Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

F = 36

G = 4

We know that The area is multiplied by the scale factor squared

F * (SF) ^2 = G

36 (SF) ^2 = 4

Divide each side by 36

36/36 (SF) ^2 = 4/36

(SF) ^2 = 1/9

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((SF)^2) = sqrt(1/9)

SF = 1/3

The scale factor is 1/3

The answer is 1/3 hope this helps :)

Janet saved $3500 in 2007. If each year after

3. Give two systems of equations that would be easier to solve by substitution
than by elimination. Then give two systems that would be easier to solve with
elimination. Finally, explain how you decide whether to use elimination or
substitution to solve a system.

Answers

Answer:These techniques for elimination are preferred for 3rd order systems and higher.  They use "Row-Reduction" techniques/pivoting and many subtle math tricks to reduce a matrix to either a solvable form or perhaps provide an inverse of a matrix (A-1)of linear equation AX=b.  Solving systems of linear equations (n>2) by elimination is a topic unto itself and is the preferred method.  As the system of equations increases, the "condition" of a matrix becomes extremely important.  Some of this may sound completely alien to you.  Don't worry about these topics until Linear Algebra when systems of linear equations (Rank 'n')  become larger than 2.

explanation Step-by-step explanation:ust to add a bit more information, "Elimination" Can have a variety of other interpretations.  Elimination techniques typically refer to 'row reduction' to achieve 'row echelon form.'  Do not worry if you have not heard of these terms.  They are used in Linear Algebra when referring to "Elimination techniques"

These techniques for elimination are preferred for 3rd order systems and higher.  They use "Row-Reduction" techniques/pivoting and many subtle math tricks to reduce a matrix to either a solvable form or perhaps provide an inverse of a matrix (A-1)of linear equation AX=b.  Solving systems of linear equations (n>2) by elimination is a topic unto itself and is the preferred method.  As the system of equations increases, the "condition" of a matrix becomes extremely important.  Some of this may sound completely alien to you.  Don't worry about these topics until Linear Algebra when systems of linear equations (Rank 'n')  become larger than 2.

 

Substitution is the preferred method for 2 equations in 2 unknowns.  The constants are unimportant other than having a non-zero determinant.  It is always easy to find multiplicative factors using LCMs of one variable or the other to allow substitution into the other equation:

 

Example:

 

4X + 5Y = 9

5X -  4Y = 1

 

Notice that 20 is a LCM of either the X or Y variable.  So multiply the first by 4 and the second by 5 and then adding the two (Y's will drop out allowing for substitution)

 

4(4X + 5Y = 9)

5(5X -  4Y = 1)  

 

Multiplying to produce the LCM factors:

 

16X + 20Y = 36

25X -  20Y = 5

 

Adding the equations

 

41X = 41

X = 1

 

Substitution into either equation yields

Y = 1

What is the value of y

Answers

Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that in the triangle, there are 3 values. 2 of them are y and 1 of them is unknown.

So, in order to find the value of the unknown number, they gave us an angle supplementary to the unknown.

Supplementary angles are angles that add up to 180 degrees. So the equation for that would be x+88=180.

By subtracting from both sides, we get x=92. So, the unknown angle is 92.

To solve for y, we have to do the same thing, but since we have 2 y's the equation will be 2y+92=180. (92 is the interior angle, aka the unknown one)

Solve:                                            -92 -92

                                                      2y=88

                                                      /2   /2

                                                       y=42

Hence, y is equal to 42.

The value of z in the equation (1/2)z = - 3/4 + (1/4)z is 3/2.

What is an equation?

An equation is written in the form of variables and constants separated by the operation of multiplication and division,

An equation states that terms in different forms on both sides of the equality sign are equal.

Multiplication and division do not separate the terms of an equation.

given, (1/2)z = - 3/4 + (1/4)z and we have to find the value of z or solve for z.

∴ (1/2)z = - 3/4 + (1/4)z.

(1/2)z - (1/4)z = 3/4.

(1/2)z = 3/4.

z = (3/4)×(2/1).

Anna drives 15,500 miles a year for work. On average, how many miles does she drive a week?

Answers

Answer:

206 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

People generally work 5x a week so.. (15000 / 52)

52 indicates the amount of weeks in a year.

In total, that is 288.4 miles a week. Now, we're assuming she doesn't work on the weekend so we divide 288.4 by 7. That is 41.2 miles a day. Now, you times 41.2 by 5 and your answer should be 206 miles a week.

298 miles. there is a total of 52 weeks a year so divide 15,500 by 52 to get miles per week
