The suspect was spotted riding the swings earlier in the day. Each swing can hold a maximum weight of 500 pounds. In order to reach the maximum weight, you would have to double the weight of the suspect and add 20 pounds less than the weight of George. Write and solve an equation to represent the suspect's weight.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2y + ( x- 20)= 500

y= 520-x/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weight of George be x and the weight of the suspect be y .

The swing can hold a maximum of 500 pounds .

Twice the weight of suspect added with 20 pounds less than the weight of George equals 500.

2y + ( x- 20)= 500

or

2y+x- 20 = 500

adding 20 to both sides

2y+x -20 +20= 500+ 20

or

2y +x = 520

Subtracting x from both sides

2y+ x-x = 520-x

or

2y = 520-x

Dividing by 2 on both sides

y= 520-x/2

The suspect's weight is y= 520-x/2

Answer 2

Answer:

s = 260 - g/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Maximum weight swing can hold = 500 pounds

Let suspect's weight = s

George's weight = g

To reach maximum weight :

Double weight of suspect + (George's weight - 20)

Hence, equation:

2s + (g - 20) = 500

2s + g - 20 = 500

2s + g = 500 + 20

2s + g = 520

2s = 520 - g

Divide through by 2

s = 260 - g/2

Quadrilateral ABCD is translated to get quadrilateral A’B’C’D’. Vertex A is at (-5, 2), and vertex A’ is at (2, -2). Quadrilateral ABCD is translated blank. If vertex B is at (-6, 5), then vertex B’ is at blank

Answers

Answer:

vertex B' is at (1, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the rules of translation of a point

If the point (x, y) translated horizontally to the right by h units then its image is (x + h, y) ⇒ T (x, y) → (x + h, y)If the point (x, y) translated horizontally to the left by h units then its image is (x - h, y) ⇒ T (x, y) → (x - h, y)If the point (x, y) translated vertically up by k units then its image is (x, y + k)→ (x + h, y) ⇒ T (x, y) → (x, y + k)If the point (x, y) translated vertically down by k units then its image is (x, y - k) ⇒ T (x, y) → (x, y - k)

Let us use the rules to solve our question

Vertex A = (-5, 2)

Vertex A' = (2, -2)

→ The coordinates of the two points changed which means the

  quadrilateral is translated horizontally and vertically

∵ The x-coordinate of A = -5

∵ The x-coordinate of A' = 2

→ Which means it moves to the right, so use the first rule above

∴ the rule of translation is T (x, y) → (x + h, y)

∴ x → x + h

∵ x = -5 and x + h = 2

∴ -5 + h = 2

→ Add 5 to both sides

∴ -5 + 5 + h = 2 + 5

h = 7

∴ The quadrilateral is translated 7 units right

∵ The y-coordinate of A = 2

∵ The y-coordinate of A' = -2

→ Which means it moves down, so use the 4th rule above

∴ the rule of translation is T (x, y) → (x, y - k)

∴ y → y - k

∵ y = 2 and y - k = -2

∴ 2 - k = -2

→ Add K to both sides

∴ 2 - k + k = -2 + k

∴ 2 = -2 + k

→ Add 2 to both sides

∴ 2 + 2 = -2 + 2 + k

4 = k

The quadrilateral is translated 4 units down

→ Let us find B'

T (x, y) → (x + h, y - k) is the rule of translation

∵ B = (-6, 5)

∵ h = 7 and k = 4

∴ B' = (-6 + 7, 5 - 4)

∴ B' = (1, 1)

vertex B' is at (1, 1)

Quadrilateral ABCD is translated 7 units right and 4 units down. If vertex B is at (-6, 5), then vertex B′ is at (1, 1)

Three families bought food at the baseball game. The Smith family spent $16.50 on 3 hot dogs, 2 sodas, and 1 candy bar. The Patterson family spent $26 on 4 hot dogs, 4 sodas, and 2 candy bars. The Nguyen family spent $13.75 on 2 hot dogs, 1 soda, and 3 candy bars. Which of the following systems of equations could be used to determine the price of each item?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Price of

Hotdogs = x

Sodas = y

Candy bar = z

Smith family

Hotdogs = 3

Sodas = 2

Candy bar = 1

Total cost = $16.50

3x + 2y + z = 16.50

Patterson family

Hotdogs = 4

Sodas = 4

Candy bar = 2

Total = $26

4x + 4y + 2z = 26

Nguyen family

Hotdogs = 2

Sodas = 1

Candy bar = 3

Total cost = $13.75

2x + y + 3z = 13.75

The equations

3x + 2y + z = 16.50 (1)

4x + 4y + 2z = 26 (2)

2x + y + 3z = 13.75 (3)

Multiply (1) by -2

-2(3x + 2y + z = 16.50)

-6x - 4y - 2z = -33

-6x - 4y - 2z = -33 (1a)

4x + 4y + 2z = 26 (2)

Add (1a) and (2)

-6x + 4x = -33 + 26

- 2x = -7

x = -7/-2

= 3.5

x = $3.5

Multiply (3) by -4

-4(2x + y + 3z = 13.75) (3)

-8x - 4y - 12z = -55 (3a)

Add (3a) and (2)

-8x - 4y - 12z = -55 (3a)

4x + 4y + 2z = 26 (2)

-8x + 4x -12z + 2z = -55 + 36

-4x - 10z = -29

Substitute the value of x into

-4x - 10z = -29

-4(3.5) - 10z = -29

-14 - 10z = -29

-10z = -29 + 14

-10z = - 15

z = -15 / - 10

= 1.5

z = $1.5

Substitute values of x and z into (1)

3x + 2y + z = 16.50

3(3.5) + 2y + 1.5 = 16.50

10.5 + 2y + 1.5 = 16.50

12 + 2y = 16.50

2y = 16.50 - 12

2y = 4.50

y = 4.50 / 2

y = $2.25

Write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line y=(-1/5)x+9 and passes through the point (-2,-2)

Answers

Answer:

y = 5x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that if two lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals of one another.  Thus, given y = (-1/5)x + 9, the slope of any perpendicular is

           -1

m = --------- = 5

        (-1/5)

Starting out with the slope-intercept equation y = mx + b, we get:

-2 = 5(-2) + C, or C = 8

Thus, the desired equation is

y = 5x + 8

The equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line is y=5x+8.

Given that, the equation of line y=(-1/5)x+9 and passes through the point (-2,-2).

What is slope of an equation?

The slope formula is used to calculate the inclination or steepness of a line. It finds application in determining the slope of any line by finding the ratio of the change in the y-axis to the change in the x-axis.

If m is the slope of a line, then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is -1/m.

Now, slope =-1/5

-1/m = 5

Put m=5 and the point (-2, -2) in y=mx+c and simplify

That is, -2=5(-2)+c

⇒c=8

Substitute m=5 and c=8 in y=mx+c, we get y=5x+8

Therefore, the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line is y=5x+8.
