What is the solution to this system of equations?

2/3x + y = 6

-2/3x - y = 2

A. (1, -1)
B. (0, 8)
C. infinitely many solutions
D. no solution

Answers

Answer 1
D. No solution since the two lines have the same slope. 
Answer 2
Final answer:

When the given system of equations is added together, it simplifies to '0=8', which is a contradiction. Therefore, the system of equations has no solution.

Explanation:

You can simply add the two equations together. Adding the two equations eliminates the variables x and y:

(2/3x - 2/3x) + (y - y) = 6 + 2

This simplifies to 0 = 8, which is a contradiction. Therefore, this system of equations has no solution. That means the correct answer is D. 'No solution'.

give the length and width in whole inches of three different rectangles that each have an area of 48 in. squared

Answers

To find the length and width of 3 different rectangles that have an area of 48 square inches, you can use the factor pairs that result in 48.

The reason is that to find the area of a rectangle you multiply two dimensions.

2 in x 12 in
3 in x 8 in
4 in x 6 in

On all these either one could be the length and the other the width.

A sample of 81 was taken from a population with a standard deviation of 45 kilograms. If the sample mean was 112 kilograms, the mean of any other sample of 81 will be within what range 99.7% of the time?

A. 97 kilograms to 127 kilograms
B. 102 kilograms to 122 kilograms
C. 92 kilograms to 132 kilograms
D. 107 kilograms to 117 kilograms

Answers

Sample size = n = 81
Population Standard Deviation = s = 45
Sample Mean = x = 112

Since, population standard deviation is known, we will use z distribution to find the confidence interval.

The critical z value for 99.7% is 2.968

So, the confidence interval will be:

[tex](112-2.968* \frac{45}{ \sqrt{81} }, 112-2.968* \frac{45}{ \sqrt{81} }) \\ \\ (97.16, 126.84)[/tex]

Rounding of to nearest integers the confidence interval will be 97 to 127.

So, option A gives the correct answer

Jamelia estimates the square root of 72 in the following way:
√72 = 2√36 = 2*6 = 12

(a) Explain why her reasoning is incorrect.

(b) Estimate the square root of 72 to the nearest tenth. Show your work.

Answers

Part a)
we have that
√72
√72-----> √(2*36)=√2*√36 is not 2*√36------> this is the error
√2*√36=√2*√6²-----> √2*(6)----> 6√2

alternative method
72 is equal to-------> 2³*3²
therefore
√72-----> √[2³*3²]----->√ 2³*√3²-------> (2√2)*(3)-----> 6√2

Part b)Estimate the square root of 72 to the nearest tenth

we know that
√2 is equal to 1.41
so
√72=6√2------> 6*1.41-----> 8.46----> 8.5

the answer Part b) is 8.5

Jerome bought a book on sale at the store. The sale price of the book was $8.96. Write and solve an equation to determine the regular price of the book to the nearest cent

Answers

Final answer:

The regular price of the book is $8.96.

Explanation:

To determine the regular price of the book, we can set up an equation using the sale price and the regular price. Let's say the regular price is 'x'.

So the equation becomes:

8.96 = x

To solve for 'x', we can simply state that the regular price of the book is $8.96.

which of the following functions is continuous between x=-3 and x=0? choices on attachment

Answers

When we say that a function is continuous between x = -3 and x = 0 it means that it exists for all values of x in between -3 and 0. Let's take a look at each choice individually:

A: f(x) = (-x + 1)/(x + 2)
Now we don't actually need to know what the graph of this function looks like to see which values it is continuous for, instead we should look at which values of x will make this function undefined - in this case that would be x = -2. The reasoning behind this is that a number divided by 0 would be undefined, so when we search for which value of x would make the denominator of the equation 0, we get:
x + 2 = 0
x = -2
Since x = -2 is within the interval [-3, 0] we cannot say the function is continuous over this interval

B: f(x) = -2/(x + 1)
Using the same method as above we get:
x + 1 = 0
x = -1
x = -1 is again within the interval [-3, 0] and so the function is not continuous within this interval

C: f(x) = 3x/(x - 2)
x - 2 = 0
x = 2
x = 2 is outside the interval of [-3, 0] and so the function is continuous within this interval and C is the correct answer.

