solve by substitution 3x+2y=-5, 2x-5y=-16

Answers

The solution to the system of equations is [tex]\(x = -3\)[/tex] and [tex]\(y = 2\).[/tex]

let's solve the system of equations using the substitution method.

Given:

1. [tex]\(3x + 2y = -5\)[/tex]

2.[tex]\(2x - 5y = -16\)[/tex]

Step 1: Solve one equation for one variable in terms of the other variable.

Let's solve equation 1 for [tex]\(x\):[/tex]

[tex]\[3x = -2y - 5\][/tex]

[tex]\[x = \frac{-2y - 5}{3}\][/tex]

Step 2: Substitute the expression for [tex]\(x\)[/tex]from step 1 into the other equation.

Substitute [tex]\(x = \frac{-2y - 5}{3}\)[/tex] into equation 2:

[tex]\[2\left(\frac{-2y - 5}{3}\right) - 5y = -16\][/tex]

Step 3: Solve for [tex]\(y\).[/tex]

[tex]\[ \frac{-4y - 10}{3} - 5y = -16 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ -4y - 10 - 15y = -48 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ -19y - 10 = -48 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ -19y = -38 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ y = 2 \][/tex]

Step 4: Substitute the value of [tex]\(y\)[/tex] into one of the original equations to solve for [tex]\(x\).[/tex]

Let's use equation 1:

[tex]\[3x + 2(2) = -5\][/tex]

[tex]\[3x + 4 = -5\][/tex]

[tex]\[3x = -9\][/tex]

[tex]\[x = -3\][/tex]

So, the solution to the system of equations is [tex]\(x = -3\)[/tex] and [tex]\(y = 2\).[/tex]

Monica is shopping for candy for her wedding and needs lollipops and gummy bears for a display she is making for the reception. Lollipops are $1 per pound and gummy bears are $0.75 per pound. She knows she wants to spend exactly $15 on candy. If she spent $9 on lollipops, which of the following is the number of pounds of gummy bears she purchased?

 6 8 9 12

Answers

the answer is 8 because 8 times .75 is 6 and 6 plus 9 equals 15

We have been given that she wants to spend exactly $15 on candy.

Also, she spent $9 on lollipops. It means she spent [tex]15-9= $6[/tex]  on gummy bears.

Also, we have been given that the cost of gummy bears are $0.75 per pound.

Thus, in 1$ she can purchase [tex]\frac{0.75}{6}[/tex] pounds of gummy bears.

Hence, in $6, she can purchase

[tex]\frac{1}{0.75} \times 6\\ \\ =8[/tex]

Therefore, she purchased 8 pounds of gummy bears.

The function f(x)=2^x and g(x)=f(x)+k.If k=-5,what can be concluded about the graph of g(x)?
the graph of g(x) is shifted horizontally
a.5 units to the left of the graph of f(x)
b. 5 units to the right of the graph of f(x)
c.the graph is not shifted horizontally from the graph of f(x)

Answers

The graph of g(x) will be the same as the graph of f(x) shifted vertically downwards by 5 units because k=-5 represents a vertical shift, not a horizontal one. There is no horizontal shift involved.

When considering the functions [tex]f(x)=2^x[/tex]and g(x)=f(x)+k, with k=-5, we look at how the graph of g(x) compares to the graph of f(x).

Since the value of k is negative, it implies that a constant is being subtracted from the function f(x). This means that the graph of g(x) will not be shifted horizontally, but rather vertically downwards by 5 units.

Therefore, option c is the correct answer: the graph is not shifted horizontally from the graph of f(x).

A person whose eye level is 1.5 meters above the ground is standing 75 meters from the base of the jin mao building in shanghai, china. the person estimates the angle of elevation to the top of the building is about 80º. what is the approximate height of the building

Answers

see the picture in the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that
 in the right triangle ABC
tan 80°=opposite side angle 80°/adjacent side angle 80°
tan 80°=BC/AC----->BC=AC*tan 80°-----> BC=75*tan 80°---> BC=425.35 m

the approximate height of the building=BC+eye level
the approximate height of the building=425.35+1.5----> 426.85 m

the answer is
the approximate height of the building is 426.85 m

The tangent or tanθ in a right angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its base. The height of the building from the ground is 426.85 meters.

