, which is 32 x 2 = 64mm
to find width:
the width is 3 circles, which is the radius 6 times, so 32 x 6 = 192mm
So, area of rectangle = 64 x 192 = 12288mm
Now to find the area the circles take up:
area of 1 circle =
[tex]\pi \times {r}^{2} [/tex]
=
[tex]\pi \times {32}^{2} [/tex]
=
[tex]1024\pi[/tex]
As we have 3 circles, we multiply this by 3:
[tex]1024\pi \times 3 = 3072\pi[/tex]
Finally we subtract the area of the three circles from the area of the rectangle:
[tex]12288mm - 3072\pi = 2637[/tex]
As we need to round it to 3 significant figures, the answer is 2640mm

Can you prove that 4+2=5+1 is true without solving both sides of equation?
Answers
Answer:
Here you go...
Step-by-step explanation:
You have 4, and you have 5.
You have 4+2 and you have 5+1
So, you take a 1 from the 2 in the first problem, which gives u 4+1 that equals 5.
Therefore, if u put the first equation in a simpler form then you get 5+1 with the other equation. So it would look like 5+1=5+1.
FURTHERMORE, 4+2= 5+1 (because you simplify 2 into a 1).
So. 5+1 equals 5+1. (which is common sense... 5+1= 6.)

Group Work 2.6 Newton's Law of Cooling states that an object cools at a rate proportional to the difference between the temperature of the object and the room temperature. The temperature of the object at a time t is given by a function f(t)= alpha x^ prime prime +a where a = mc * pi temperature c = initial difference in temperature between the object and the room r = constant determined by data in the problem Suppose you make yourself a cup of tea. Initially the water has a temperature of 95 degrees * C ; 5 minutes later the tea has cooled to 65 degrees * C Problem: When will the tea reach a drinkable temperature of 40°C? Hint: Assume that the room temperature a = 22 degrees * C . First solve for r and then find tapplying the natural logarithm.
Answers
Answer:
ΔT = ΔT0 e^-K T
As I understand Newton's Law of Cooling
ΔT at any time is the difference between the temperature and the surroundings
Originally ΔT0 = 95 - 22 difference between 95 and room temperature
65 - 22 = 33 = 73 e^-KT where t is time to cool to 65 deg
ln (33/73) = -KT K = .794 / 5 = .159 where 5 is time to cool to 65 deg
40 - 22 = 73 e^-.159 T where t is time to cool to 40 deg
18 = 73 e^-.159 T
ln (18 / 73) = -.159 T
T = 8.8 min
It would take 8.8 min for the object to cool to 40 deg C
Suppose the object cooled from 95 to 90 deg, then
ln 68 / 73 = -.159 T and T = .45 min
Answer:
13.2 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
We cannot tell what your equation is supposed to be. Usually, the equation will have the form ...
f(t) = c·e^(kt) +r
where c is the initial temperature difference (95 -22 = 73) and r is the room temperature (22). The value of k can be found from the given intermediate temperature and time.
f(5) = 65 = 73·e^(k·5) +22
43/73 = e^(5k)
Taking the natural log gives ...
5k = ln(43/73)
k = ln(43/73)/5 ≈ -0.105852
__
We want to find t for f(t) = 40. Then ...
f(t) = 40 = 73·e^(-0.105852t) +22
18/73 = e^(-0.105852t)
t = ln(18/73)/-0.105852 ≈ 13.227
The tea will be drinkable after 13.2 minutes.
