Find the solution of the system of equations.
−2x+9y= -17
-x - 3y = -1

Answers

Answer 1
x=4 y=-1 (4,-1) this is the answer
Answer 2

Answer:

x = 4 and y = −1

(4, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

I going to solve this system of equations by elimination. (You could also solve by substitution too.)

Multiply the first equation by 1, and multiply the second equation by -2.

1(−2x+9y= -17)

-2(-x - 3y = -1)

Becomes:  

−2x + 9y = −17

2x + 6y = 2

Add these equations to eliminate x:

15y = −15

15y/15 = -15/15

y = -1

Now we solve for x:

-x -3(-1) = -1

-x + 3 = -1

     -3   -3

-x = -4

x = 4

Hope this helped!

Item 11
A 10-foot ladder leans against a wall so that it is 6 feet high at the top. The ladder is moved so that the base of the ladder travels toward the wall twice the distance that the top of the ladder moves up. How much higher is the top of the ladder now? (Hint: Let 8−2x be the distance from the base of the ladder to the wall.)

Answers

Answer:

4 ft higher

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ladder is 10 ft long and its top is 6 feet high(above the ground), we find the distance of its base from the wall since these three (the ladder, wall and ground) form a right angled triangle. Let d be the distance from the wall to the ladder.

So, by Pythagoras' theorem,

10² = 6² + d²  (the length of the ladder is the hypotenuse side)

d² = 10² - 6²

d² = 100 - 36

d² = 64

d = √64

d = 8 ft

Since the ladder is moved so that the base of the ladder travels toward the wall twice the distance that the top of the ladder moves up.

Now, let x be the distance the top of the ladder is moved, the new height of top of the ladder is 6 + x. Since the base moves twice the distance the top of the ladder moves up, the new distance for our base is 8 - 2x(It reduces since it gets closer to the wall).

Now, applying Pythagoras' theorem to the ladder with these new lengths, we have

10² = (6 + x)² + (8 - 2x)²

Expanding the brackets, we have

100 = 36 + 12x + x² + 64 - 32x + 4x²

collecting like terms, we have

100 = 4x² + x² + 12x - 32x + 64 + 36

100 = 5x² - 20x + 100

Subtracting 100 from both sides, we have

100 - 100 = 5x² - 20x + 100 - 100

5x² - 20x = 0

Factorizing, we have

5x(x - 4) = 0

5x = 0 or x - 4 = 0

x = 0 or x = 4

The top of the ladder is thus 4 ft higher

4 is 2% of what number

Answers

Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: If 2% of a number is 4, then what is 100% of that number? Setup the equation.

4

2%=Y

100%

Step 2: Solve for Y

Using cross multiplication of two fractions, we get:

2Y = 4 x 100

2Y = 400

Y = 400

100 = 200

Two small planes leave Sacramento and LA, which are 380 miles apart, and travel toward each other. If one plane travel 30 miles per hour faster than the other plane and they meet in one hour, what are their respective speeds?
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Answers

Let the speed of the first plane be x then the speed of the second plane would be x + 30

The combined speed is x + x + 30 = 2x + 30

2x + 30 = 380

Subtract 30 from both sides

2x = 350

Divide both sides by 2

X = 175

The speed of the first plane was 175 miles per hour the speed of the second plane was 205 hour

A truth table is a way of organizing information to list out all possible scenarios. We title the first column p for proposition. In the second column we apply the operator to p, in this case it's ~p (read: not p). So as you can see if our premise begins as True and we negate it, we obtain False, and vice versa.

Find the area of the circle with a diameter of 12 m.

b 112.27 m2
C 113.04 m2
d 210.36 m2

Answers

Answer:

113.04 is our answer

Step-by-step explanation:

When finding Area the formula to do so is

radius x radius x pi

Sense we arent given radius we have to find out whats the radius but we must remember radius is just half of the diameter so since we are given diameter we will just do diameter divided by 2 so 12 ÷ 2 = 6 now that we have are radius we square it thats just a fancy way of saying multiply by itself so 6 x 6 = 36 now we multiply 36 with 3.14 So

3.14 x 36 = 113.04 So c is our answer!

A tax exempt employee benefit is usually more adavantages to the employee than a tax deferred benefit

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, it is, more or less. This is because with a tax-deferred account, tax savings are gotten when you make contributions, but when it then comes to a tax-exempt account, the withdrawals are instead free of tax during retirement.

In a tax-deferred account, you can make immediate tax deductions as much as the full amount of your intended contribution, but then, subsequent withdrawals from the same account will be taxed at the normal income rate.

On the other hand, tax-exempt accounts don't deliver a tax benefit, particularly when you contribute to the them, they provide tax benefits that comes much later

The school that Shawna goes to is selling tickets to a spring musical. On the first day of ticke sales the school sold 7 adult tickets and 7 student tickets for a total of $91. The school took ir $170 on the second day by selling 14 adult tickets and 12 student tickets. Find the price of an adult ticket and the price of a student ticket.​

Answers

Answer:

price of an adult ticket = a = $7

price of a student ticket = s = $6

Step-by-step explanation:

price of an adult ticket = a

price of a student ticket = s

7a + 7s = 91 (1)

14a + 12s = 170 (2)

Multiply (1) by 2

7a + 7s = 91 (1) × 2

14a + 14s = 182 (3)

14a + 12s = 170 (2)

Subtract (2) from (3) to eliminate x

14s - 12s = 182 - 170

2s = 12

s = 12/2

s = 6

Substitute s = 6 into (1)

7a + 7s = 91 (1)

7a + 7(6) = 91

7a + 42 = 91

7a = 91 - 42

7a = 49

a = 49/7

a = 7

price of an adult ticket = a = $7

price of a student ticket = s = $6