What is Tangent (Tanθ)?

The tangent or tanθ in a right angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its base. it is given as,

[tex]\rm Tangent(\theta) = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}[/tex]

where,

θ is the angle,

Perpendicular is the side of the triangle opposite to the angle θ,

The base is the adjacent smaller side of the angle θ.

As it is given that the angle of elevation from the person's view is 80°, while the distance between the person and the base of the building is 75 meters, therefore, using the trigonometric function the height of the building top from the person eye level is,

[tex]\rm Tangent(\theta) = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}\\\\\\Tan(80^o) = \dfrac{\text{Height of the building}}{75\ meters}\\\\\\\text{Height of the building} = 75 \times tan(80^o) = 425.35\ meters[/tex]

Now, we know the height of the building top from a person's eye level, and we also know the person's eye level as well, therefore, the height of the building can be written as,

[tex]\text{Height of the building} = 425.35 + 1.5 = 426.85\rm\ meters[/tex]

Hence, the height of the building from the ground is 426.85 meters.

Adam charges 20$ to mow his neighbor's lawn every 2 weeks for the 18 weeks of grass growing season. he wants to but a new

Answers

Since Adam's expenses exceed his earnings, he will have a negative net earnings. Therefore, Adam will not earn any money this season. In fact, he will have a net loss of $7.50.

To calculate how much Adam will earn this season,  subtract his expenses from his total earnings.

Earnings per mowing session: $20

Number of mowing sessions in the grass-growing season: 18 weeks / 2 weeks = 9 sessions

Total earnings: $20 per session * 9 sessions = $180

Expenses:

Cost of the lawn mower: $165

Cost of gasoline per session: $2.50 per session * 9 sessions = $22.50

Total expenses: $165 + $22.50 = $187.50

To find Adam's net earnings, subtract his expenses from his total earnings:

Net earnings = Total earnings - Total expenses

Net earnings = $180 - $187.50

Net earnings = -$7.50

Since Adam's expenses exceed his earnings, he will have a negative net earnings. Therefore, Adam will not earn any money this season. In fact, he will have a net loss of $7.50.

Kite ABCD represents a softball field that is being built. If AC = 48 meters, what is the perimeter of the field? 40 meters 70 meters 140 meters 218 meters

Answers

The answer is 140. I have done this question before! I hope this helped!

Answer:

140 m

Step-by-step explanation:

A kite is a quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of adjacent sides that are equal in length.

The perimeter of the kite is the sum of the length of all its sides. So, the perimeter of kite ABCD can be expressed as:

[tex]\sf Perimeter = AB + BC + CD + DA[/tex]

As BC = AB and CD = DA, then:

[tex]\sf Perimeter = BC + BC + CD + CD\\\\Perimeter = 2(BC + CD)[/tex]

Therefore, to find the perimeter of kite ABCD, we need to determine the lengths of sides BC and CD.

The diagonals of a kite intersect to form two pairs of congruent right triangles, where the sides of the kite are the hypotenuses of these triangles.

in kite ABCD:

Diagonal AC = 48 mDiagonal BD = 18 + 32 = 50 m

The longer diagonal of a kite always bisects the shorter diagonal at a right angle.

Let M be the point of intersection of the diagonals. Therefore:

AM = MC = 24 m

Side BC is the hypotenuse of right triangle BMC, with legs measuring 18 m and 24 m, while side CD is the hypotenuse of right triangle CMD, with legs measuring 32 m and 24 m.

To find the lengths of sides BC and CD, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the two legs.

