What is the y-value of the solution to the system of equations {3x+4y=4 and 2x−4y=6?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: y = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the elimination method. When setting the equations up, you can see that the y values already cancel out. This makes it easy to find the x value.  

3x+4y=4                  3x+4y=4  

2x-4y=6     ----->  (-) 2x-4y=6

For the x value, you would get 2. 5x=10 therefore x=2.

Now that you have your x value, choose one of the original equations(either works). I chose 3x+4y=4. Now, substitute 2 into the x value then solve your equation for the y-value.

3x+4y=4   --->  3(2)+4y=4

3(2)+4y=4 then becomes 4y=-2 and when you isolate the variable, you get -1/2.

Find the midpoint and distance for each:
1. A(0, 0) & B(8,4)

Answers

The midpoint between two points A(0,0) and B(8,4) is (4,2)

The distance between two points A(0,0) and B(8,4) is 4√5

To find the midpoint of two points,

We need to take an average of both the x and y components of both points

Two points A(x ₁,y₁) and B(x₂ ,y₂) are (0,0) and (8,4) respectively

Let M be the mid-point M(x, y),

x = x₁+x₂/2

 = 0+8/2

= 8/2

= 4

Similarly

y = y₁+y₂/2

  = 0+4/2

  = 4/2

  = 2

So, the midpoint of the two points A(0,0) and B(8,4) is (4,2)

To find the distance between two points,

We need to take the square root of the difference square of x and y, which is

d² = Δx² + Δy²

d = √(Δx²+Δy²)

Δx = x₂-x₁

    = 8-0

   = 8

Δy = y₂-y₁

    = 4-0

    = 4

Thus,

d = √(8²+4²)

d = √(64 + 16)  

d = √80

d = 4√5

So the distance between the two points is 4√5

In the following diagram, a is parallel to b and m is parallel n.

m<2=x^2+5x
m<4=11x+16


Note: the diagram may not be drawn to scale.

Answers

The is a parallel to b and m is parallel n.

The values of x is -2 and 8.That both values not work in geometric problem.

Given that

a is parallel to b and m is parallel n.m∠2=x²+5xm∠4=11x+16

To find

The value of x.That both values of x are working with this problem.

So, according to the question

We have,

a is parallel to b and m is parallel n.

and the value of two angles m∠2 and m∠4.

m∠2=x²+5xm∠4=11x+16

From diagram we can see a is parallel to b and m is parallel to n.

So, we can say that

   m∠4 = m∠3    { they are vertical congruent angles } and

   m∠3 = m∠2    { they are congruent angles}

∴  m∠4 = m∠2 -------------(1)

Now, putting the values in equation(1)

So, will be get

                m∠4 = m∠2 -------------(1)

              11x+16 = x²+5x

  x²+5x - 11x-16 = 0

         x²- 6x-16 = 0  

    x²-8x+2x-16 = 0  

  x(x-8)+2(x-8) = 0

        (x-8)(x+2) = 0

If               (x+8) = 0

                      x = 8

And if        (x+2) = 0

In the cuboid, the line segment parallel to AD is BC as they both lie on same plane and are directed in same direction.

What are parallel lines?

Two lines are said to be parallel if they lie on the same plane and are directed towards the same direction.

Given in the question is a labelled cuboid.

From the definition of parallel lines, they should lie on the same plane. Therefore, we will eliminate EB and EH because they don't lie in the plane of AB. CD lies in the plane of AB, but is directed perpendicular to AB. BC is in the same plane in which AB lies and is also directed in the direction of AB.

Question in florida, 55% of adults live in a house, 25 of adults live in an apartment, 4.6% of adults live in a condo and the rest live on a boat. what percent of people live on a boat? write the equivalent decimal and fraction to represent the percent you solved for.

Answers

The percentage of people living on boat in Florida is 15.4%. The equivalent of this percentage to decimal is 0.154 and to fraction is 77/500.

