7x + 6y = -1 ; -x + 2y = 3 with elimination

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x= -1, y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

First label the 2 equations.

7x +6y= -1 -----(1)

-x +2y= 3 -----(2)

Then choose which term you would like to eliminate. To eliminate the y term, multiply equation (2) by 3 such that the coefficient of y is 6.

(2) ×3:

-3x +6y= 9 -----(3)

Since the coefficient of y is positive 6 in both equations, subtract one equation from the other.

(3) -(1):

-3x +6y -(7x +6y)= 9 -(-1)

Expand:

-3x +6y -7x -6y= 9 +1

-10x= 10

x= 10 ÷(-10)

x= -1

Substitute x= -1 into (2):

-(-1) +2y= 3

1 +2y= 3

2y= 3 -1

2y= 2

y= 2 ÷2

y= 1

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

2nd method: eliminating the x term

(2) ×7:

-7x +14y= 21 -----(3)

Since the coefficient of y in equation (1) is a positive 7, while that in equation (3) is a negative 7, add the 2 equations together to eliminate the x term.

(1) +(3):

7x +6y -7x +14y= -1 +21

20y= 20

y= 20 ÷20

y= 1

Substitute y= 1 into (2):

-x +2(1)= 3

-x +2= 3

-x= 3 -2

-x= 1

x= -1

Mr. Gephart is traveling from his house to the history museum. How many meters will he travel to the museum? The distance from home to the history museum is six and seven-tenths kilometers.

Answers

Answer: 6700 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given, we are informed that Gephart is traveling from his house to the history museum and that the distance from home to the history museum is six and seven-tenths kilometers.

In order to know the distance in meters

that he will travel to the museum, we have to multiply the convert the distance given in kilometers to meters. This will be:

1000 meters = 1 kilometer

Therefore, 6 7/10km = (6 7/10 × 1000m)

= 6 7/10 × 1000

= 67/10 × 1000

= 67 × 100

= 6700 meters

He'll travel 6700 meters to the museum.

1a) y=-10/3x+90

1b) 20

1c) -18

2a) 2.8

2b) How much the heights of five basketball players vary from the average height.

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

Explanations:

1a) The trend line is linear, so we just need to find the slope and y-intercept to find an equation for it. Our y-intercept is (0,90), or 90, and our slope is -10/3. Our equation is now y=-10/3x+90.

1b) To find when x=21, we plug 21 into our equation where the x is. Now we do the math.

y=-10/3(21)+90 (plug in)

y=-70+90 (simplify by multiplying -10/3 by 21)

y=20 (simplify by adding -70 to 90)

Therefore, we can predict that when x is 21, y is 20.

1c) To find when y=150, we plug 150 into our equation where the y is. Now we do some more math.

150=-10/3x+90 (plug in)

60=-10/3x (subtract 90 from both sides

-18=x (divide both sides by -10/3)

Therefore, we can predict that when y is 150, x is -18.

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

2a) The mean absolute deviation (or MAD for short) of a data set is calculated as such:

Step 1) Find the mean (average) by finding the sum of the data values, then dividing the sum of the data values by the number of data values. In this case, we have the numbers 65, 58, 64, 61, and 67, which add up to 315. The data set has 5 numbers, so we divide our sum of 315 by 5 to get 63. Therefore, our mean is 63.

Step 2) Find the absolute value of the distance between each data value and the mean. In this case, we find out how far away each data value is from 63, our mean.  To do this, we subtract 63 from each number.

65-63=2

58-63=-5

64-63=1

61-63=-2

67-63=4

Some of these values are negative, but we're using absolute value so they all become positive. We now have a new set of values: 2, 5, 1, 2, and 4.

Step 3) Finally, we calculate the mean of our new set of values. In this case, we will add up 2, 5, 1, 2, and 4 to get 14 and divide by 5 to get our MAD of 2.8. Therefore, the MAD (and the answer to problem 2a) is 2.8.

2b) Now we just find out what the MAD means in this context. The MAD always is a measure of variance in a data set. In this context, it's describing how much the heights (in inches) of five people on a basketball team vary from the average height.

Hope this helps!

Which ordered pair is a solution of the equation? −7x+3y=2

Answers

answer:

(-2/7, 2/3)

step-by-step explanation:
-7x + 3y = 2
x = 0
-7(0) + 3y = 2
3y = 2
/3 /3
y = 2/3
y = 0
-7x + 3(0) = 2
-7x = 2
/-7 /-7
x = -2/7
(-2/7, 2/3)

Answer:

(-2/7,2/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

−7x+3y=2

Step 1: Add -3y to both sides.

−7x+3y+−3y=2+−3y

−7x=−3y+2

Step 2: Divide both sides by -7.

−7x/ −7 = −3y+2/ −7

x= 3/ 7 y+ −2/ 7

Answer:

x= 3/ 7 y+ −2/ 7

Let's solve for y.

−7x+3y=2

Step 1: Add 7x to both sides.

−7x+3y+7x=2+7x

3y=7x+2

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.

3y/ 3 = 7x+2/ 3

y= 7/ 3 x+ 2/ 3

Answer:

y= 7/ 3 x+ 2/ 3

2x+27+x+27=180

3x+54=180

3x=180-54

x=126/3

x=42

angle B=x+27

=42+27

=69 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

B=69

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles have a sum of 180. Set up your formula as

180=(2x+27)+(x+27)

180=2x+27+x+27

180-27-27=3x

126=3x

126/3=x

42=x

Now substitute 42 in place of x for Angle B

Angle B = x+27

B = 42+27

B=69

Check your work by doing the same for Angle A

Angle A = (2x+27)

A=2*42+27

A=84+27

A=111

Now add both together and if you did it right, your answer is 180

69+111 = 180

What is the length of the hypotenuse

Answers

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean's Theorem states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2, so 81 + 144 = 225, and 225 square rooted is 15.

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

So, to find the hypotenuse you must use the pythagreons theorm:

A^2+B^2=C^2

Now, we knowt hat A and B is the side lengths.(9 and 12)

The hyoptenuse is C.

So, lets plug in our values for A and B, and find C:

A^2+B^2=C^2

=

9^2+12^2=C^2

Now lets square each number except for C, since its a unknown value:

81+144=C^2

Now combine the 144 and 81:

225=C^2

Finally, square root both sides so C^2 becomes C:

15=C

So the answer for the hyotenuse is 15!

What is the equation of a circle with a radius of 6 and a center at ( -2 , 3 )?

Answers

The formula for a circle is:

(x-p)^2+(y-q)^2=r^2

The radius is given (r=6), as well as the centre of the circle (-2;3).

"p" and "q" represent the coordinates of the centre of the circle.

So it would look like this -

(x-p)^2+(y-q)^2=r^2

p=x-coordinate (-2)
q=y-coordinate (3)
r=6

(x-(-2))^2+(y-(3))^2 =6^2
(x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 36

***"^" means "to the power of"

Hope this helped~

Answer:

Solution given:

centre(h,k)=(-2,3)

radius(r)=6 units

we have

equation of a circle is:

(x-h)²+(y-k)²=r²

(x+2)²+(y-3)²=6²

(x+2)²+(y-3)²=36 is required equation of a circle.