[tex]\sf BC^2=18^2+24^2 \\\\BC^2=324+576 \\\\BC^2=900\\\\BC=\sqrt{900}\\\\BC=30\; m[/tex]

[tex]\sf CD^2=32^2+24^2 \\\\CD^2=1024+576 \\\\CD^2=1600\\\\CD=\sqrt{1600}\\\\CD=40\; m[/tex]

Now we have determined the length of sides BC and CD, we can substitute them into the perimeter formula:

[tex]\sf Perimeter = 2(30+40) \\\\ Perimeter = 2(70) \\\\ Perimeter = 140 \; m[/tex]

Therefore, the perimeter of kite ABCD is:

[tex]\LARGE\boxed{\boxed{\sf 140\; m}}[/tex]

he walks 200m west and 125m north how far away is he from his starting point

Answers

If you draw a horizontal line then vertical line and then connect starting point to final point then you would get a right triangle.

So for this triangle, base is 200 m and height is 125 m. Our goal is to find the length of hypotenuse. We can use Pythagorean theorem.

(200)² + (125)² = c²

√( (200)² + (125)² ) = c

√( 55625 ) = c

235.850 ≈ c

Final answer: 235.850 m

A tennis player lands 25 out of 40 first serves in bounds for a success rate of 62.5%. How many more consecutive first serves must she land in bounds to increase her success rate to 70%.

Answers

She will need to make 10 more consecutive first serves until the number of serves in out of the total number of serves is equal to 70%.

Start with 25/40, then 26/41, 27/42, 28/43, 29/44, 30/45, 31/46, 32/47, 33/48, 34/49, 35/50 (70%).

The tennis player must consecutively land 10 more first serves in bounds to raise their success rate from 62.5% to 70%.

First, let's define the variables:

x = number of additional successful serves needed

40 + x = total number of serves after additional successful serves

25 + x = total number of successful serves after additional successful serves

We set up the equation with the desired success rate of 70%:

(25 + x) / (40 + x) = 0.70

To solve this equation, follow these steps:

Multiply both sides by (40 + x):

25 + x = 0.70 * (40 + x)

Distribute 0.70 on the right side:

25 + x = 28 + 0.70x

Isolate the variable x by subtracting 0.70x from both sides:

25 + x - 0.70x = 28

Combine like terms:

0.30x = 3

Solve for x by dividing both sides by 0.30:

x = 10

Thus, the tennis player must land 10 more consecutive first serves in bounds to increase her success rate to 70%.

The balance on Brent Tyson’s Discover card on December 1 is $205.84.

In December, he charges an additional $98.42 of purchases, has returns of $18.63, and makes a payment of $25.

If the finance charges are calculated at 1.5% per month on the unpaid balance, find the new balance on January 1.

Answers

Following the balance amount:
$205.84 + $98.42 - $18.63 - $25 = $260.63 
Brent Tyson would have a remaining balance of $260.63 for that month. With finance charges calculated at 1.5% per month of the unpaid balance, we calculate $260.63 + ($260.63 x 0.015) = $264.539. 

Hope this helps.

To find the new balance on January 1, we need to calculate the total balance after considering purchases, returns, payments, and finance charges.

Calculate the total charges:

         Total charges = Previous balance + New purchases − Returns

         Total charges = $205.84 + $98.42 − $18.63

         Total charges = $285.63

After the payment, ascertain the extra amount due:

         Unpaid balance = Total charges − Payment

         Unpaid balance = $285.63 − $25

         Unpaid balance = $260.63

Calculate the finance charges:

         Finance charges=Unpaid balance×Monthly interest rate

         Monthly interest rate = 1.5% = 0.015

         Finance charges = $260.63 × 0.015

         Finance charges ≈ $3.91

Calculate the new balance:

         New balance = Unpaid balance + Finance charges

         New balance = $260.63 + $3.91

         New balance = $264.54

So, the new balance on January 1 is approximately $264.54.

To calculate Brent Tyson's new balance on January 1, we first determine the total charges by adding new purchases and subtracting returns from the previous balance.

Then, we deduct his payment to find the unpaid balance.

Next, we calculate finance charges at a rate of 1.5% per month on the unpaid balance.

Finally, we add the finance charges to the unpaid balance to get the new balance.

After these steps, Brent Tyson's new balance on January 1 is $264.54.

This process ensures we account for all transactions and interest charges to accurately determine the updated balance on his Discover card.
