Becket needs to solve the system of equations using elimination.
-2x+4y=-2
(6x-y=28)
Which correctly describes the first step Becket should take?
A. Multiply each term in the 1st equation by -3
B. Multiply each term int he 1st equation by 3
C. Multiply each term in the 2nd equation by -4
D. Both B and C would work

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Multiply each term in the 1st equation by 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A is incorrect because multiplying the entire 1st equation by -3 will give you 6x - 12y = 6. This does not cancel with either x or y term in the second equation.B is correct because by multiplying the entire 1st equation by 3 will give you -6x + 12y = -6. The -6x term will cancel (or eliminate) the 6x term in the second equation.C is incorrect because multiplying the entire 2nd equation by -4 will give you -24x + 4y = -112. This does not cancel with either x or y term in the 1st equation.D is incorrect because C was proven to be incorrect.
Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Multiply each term in the second equation with 4

step 2

Add equation 1 to equation 2

step 3

make x subject of formula and obtain value of X

step 4

substitute value of X in equation 1 and find Y

A test requires two hours to attend five questions if a candidate spent 80 minutes on the first two question what fraction of the time did he spend on the remaining three question​

Answers

Answer:

He spent ⅓ of the time on the remaining three questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first figure out what the question gives us, and what we need to find.

Given:

Test - 2 hours, 5 questions

Candidate - 80 minutes, 2 questions

Find:

Fraction of time he spent on remaining three questions

Start by finding the fraction of time that he spent on the first two questions.

Set up an unit converter to convert two hours to minutes.

[tex]2$ hours($\frac{60\text{ minutes}}{1 \text{ hour}})=2\cdot 60\text{ minutes}=120$ minutes[/tex]

Let "x" represent the fraction of time the candidate spent on the first two questions...

[tex]x=\frac{\text{Amount of Time spent on First Two Questions}}{\text{Total Time}}\\x=\frac{80\text{ minutes}}{120\text{ minutes}}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{80}{120}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{8}{12}[/tex]

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

Let "y" represent the fraction of time the candidate spent on the remaining three questions...

[tex]y=1-\text{Fraction of Time spent on First Two Questions}\\y=1-\frac{2}{3}\\[/tex]

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

[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

He spent ⅓ of the time on the remaining three questions.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

height of fence post = 8 ftdiameter of fence post = 1 ft  ⇒  radius = 0.5 fttotal number of posts = 12π = 3.14

Surface area of a cylinder = 2πr² + 2πrh

⇒ SA of one fence post = 2 · 3.14 · 0.5² + 2 · 3.14 · 0.5 · 8

                                       = 1.57 + 25.12

                                       = 26.69 ft²

As there are 12 fence posts,

Total paint needed = 12 × 26.69

                                = 320.28 ft²

                                = 320 ft² (nearest whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

The value k in the equation ...

  g(x) = f(x) +k

represents a vertical translation by k units.

__

The vertex coordinates for f(x) and g(x) are ...

  f(x): vertex = (-3, -3)

  g(x): vertex = (-3, 5)

This means ...

  f(-3) = -3

  g(-3) = 5 = f(-3) +k = -3 +8   ⇒   k = 8

Answer:

See below ↓

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the x and y values.

Step 1 : Equate the y expressions.

The two equations have given different values for yTherefore by equating them, we can solve for x2x - 5 = -2/3x + 3

Step 2 : Convert fractions in the equation to whole numbers.

The value -2/3 is a fractionWe can make it a whole number if multiply throughout by the value of its denominator ⇒ 33(2x - 5) = 3(-2/3x + 3)6x - 15 = -2x + 9

Step 3 : Bring x terms to one side and constant terms to the other.

6x + 2x = 9 + 158x = 24x = 3

Step 4 : Solve for y by plugging the value of x into one of the given equations.

y = 2(3) - 5y = 6 - 5y = 1

PLEASE HELP! Match the steps to find the equation of the parabola with focus (-1, -8) and directrix y = - 12.

Answers

Answer:

3,2,1,6,5,4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps!!!

All the correct steps to find the equation of the parabola with focus (-1, -8) and directrix y = - 12 are,

1. 2p + (- 8) = - 12                       Find p

2. Since the focus is at - 1,        Find the x - coordinates for the vertex.

then, vertex is at - 1

3. y = - 8 - 2                              Find the x - coordinates for the vertex.

4. (- 1, - 10)                                Vertex coordinates

5. (x + 1)² = 4(-2) (y+10)              Write the formula for the parabola.

6. (x + 1)² = -8 (y+10)                  Simplify the formula.

Given that,

In a parabola,

Focus = (-1 , - 8)

And, Directrix =; y = - 12

The standard equation of a parabola is,

[tex]y = - p (x - h)^2 + k[/tex]

Where, (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.

Now, the Statement with reason to find the equation of a parabola is,

 Statement                                       Reason

1. 2p + (- 8) = - 12                       Find p

p = - 2

2. Since the focus is at - 1,        Find the x - coordinates for the vertex.

then, vertex is at - 1

3. y = - 8 - 2                              Find the x - coordinates for the vertex.

y = - 10

4. (- 1, - 10)                                Vertex coordinates

5. (x + 1)² = 4(-2) (y+10)              Write the formula for the parabola.

6. (x + 1)² = -8 (y+10)                  Simplify the formula.

If you subtract 10% from 40 you get 36… and that’s with no tax

$36 is the price after the discount but before tax.

What is Percentage?

percentage, a relative value indicating hundredth parts of any quantity.

Given that the store was offering a 10% discount.

The price on the tag was $40

We have to find the price after the discount but before tax,

The discount is 10% of $40, which is:

0.1 x $40 = $4

So the discounted price is:

$40 - $4 = $36

Hence, $36 is the price after the discount but before tax.
