In order to solve the following system of equations by subtraction, which of
the following could you do before subtracting the equations so that one
variable will be eliminated when you subtract them?
4x – 2y=7
3.x – 3y = 15
A. Multiply the top equation by 15 and the bottom equation by 7.
B. Multiply the top equation by 1/3.
O C. Multiply the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by 4.
D. Multiply the top equation by-3 and the bottom equation by 2.

Answers

Answer 1

4x – 2y=7

3x – 3y = 15

we want to keep y by eliminating the x

so we will Multiply the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by 4.

we will get

12x - 6y = 21

12x - 12y = 60

we subtract the equations

12x - 6y - 12x - (-12y) = 21 - 60

6y = -39 and so on

Tamara wants to calculate the height of a tree outside her home. Using her clinometer, she measures the angle from 35 feet away from the base of the tree and gets an angle of 62°. Tamara's eye level is 5.5 feet above the ground. How tall is the tree?

Answers

Answer:

71.32 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We set up a trigonometric function to get height of tree

Distance ,x = 35 feet away from tree base

Angle = 62⁰ at eye level

Y = tan(angle) * x

= Y = tan(62⁰) x 35

Y = 1.881 x 35

Y = 65.82 feet

We add Tamara's height to the total height of the tree

= 65.82feet + 5.5 feet

= 71.32 feet is the height of the tree

The length of a rectangular room is 7 feet longer than twice the width. If the room's perimeter is 146 feet what are the room's dimensions?
Width - 22 ft: length - 51 ft
Width - 33 ft: length - 40 ft
Width - 27 ft: length - 61 ft
Width - 44 ft: length - 102 ft

Answers

Answer:

width- 22ft : length-51 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

if you add 22+22 its 44 +7 it will give you 51.

that is twice the width+ the 7 feet

The dimensions of the room will be 22 feet and 51 feet. Then the correct option is A.

What is the perimeter of the rectangle?

The sum of all the sides of the rectangle will be known as the perimeter of the rectangle. Let L be the length and W be the width of the rectangle.

Then the perimeter of the rectangle will be

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(L + W) units

The length of a rectangular room is 7 feet longer than twice the width. Then we have

L = 2W + 7

If the room's perimeter is 146 feet. Then the dimension of the rectangle will be

P = 2(L + W)

146 = 2(2W + 7 + W)

73 = 3W + 7

3W = 66

W = 22 feet

Then the length of the rectangle will be

L = 2 x 22 + 7

L = 44 + 7

L = 51 feet

The dimensions of the room will be 22 feet and 51 feet. Then the correct option is A.

Answers

Answer:

C: 5/11

Step-by-step explanation:

The top line over the numbers usually mean the numbers are recurring (occurring again and again)

So 0.45 with the dash over the 45 means 0.454545454545... (goes forever, hence why we use the dash)

To solve you convert each option to a decimal and find one that has 0.45 recurring.

A: 4/5 =0.8

B: 5/9 = 0.55...

C: 5/11 = 0.45...

D: 4/9 = 0.44...

Hence, our answer is C.

Answer: It means that the numbers the bar is over repeats. Answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

For example:

Example 1: [tex]0.123 \overline {4}[/tex] → The bar is only over the number 4 so only the number 4 repeats. [tex]0.123 \overline {4} = 0.123444444444444444444444...[/tex] with the number 4 repeating forever.

Example 2: [tex]0.12 \overline {34}[/tex] → This time the bar is over the 3 and the 4, so 34 and 4 repeat.  [tex]0.12 \overline {34} = 0.12343434343434...[/tex]

Example 3: [tex]0.1 \overline {234}[/tex] = 0.1234234234234234234...

Example 4: [tex]0. \overline {1234}[/tex] = 0.123412341234123412341234...\

To solve your problem, it will be easiest to use a calculator and test each answer.

Choice B: [tex]\frac{5}{9} = 0.55555556 \neq 0. \overline{45}[/tex]

Choice C: [tex]\frac{5}{11} = 0.454545454545... = 0. \overline {45}[/tex]

Kristen has been waiting all summer for her family's annual road trip. This year, they're headed to Yellowstone National Park. Kristen just saw a sign that said the park is 10 miles away, so the drive is almost over. If Kristen's father drives 50 miles per hour, how many more minutes will it take to reach the park?

