How to simplify equations

Answer:

1 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

When you are subtracting a negative number is is the same as adding a positive.  So the problem is really 5/8 + 7/8, since the denominators are the same, just add the numerators to get 12/8  divide the top and bottom by 4 to get 3/2 or 1 1/2, if I divide 3 by 2.

Snow reaches at a 15 inches after 16 hours. and 8 inches melt in next 6 hours.

According to the statement

we have a given that there was 1 inch snow on the ground before the snowstorm starts.

then snow fell at constant rate of 3 inches every 2 hours until the snow level reaches at 12 inch had fallen

It means after that there was 13 inch snow on the ground.

and in 1 hour only 1.5 inches snow increases

and if snow takes 2 hours to increase at 3 inches then

it takes 10 hours to reach at 12 inches.

So, snow falls for 10 hours to increase at 12 inches.

And then the snow falls at constant rate of 1 inch per hour for 2 hours.

It means now snow reaches at a 15 inches after 16 hours.

Then sun melt the snow at a 4 inches per 3 hours and sun came for 6 hours then

it means now the level of snow reduced and came at the 7 inches.

because sun reduced 8 inches snow in 6 hours.

So, this is the data collected by a person.

The solution of the system is:

x = 62/7

y = 30/7

Here we have the system:

4x + 5y = -14

-5x - 8y = 10

To solve it by combining the equations, we need to try to remove one of the variables.

If we take the sum of 5 times the first equation and 4 times the second equation we get:

5*(4x + 5y) + 4*(-5x - 8y) = 5*(-14) + 4*10

If we simplify that we get:

20x  + 25y - 20x - 32y = -30

-7y = -30

Now we can solve that for y:

y = -30/-7 = 30/7

Now to get the value of x, we can replace the value of y in any of the given equations:

Using the first one:

4x + 5y = -14

x = (-14 - 5y)/4

x = (-14 - 5*30/7)/4 = (-98/7 - 150/7)/4 = 248/28 = 124/14 = 62/7

The solution of the system is:

x = 62/7

y = 30/7

Answer:

B. 52= 3.25n

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit price multiplied by quantity equals total. So, each notebook cost $3.25 and she buys 'n' notebooks.

She totally spends $52.

In conclusion, 3.25 (unit price × n [quantity]) = 52.

And that is.. 52 = 3.25n.

<3

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's think about what does the given info mean.

Because of n notebooks, she spent $52

One notebook is $3.25.

So 3.25n = 52

Take it this way if you don't understand

Let's say I spent 4$ on two (2) pens

What's the value of one pen?

We want to find the value of one pen and then multiply it by 2, to get 4$

So we normally would do 4/2

However, to set up an equation, we would create

v (value of one pen) x 2 (pens) = 4$ (cost)

v = 4$/2 = 2$

The total surface area of the composite figure is calculated as 444 m².

Total surface area = surface area of the bottom rectangular prism + surface area of the top triangular prism - area of the shared surface.

Surface area of the triangular prism = (S1 + S2+ S3)L + bh = (16 + 10 + 10)5 + (6)(16) = 276 m²

Rectangular prism surface area = 2(wl + hl + hw) = 2(5×16 + 4×16 + 4×5) = 328 m²

Area of shared surface = 2(16)(5) = 160 m²

Total surface area = 328 + 276 - 160 = 444 m².

Answer:

C.  (x,y) ⇒ (x + 8, y − 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

See attached image.

Since the height (feet) of the spray of water is given by this equation h(x) = -x² + 10x + 9.5, we can logically deduce that the irrigation system is positioned 9.5 feet above the ground to start.

For any quadratic equation with a parabolic curve, the axis of symmetry is given by:

Xmax = -b/2a

Xmax = -10/2(-1)

Xmax = 5.

Thus, the maximum height on the vertical axis is given by:

h(x) = -x² + 10x + 9.5

h(5) = -(5)² + 10(5) + 9.5

h(5) = -25 + 50 + 9.5

h(5) = 34.5 feet.

Therefore, the spray reaches a maximum height of 84.5 feet at a horizontal distance of 5 feet away from the sprinkler head.

Also, the spray reaches all the way to the ground at about:

Maximum distance = √34.5 + 5

Maximum distance = 10.87 feet.

Complete Question:

An irrigation system (sprinkler) has a parabolic pattern. The height, in feet, of the spray of water is given by the equation h(x) = -x² + 10x + 9.5, where x is the number of feet away from the sprinkler head (along the ground) the spray is.

1. The irrigation system is positioned____ feet above the ground to start.

2. The spray reaches a maximum height of ____feet at a horizontal distance of feet away from the sprinkler head.

3. The spray reaches all the way to the ground at about_____ feet away​

The height is changing by 0.5 each minute

The question implies that we calculate the slope of the table

From the table of values, we have the following points

(0, 150) and (1, 150.5)

The slope is then calculated as:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 -x1)

This gives

m = (150.5 - 150)/(1 - 0)

Evaluate

m = 0.5

Hence, the height is changing by 0.5 each minute

Answer b. The probability that at least 41 of them like to swim is 33%.

Solution:

The probability of an event is always 1 or 100%

The probability of at most 40 of them like to swim is 67% = 0.67

The probability of at most 40 not swimming = 1 - 0.67 = 0.33

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Expanding (x² − x + 2)(x − 1) we get [tex]x^{3} -x^{2} -x^{2} +x+2x-2[/tex]. When we simplify that, we get [tex]x^{3} -2x^{2} +3x-2[/tex] which fits the form Ax³ + Bx² + Cx + D.

We can see that A = 1, B = -2, C = 3, D = -2. Thus A + D = 1 - 2 = -1.

Therefore your answer is -1

Answer:

A + D = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: (x² − x + 2)(x − 1) = Ax³ + Bx² + Cx + D

Step 1: Simplify using the Distributive Property.

[tex]\\\implies (x^2 - x + 2)(x - 1) \\\\\implies x(x^2 - x + 2) + -1(x^2 - x + 2)\\\\\implies x^3 - x^2 + 2x - x^2 + x - 2\\\\\implies \bold{1}x^3 -\bold{2}x^2 + \bold{3}x - \bold{2}[/tex]

Step 2: Determine the value of the coefficients.

[tex]\implies {\sf A} = 1, {\sf B} = -2, {\sf C} = 3, {\sf D} = -2[/tex]

Theo's base salary  using a simultaneous equation approach is $2,996.22 .

In order to determine the base salary of Theo, we can express the two earnings and sales amounts using simultaneous equation, that we would solve to arrive at the base salary

Bear in mind that total earnings are determined as base salary plus commission

Let X be the base salary

Let R be the rate of commission

commission =sales*rate of commission

When earnings were $3,835.25 and sales is $12,850, we have the below equation:

X+(12,850*R)=3,835.25

X+12850R=3,835.25  .................... equation (1)

When earnings were $3,641 and sales is $9,875, we have the below equation:

X+(9,875*R)=3641

X+9875R=3641 .........................  equation (2)

subtract equation 2 from 1

2975R=194.25

R=194.25/2975

R=commission rate=6.52941176470588%

substitute for R in equation 1 to arrive at X(base salary)

X+(12850*6.52941176470588%)=3,835.25

X=3,835.25-(12850*6.52941176470588%)
