Answers

Answer:

x= 2

y= -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Simultanous equation(elimination method)

STEP 1: multiply the number near x with the opposite equation.

in this case in equation 1, three is near x so u multiply it with the second equation.

2(3x-2y=4)

3(2x+3y=7)

you get 6x-4y=8

6x+9y=21

STEP 2: Change the sign ONLY IN SECOND equation to its opposite sign

6x-4y=8 <-------- 1st equation

6x+9y=21 <-------- 2nd equation

SO WE CHANGE THE SIGN IN SECOND EQUATION TO: -6x-9y= -21

STEP 3: Now do the elimination part and calculation

+6x-4y=8

-6x-9y= -21

___________

0x-13y= 13

NOTE: X IS ALWAYS CANCELLED IF ITS NOT THERE'S PROBABLY A MISTAKE

STEP 4: Solve for y

now that x is cancelled we have to solve for y.. to do this take the eliminated equation in step 3 and solve for y

-13y= 13

y= 13/-13

y= -1

STEP 5: We have officially solved for y.. now we need to bother about x.. to solve for x take the first original equation IN THE QUESTION and substitiute( replace) y value in equation

ORIGINAL EQUATION: 3x-2y=4

3x-2(-1)=4

3x-2=4

x= 6/3

x= 2

NOTE: YOU CAN ALSO TAKE THE SECOND EQUATION BUT ITS EASIER WHEN YOU TAKE THE FIRST ONE. EITHER WAY YOU MUST GET THE SAME ANSWER

Answer:

x=2, y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-2y=4

2(3x-2y)=2(4)

6x-4y=8

2x+3y=7

3(2x+3y)=3(7)

6x+9y=21

6x+9y-(6x-4y)=21-8

6x+9y-6x+4y=13

13y=13

y=13÷13

=1

3x-2y=4

3x-2(1)=4

3x=4+2

=6

x=6÷3

=2

Hence, x=2 and y=1.

An item is regularly priced at $40. It is on sale for 30% off the regular price. What is the sale price?

Answers

40$ - 100% (full price)

x$ - 70% (100-30=70%)

40 * 70 = 100x

2800 = 100x

x = 28

Answer 28$

or

40$ = 100%

then 1% = 40/100 = 0.4$

so 70% will be 0.4 * 70 = 28$

If you wanted to find the difference of 6/25 - 4/5, what common denominator should you choose? Why?

Answers

Answer:

Choose 1/25 as the common denominator

Step-by-step explanation:

1/25 is the lowest number that both existing denominators can be factored into.

6/25 would remain the same....  6/25

4/5 would become 20/25.....  multiply the top and bottom by 5

So 6/25 - 20/25 = - 14/25

Enter an equation in standard form to model the linear situation. A bathtub that holds 41 gallons of water contains 11 gallons of water. You begin filling it, and after 5 minutes, the tub is full.

Answers

Answer: In this equation, let "x" equal the rate at which the tub will be filled. The tub holds 32 gallons, which will be one-half of the equation. The tub already contains 12 gallons, so this will be half of the other side of the equation. The rate is "x" gallons per minute, and the time it required was 5 minutes, so this would be "5x". Placing all these parts together gives an equation of (32 = 5x + 12) gallons per minute dispensed.

a) What is the equation of the function

b) Compare the graph to f(x)=2(x+1)^2

Answers

Answer:
A) ((x+1)^2)-3

B) f(x) = 2(x+1)^2 is vertically stretched upwards by a factor of 2. In addition to this, it’s minimum value remains on the x-axis, due to there being no vertical translation like in the equation on part A.
So: The equation in part A has no vertical stretch, and does have a vertical translation, however it retains the same horizontal translation.

Explanation:
You can see the transformations by looking at the vertex and at least 1 other point.
Since it is a parabola we can start by saying:
f(x) = x^2
We also see a vertical translation of 3 units down:
f(x) = (x^2)-3
Lastly, we see a horizontal translation of 1 unit to the left:
f(x) = ((x-1)^2)-3

An amusement park sells child and adult tickets at a ratio of 8:1. On Saturday, they sold 147 more child tickets than adult tickets. How many tickets did the amusement park sell on Saturday?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  189

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between the ratio units is 8 -1 = 7.

The difference between child and adult ticket sales was 147 tickets, so each ratio unit stands for 147/7 = 21 tickets.

The total of the ratio units is 8+1 = 9, so 9 × 21 = 189 tickets were sold on Saturday.

__

That was 168 child tickets and 21 adult tickets.