Answers

Answer: It will take 12 minutes to the reach the park.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that, [tex]\text{Speed }=\dfrac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow\ \text{Time}=\dfrac{\text{Distance}}{ \text{Speed}}[/tex]

Given: Speed = 50 miles per hour

Distance needs to travel =  10 miles

Now, Time required to reach the park = [tex]\dfrac{10}{50}=\dfrac{1}{5}\text{ hour}[/tex]

Since 1 hour = 60 minutes

So, [tex]\dfrac15\text{ hour}=\dfrac15\times 60=12\text{ minutes}[/tex]

Hence, it will take 12 minutes to the reach the park.

Draw and label the dimensions of a scale drawing of Elena's bedroom, using a scale of 1 to 50. Elena's bedroom door is 0.8 m wide. How wide should the door be on the scale drawing? Explain how you know. Elena's bed measures 4 cm by 3 cm on the scale drawing. What are the actual measurements of her bed? How would I draw this out

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Actual length of rectangular bedroom = 5m

Actual width of rectangular bedroom = 3m

Scale = 1 to 50

Scaled length of bedroom = 5m/50 = 0.1m = 0.1 * 100= 10cm

Scaled width of bedroom = 3m/50 = 0.06m = 0.06 * 100= 6cm

If width of door = 0.8m wide

Scaled width of door : 0.8m/50 = 0.016m = 0.016 * 100 = 1.6cm

Bed measures : 4cm by 3cm on scale drawing ;

Actual bed dimension:

4cm * 50 = 200cm ; 200/ 100 = 2m

3cm * 50 = 150cm ; 150 / 100 = 1.5m

A metal worker has 57 grams of an alloy that is 37% gold. She also has a large supply of an alloy that is 17% gold. How many grams of the 17% gold alloy does she need to add to the 37% gold alloy to obtain an alloy that is 25% gold? Write your answer as a whole number or as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

85.5 grams of 17% gold alloy is added.

Step-by-step explanation:

A metal worker has 57 grams of an alloy that is 37% gold.

And let x grams of an alloy which is 17% gold.

Let's add them to get 25% of (x+57)grams of alloy.

So, we can set up equation as

57(37%) +x(17%) =(x+57)(25%)

Simplify and solve the equation for x.

21.09+0.17 x=  0.25 x+14.25

Subtract both sides 0.25 x

21.09-0.08 x =14.25

Subtract both sides 19.95

-0.08 x=-6.84

Divide both sides by -0.08

x=85.5 grams

Given B(17,5), C(11, -3), D-1, 2), and
E(x, -6), find the value of x so that BC || DE.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=-7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that:

Two lines are parallel if their slopes are the same.Two lines are perpendicular if their slopes are negative reciprocals.And two lines are neither (a.k.a intersecting) if they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

We want to find the value of x such that [tex]\overline{BC}\parallel\overline{DE}[/tex].

Therefore, the slopes of BC and DE must be equivalent.

So, let's find the slope of BC first.

BC)

We can use the slope formula:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Let B(17, 5) be (x₁, y₁) and let C(11, -3) be (x₂, y₂). Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{-3-5}{11-17}[/tex]

Subtract:

[tex]m=-8/-6=4/3[/tex]

So, the slope of BC is 4/3.

DE)

Let D(-1, 2) be (x₁, y₁) and let E(x, -6) be (x, y₂). Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{-6-2}{x-(-1)}[/tex]

We know that the two slopes must be equal. So, the slope of DE must also be 4/3. Substitute 4/3 for m:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{4}{3}=\frac{-6-2}{x-(-1)}[/tex]

Solve for x. Simplify the right:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{4}{3}=\frac{-8}{x+1}[/tex]

Cross multiply:

[tex]4(x+1)=-8(3)[/tex]

Multiply on the right:

[tex]4(x+1)=-24[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4:

[tex]x+1=-6[/tex]

Subtract 1 from both sides:

[tex]x=-7[/tex]

So, the value of x is -7.

And we're done!

Solve... 4x + 30 = -6(x - 2)
I got -4.2 but it's wrong!

Answers

Answer: x= -9/5   or x = -1.8

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 30 = -6(x - 2)   First apply the distributive property on the left side

4x + 30 = -6x + 12      Add 6x to both sides

+6x           +6x

   10x + 30 = 12     Subtract 30 from both sides

           -30    -30

10x = -18     Divide both sides by 10

 x = -9/5     or x = -1.8

Answer:

the answer is -1.8 if you want to use the decimal and -9/5 if you want to use the fraction

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 30 = -6(x - 2)

4x+30 = -6x + 12

4x + 6x = 12 - 30

10x = -18

divide both side by 10

x = -9/5 or -1 4/5 or -1.8
