What is a system of linear equations?

A system of linear equations is a group of  equations having same number of variables and degree.

For the n number of variables n number of equations are required.

On the basis of number of solutions a system of equations can be classified as consistent and inconsistent.

Given that,

The price for  5 packs of paper and 3 packs of pens is  $36.60.

And, for 6 packs of paper and 6 packs of pens is  $53.40.

Suppose the price of one paper pack be x and of pens be y.

Then, the given case can be written in terms of equation as,

5x + 3y = 36.60         (1)

6x + 6y = 53.40         (2)

Solve the equations by multiplying equation (1) by 4 and (2) by 2 and then subtracting as follows,

2(6x + 6y) - 4(5x + 3y) =  2 × 53.40 - 4 × 36.60  

=> 12x - 20x = 106.80 - 146.40

=> -8x = -39.60

=> x = 4.95

Substitute x = 4.95 in equation (2) to get,

6 × 4.95 + 6y = 53.40

=> 6y = 53.40 - 29.70

=> y = 23.70/6

       = 3.95

Hence, the prices of one pack of paper and one pack of pens are $4.95 and $3.95 respectively.

Answers

Answer:

66 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the area of the rectangle by simply multiplying the sides that are complete and don't touch the triangle. That is equal to 60 cm.

To find the area of the triangle, you first have to find the sides. You can find the first side by subtract the top side of the rectangle from the bottom, which gets us 3 (12-9). Then subtract the left side (5) from the right side (9) (9-5), which gets us 4. That would mean that 3*4*1/2 is equal to 6. 6+60 is equal to 66 cm.

Determine the length of the rectangle if the area is 800 cm² and the breadth is 20 cm

Answers

Answer:

40 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as

A = lb ( l is the length and b the breadth )

Here b = 20 and A = 800 , then

l × 20 = 800 ( divide both sides by 20 )

l = 40 cm

[tex]1\frac{3}{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to determine the difference between the miles ran by Mia and Rashid.

[tex]2\frac{4}{5}[/tex]- [tex]1\frac{5}{10}[/tex]

Subtract the two whole numbers

divide each denominator by the least common multiple and multiply the figures by the numerator

A diving board is 10 feet above the surface of the water. At time t = 0, the board propels Chris upward at a rate of 12 feet per second and he enters the water feet first. The equation h = –16t^2 + 12t + 10 can be used to find Chris's height after t seconds. How long will it take Chris to return to his starting height of 10 feet?

Answers

Answer:

Chris will take 0.75 seconds to return to his starting height of 10 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of Chris be represented by [tex]h(t) = -16\cdot t^{2}+12\cdot t +10[/tex], where [tex]h(t)[/tex] is the height in feet and [tex]t[/tex], the time in seconds. First, we equalize the formula to a height of 10 feet and simplify the resulting expression, that is:

[tex]-16\cdot t^{2}+12\cdot t +10 = 10[/tex]

[tex]-16\cdot t^{2}+12\cdot t = 0[/tex]

Then, we simplify the expression by algebraic means:

[tex]-16\cdot t\cdot \left(t-\frac{3}{4} \right) = 0[/tex]

Roots of the polynomial are, respectively:

[tex]t = 0\,s\,\lor \,t = 0.75\,s[/tex]

First root represents the initial height of Chris, whereas the second one represents the instant when Christ returns to the same height above the surface of the water. Hence, Chris will take 0.75 seconds to return to his starting height of 10 feet.

m=( 1 - 3)/(0+3)

m = (-2)/3

m = -2/3

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Answers

Answer:

$1000$600$250

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent the third-place prize value. Then the first place prize has a value of 2t+500, and the second-place prize is 2t+100. The total value of the three prizes is ...

  t +(2t+500) +(2t+100) = 1850

  5t +600 = 1850

  5t = 1250

  t = 250 . . . . . . . . . . . third place prize

  2t +500 = 1000 . . . . first place prize

  1000 -400 = 600 . . .second place prize

The prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places are $1000, $600, and $250, respectively.

−2(x+8)+6=7(x−3) for x algebraically. If your answer is a fraction, write it in reduced, fractional form. Do NOT convert the answer to a decimal.

Answers

Answer:

x = 11/5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x - 16 + 6 = 7x - 21

5x - 21 = -10

5x = 11

x = 11/5

Answer:

x = 11/9

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(x + 8 ) + 6 = 7(x - 3)       {Use distributive property: a(b +c)= a*b +a*c) }

-2x + 8*(-2) + 6 = 7*x - 3*7

-2x - 16 +6 = 7x - 21          {add 2x to both sides}

       -10 = 7x + 2x - 21

       -10 = 9x - 21      {add 21 to both sides}

-10 + 21 = 9x  

     11   = 9x         {divide both sides by 9)

     11/9 = x

From a boat ont he lake, the angle of elevation to the top of a cliff is 11° 50'. If the base of the cliff is 1568 feet from the boat, how high is the cliff (to the nearest foot)

Answers

Answer:

328 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

From a boat ont he lake, the angle of elevation to the top of a cliff is 11° 50'. If the base of the cliff is 1568 feet from the boat, how high is the cliff (to the nearest foot)

Step 1

Note that

that 11°50' is just 11 degrees and 50 minutes

60 minutes = 1 degree,

thus 50 minutes = x degree

50/60 degrees

= 0.83°

Hence: 11°50' = 11.83°.

Step 2

We solve using Trigonometric function of tan

tan theta = Opposite/Adjacent

theta = 11.83°

Adjacent = 1568 feet

Opposite = Height of the cliff = x

tan 11.83° = x/1568

Cross Multiply

x = tan 11.83 × 1568

x = 328.429195 feet

Approximately = 328 feet

The height of the cliff is 328 feet
