Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3a-2b=14 multiply by 3
9a - 6b = 42 (1)
4a+3b=13 multiply by 2
8a +6b = 26 (2)
sum up (1) and (2)
17a = 68
a =4
b=-1
Answer:
a = 4 b = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
13 = 4a - 3b (1)
14 = 3a + 2b (2)
(1) x 2
(2) x 3
26 = 8a - 6b (3)
42 = 9a + 6b (4)
(3) + (4)
68 = 17a
68/17 = 17a/17
a = 4
Substitute back in to original equation
14 = 3(4) - 2b
14 = 12 - 2b
14 - 12 = 12 -12 - 2b
2 = -2b
Divide by -2 both sides
b = -1
Check
3(4) - 2(-1)
12 + 2 = 14
A manufacturer is considering building a new and better mousetrap. She estimates the probability that the new mousetrap will be successful is . If it is successful, it would be able to make $120,000. Of course, she would make nothing if it were unsuccessful. The development costs for the mousetrap are $98,000. What is the expected value?
Answer:
$22,000 if successful
Step-by-step explanation:
So if She is able to make $120,000 on the trap, but it cost$98,000, just subtract $98,000 from $120,000 and you get $22,000 if she is successful she can expect that much
Answer:
22,000

what is the answer for 7(x+2) = 6(x+1)
Answer:
x= -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple math
Answer: x = -8
7(x + 2) = 6(x + 1)
⇔ 7x + 14 = 6x + 6
⇔ 7x - 6x = 6 - 14
⇔ x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
A banner company sells 5-foot banners to retailers for x dollars. The St. James Sign Shop marks them up 90%. Express the retail price at the St. James store algebraically.
Answer:
$1.9x
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Cost of banner = x dollars
Markup percentage at st. James store = 90%
Retail price at st. James store :
Initial cost + markup
Cost of banner + 90% of cost
x + 0.9x
= 1.9x
Hence, retail.price at st. James store is $1.9x
Jasmin's dog weighs 55 pounds. Her vet told her that a healthy weight for her dog would be less than or equal to 41 pounds.
Jasmin's dog can lose an average of 0.5 pounds every week. Write the solution to an inequality that describes all possible number of
weeks 2 for which her dog can be at a healthy weight.
Answer:
55-0.5x ≤ 41 (x will represent the weeks)
Step-by-step explanation:
i made x represent the weeks and we know that jasmin's dog can lose about 0.5 pound a week. and the base is 55 lbs since that is what jasmin's dog weighs. 55 minus all the weight that jasmin's dog will lose in a certain amount of weeks is the first part. then we know jasmin's dog has to be less than or equal to 41 lbs. so put that there with the less than or equal to sign.
Which is the equation of the parabola that
opens to the right, has a focus at (3.0), and
has a directrix at x=-3?
Answer:
The equation of the parabola will be:
[tex]\:y^2=12x[/tex]Step-by-step explanation:
The vertex (h, k) is halfway between the directrix and focus.
Find the x coordinate of the vertex using the formula
x = (x-coordinate of focus + directrix)/2
= (3-3)/2
= 0/2
=0
The y -coordinate will be the same as the y-coordinate of the focus.
so the vertex will be: (0, 0)
Finding the distance from the focus to the vertex
The distance from the focus to the vertex and from the vertex to the directrix is |p|.
Subtract the x coordinate of the vertex from the x -coordinate of the focus to find p .
[tex]p=3-0[/tex]
[tex]p=3[/tex]
Substitute in the known values for the variables into the equation
[tex]\left(y-k\right)^2=4p\left(x-h\right)[/tex]
[tex]\left(y-0\right)^2=4\left(3\right)\left(x-0\right)[/tex]
[tex]\:y^2=12x[/tex]
Therefore, the equation of the parabola will be:
[tex]\:y^2=12x[/tex]What are all the zeroes of the function (4x^2+9)(4x^2-9)=0

Write the equation of the line that passes through the point (-4, -9) and has a slope of 1/2
Answer:
The answer is y=1/2x-7
Step-by-step explanation:
y-y=m(x-x¹)
y-(-9)=1/2(x-(-4)
y+9=1/2x+2
-9 -9
y=1/2x-7

An ice chest contains 7 cans of apple juice, 6 cans of grape juice, 6 cans of orange juice, and 4 cans of mango juice. Suppose that you reach into the container and randomly select three cans in succession. Find the probability of selecting three cans of mango juice.
Answer:
4/1771Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given
sample space
7 cans of apple juice,
6 cans of grape juice,
6 cans of orange juice, and
4 cans of mango juice
Sample size= (7+6+6+4)
= 23
Step two:
Required
The probability of randomly selecting three cans of mango juice in succession
Note: we are selecting without replacement
let the probability of selecting three cans of mango juice be
the first selection is= 4/23
The second = 3/22
the third= 2/21
[tex]P(x)= 4/23*3/22*2/21[/tex]