Just for the sake of it however we can look at D as well:
D: f(x) = 1/(2x + 1)
2x + 1 = 0
x = -1/2
-1/2 is within [-3, 0] and so D is not continuous over this interval

Select from the drop-down menus to correctly answer the question. The owner's prediction is . Based on the samples, about of the books sold each week are self-help books.

Answers

The owner's prediction is incorrect.  About 23% of the books sold are self-help books.

34 out of the 150 sold in week 1 were self-help books.
34 out of the 150 sold in week 2 were self-help books.

This gives us 68 self-help books out of 300 books sold.

68/300 = 0.2267 ≈ 0.23 = 23%

Based on the samples, the owner's prediction of 30% is not correct; approximately 21.34% of the books sold each week are self-help books.

The bookstore owner predicts that 30% of the week's book sales are self-help books. To evaluate this prediction, we need to look at the number of self-help books sold in the samples provided for two separate weeks. In week 1, 34 out of 150 books sold were self-help books, which is 22.67%. In week 2, 30 out of 150 books sold were self-help books, which is 20%. To determine the average percentage of self-help books sold over the two weeks, we average these two percentages: (22.67% + 20%) / 2, which gives us 21.34%.

The interior angle measures of a triangle add up to 180°.

Make ∠A + B + C = 180.

x + (4x) + (5x - 13) = 180
Add all like terms.

10x - 13 = 180
Add 13 to both sides.

10x = 193
Divide both sides by 10.

x = 19.3

Now plug in x into m∠C, (5x - 13).

A college entry exam has 38 questions worth 200 points. The test consists of multiple-choice questions, x, worth 4 points each and essay questions, y, worth 10 points each. Which system of equations can be solved to find the number of multiple-choice questions on the test?

Answers

A system of equations is a set of equations to be solved by elimination or substitution.

There are no options listed in the question to choose from, but the equations should look like the following:

x= # multiple choice questions
y= # essay questions

QUANTITY EQUATION:
x + y= 38

VALUE EQUATION:
4x + 10y= 200

If we solved these two equations by elimination or substitution, we would find the number of multiple choice (x) and the number of essay (y) questions on the test.


ANSWER: x + y= 38; 4x + 10y= 200

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

Let's use the variables x and y to represent the number of multiple-choice and essay questions on the test, respectively.

The total number of questions is 38, so we can write:

x + y = 38

The total number of points is 200, so we can write:

4x + 10y = 200

This gives us a system of equations:

x + y = 38

4x + 10y = 200

We can solve this system of equations to find the number of multiple-choice questions on the test.

Answers

Answer:
equation is: width = area / length
width = 62.5 yd

Explanation:
For the first rectangle:
We have:
length = 75 yd and width = 60 yd
Therefore:
area = length * width 
area = 75 * 60
area = 4500 yd²

For the second rectangle:
We have:
area = area of first rectangle = 4500 yd²
length = 72 yd
area = length * width
width = area / length ............> The required equation
width = 4500 / 72
width = 62.5 yd

The answer is 11.25 ft. 
You have to use similar figures to work this out.
15 ft / 8 ft has to equal d ft  / 6 ft
So, you divide 15 by 8, which equals 1.875
You then times 1.875 by 6 = 11.25


The Distance, d, across the lake is 26.25 feet.

Similar Triangles

When two triangles have all the corresponding angles equal to each other, then their sides are in a ratio.

Given to us,

AB = 8 feet,

BC = 15 feet,

BP = 6 feet,

PQ = d,

AP = AB + BP = 8 + 6 = 14 feet

In the figure, [tex]\triangle ABC \sim \triangle APQ[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{BC}{AB}=\dfrac{PQ}{AP}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{15}{8}=\dfrac{d}{14}[/tex]

[tex]d = \dfrac{15\times 14}{8}[/tex]

[tex]d = 26.25[/tex]

Hence, the Distance, d, across the lake is 26.25 feet.