55% live in a house, 25% live in an apartment, 4.6% in condo while the rest live on a boat. If all the percentages are summed up, they must be equal to 100%.

Let a% equals to the percentage of adult living on boat

55+25+4.6+a = 100

84.6 + a = 100

Collect like terms

a = 100 - 84.6

a = 15.4%

Therefore, the percentage of adult living on boat is 15.4%

To convert the percentage to decimal equivalence, one must divide it by 100%

15.4%/100%

= 15.4/100

= 0.154

To convert the percentage to fraction equivalence, one have to divide it by 100%

15.4%/100%

= 15.4/100

One has to make both the numerator and denominator of the fraction whole numbers, to do that one has to shift the decimal place behind the last digit, for a number without decimal point a 0 is added to the back of the number.

= 154/1000

The reason for that why it is using division property of equality we wneed to know what is division property of equality : It states that when both side of the equation is divided by a real number other than 0 then the quotients remain same . It can be written as following : if a,b,c are real numbers where a = b , c ≠ 0 then ac = bc

for example suppose we have two breads of same size . We cut each of them into halfs and give it to  our friends , if we measure the remaining portions we will see that we are left with same portions of bread .

A rectangular garden has an area of 3m - 7m - 6.
Use the dimensions from Part A to determine an expression that gives the perimeter of the garden.
Reminder: P = 2L + 2W.

Answers

The perimeter of the whole figure includes the sum of the side lengths and the value is -2 - 4m units

What are areas?

The area of a shape is the amount of space on the shape.

For most regular shapes, the area is the product of their width and the length

How to determine the expression for the perimeter of the figure?

The area of this rectangle is given as

Area = 3m - 7m - 6

Evaluate the like terms

So, we have

Area = -4m - 6

The common factor of 4 and 6 is 2

So, we have the following equation

Area = 2(-2m - 3)

The area of the rectangle is

Area = Length * Width

So, we have

Length, L = 2

Width, W = -2m - 3

The perimeter of the rectangle is calculated as

P = 2 x (L + W)

So, we have

P = 2 x (2 - 2m - 3)

Evaluate the like terms in the above expression

So, we have

P = 2 x (-1 - 2m)

Open the bracket in the above expression

So, we have

P = -2 - 4m

Hence, the perimeter of the whole figure is -2 - 4m units

The distance formula that would be used to find BC is, d =[tex]\sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}[/tex].

Thus, applying the distance formula, we have:

BC = √[(−4 − 8)² + (−2 − (−7))²]

BC = √[(−12)² + (5)²]

When making lasagna, Mr. Singleton uses 1 pound of sausage for every 3/4 of a pound of mozzarella cheese. For a dinner party, Mr. Singleton wants to make an extra lasagna with 1 pound of mozzarella cheese. How much sausage will he need?

Answers

Using ratio we can calculate that Mr. Singleton used approximately 1.33  pounds of sausage .

A ratio demonstrates how frequently one number is found within another. For instance, the ratio of oranges to lemons in a fruit plate would be eight to six if there were eight oranges and six lemons.

A ratio can therefore be thought of as an ordered pair of integers, a fraction with the first number in the numerator and the second in the denominator, or as the value represented by this fraction. Ratios of counts that are expressed in terms of (non-zero) natural numbers are rational numbers and occasionally natural numbers as well. The ratio of two numbers is a dimensionless number when they are measured using the same unit, which happens frequently. A rate is the product of two quantities that are divided by their respective units of measurement.

He uses 1 pound sausage for every 3/4 pound of cheese.

Ratio of sausage to cheese = 1 : 0.75 = 4 : 3 .

Now he uses 1 pound of cheese therefore let he uses x pounds of sausage.

Now using ratio:

x : 1 = 4 : 3

or , x / 1 = 4 / 3

or, x = 1.333..

or, x ≈ 1.33 pounds

Hence he uses 1.33 about pounds of sausage
