What is the first step in solving this system by elimination?
2x + 10y = -20
-x + 4y = 28

A. Multiply the first equation by -2.

B. Combine the equations as they are.

C. Multiply the second equation by 2.

D. Multiply the second equation by -4.

Answers

Answer 1

You want to try and get rid of one of the variables ( x or y) so you would multiply the second equation by 2 which would make the x variable -2x which then when added to the first equation would eliminate the x variable.

Answer: c. Multiply the second equation by 2.

Four students are playing a multi-level video game. Leo is playing the first level in the game.
Ralph is six levels above Leo.
Mike is two levels below Ralph.
Don, who is playing the last level of the game, is five levels above Mike.
How many levels does the game have?

Answers

Answer:

10 levels

Step-by-step explanation:

Ralph is on level 7

Mike level 5

Don level 10 and is playing the last one of game

The game has 10 levels

Leo is playing the first level and Ralph is sex levels above Leo. This means that Ralph is playing level:

= 1 + 6

= 7

Mike is two levels below Ralph which means that Mike is playing level:

= 7 - 2

= 5

Don is playing the last level and is five levels above Mike which means that Don is playing level:

= 5 + 5

= 10

Don is playing level 10 which is the last level so the game has 10 levels.

Find the 27th term of the arithmetic sequence 15, 17.25, 19.5, 21.75,...

Answers

Answer:

The 27th term is 73.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the 27th term of the arithmetic sequence:

15, 17.25, 19.5, 21.75, ...

We can write a direct formula. Recall that the direct formula for an arithmetic sequence is given by:

[tex]x_n=a+d(n-1)[/tex]

Where a is the initial term and d is the common difference.

From the sequence, we can see that our initial term a is 15.

To find the common difference, subtract a term and its previous term. Thus, the common difference will be:

[tex]d=17.25 - 15 = 2.25[/tex]

Thus, our direct formula is:

[tex]x_n=15+2.25(n-1)[/tex]

To find the 27th term, let n = 27. Substitute and evaluate:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} x_{27} &=15+2.25((27)-1) \\ &= 15+2.25(26) \\&= 15+58.5 \\ &= 73.5\end{aligned}[/tex]

Thus, the 27th term is 73.5.

Number 13 I don’t get it

Answers

Answer:  1/2  (choice A)

===========================================

Explanation:

The two equations given to us are

ab = 3ab^2 = 18

Divide the second equation over the first equation and that would lead to b = 6

Notice how the 'a' terms divide to 1 and go away, i.e. cancel out.

The b terms divide to (b^2)/b = b

The right hand side values divide to 18/3 = 6

So that's how we end up with b = 6

-------------------------

Now if b = 6, then we can say,

ab = 3

a*6 = 3

a = 3/6

a = 1/2

Or we could say

ab^2 = 18

a*6^2 = 18

a*36 = 18

a = 18/36

a = 1/2

log_4(x + 3) + log_4x = 1

Answers

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

log_4(x + 3) + log_4x = 1

We know that loga(b) + loga(c) = loga(bc)

log_4(x + 3)x = 1

Raise each side to the base of 4

4^log_4(x + 3)x = 4^1

(x+3)x = 4

x^2 +3x = 4

Subtract 4 from each side

x^2 +3x -4 = 0

Factor

(x+4) (x-1) =0

Using the zero product property

x= -4  x=1

But x cannot be negative since logs cannot be negative

x=1

Answer:

A..  x = 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

log_4(x + 3) + log_4x = 1

log_4 x(x + 3) = log_4 4

Removing the logs:

x(x + 3) = 4

x^2 + 3x - 4 = 0

(x + 4)(x - 1) = 0

x = 1, -4.

We can ignore the -4 as there is no log of a negative.

Find the value of 9x + 4y, when x = 4 and y = -3.

Answers

Answer:

hope found the answers bye.

Step-by-step explanation:

9x + 4y - 4  =  0     

Putting in the x-value of -1, we get:

9(-1) + 4y - 4  =  0

Simplifying:

-9 + 4y - 4  =  0

Combining the -9 and the -4:

4y - 13  =  0

Getting rid of the -13 by adding 13 to both sides:

4y - 13 + 13  =  0 + 13

4y  = 13

Dividing both sides by 4:

y = 13/4

The exponent of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication.

For Example, In 8² , the 2 is the number of times 8 has to be multiplied. In this case It has to multiplied by itself 2 times, 8x8 = 64 so 8² = 64.
Another example is 9³ since the number above is 3 we have to multiply 9 three times, 9x9x9 = 729 which means 9³ = 729.

[tex]=\frac{81m^2n^5}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

One is given the following expression:

[tex]\frac{(3m^-^1n^2)^4}{(2m^-^2n)^3}[/tex]

Simplify, distribute the exponent outside of the parenthesis by the terms inside of it. Remember, when a value that already has an exponent is raised to another exponent, the equivalent of these two values is multiplying the exponents together. Use this property here:

[tex]=\frac{(3m^-^1n^2)^4}{(2m^-^2n)^3}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{3^4m^(^-^1^)^(^4^)n^(^2^)^(^4^)}{2^3m^(^-^2^)^(^3^)n^3}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{81m^-^4n^8}{8m^-^6n^3}[/tex]

Now simplify this fraction. Keep in mind that a fraction is another way of representing the operation of division. When one wants to divide terms raised to an exponent, one must make sure that these terms have a like base. Then one will subtract the exponents from each other. Do this step with terms that have a variable base:

[tex]=\frac{81m^-^4n^8}{8m^-^6n^3}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{81m^(^-^4^)^-^(^-^6^)n^(^8^)^-^(^3^)}{8}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{81m^-^4^+^6n^8^-^3}{8}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{81m^2n^5}{8}[/tex]

Amy has four more 20c coins than 5c coins. The total value of all her 20c and 5c is $3.80. How many 5c coins does Amy have?

Answers

Answer:

Amy has 12 5¢ coins

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent 20¢ coins and y represent 5¢ coins.

Amy has four more 20¢ coins than 5¢ coins. Hence:

[tex]x=y+4[/tex]

And the total value of all her coins is $3.80. Thus:

[tex]0.2x+0.05y=3.8[/tex]

This yields a system of equations:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{cases} x=y+4 \\ 0.2x+0.05y=3.8\end{cases}[/tex]

We can solve by substitution. Substitute the first equation into the first:

[tex]\displaystyle 0.2(y+4)+0.05y=3.8[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]\displaystyle 0.2y+0.8+0.05y=3.8[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]\displaystyle 0.25y = 3[/tex]

And divide both sides by 0.25. Hence:

[tex]y=12[/tex]

Thus, Amy has 12 5¢ coins.

Using the first equation:

[tex]x=y+4[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]x=(12)+4=16[/tex]

Thus, Amy has 16 20¢ coins.

In conclusion, Amy has 12 5¢ coins and 16 20¢ coins.
