Solve by substitution
y=x+3
y=2x+5

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: y = x+3
y = 2x+5
x+3 = 2x+5
x+8 = 2x
x = 8

I think I did that right, anyway.
Answer 2
Answer: y=x+3
y=2x+5

1. Solve for the variable that is easiest to find. 
     In this case I will solve for x.
y=x+3
-3       -3
y-3=x

2. Now plug in (y-3) for x in the other equation.
   y=2(y-3)+5  ~use distributive property 
   y=2y-6+5     ~combine like terms
   y=2y-1
-2y=-2y
  -y=-1             ~multiply both sides by -1
   y=1
 
3. Since you have a value for y you can plug it in to solve for x.
     y=x+3
    1=x+3
    -3    -3
    -2=x

Answers: 
y=1
x=-2

Canvas cloth cost 7.50 per square meter how much will 3.5 square meters of canvas cost ??

Answers

Answer:

$26.25 is the cost of 3.5 square meters canvas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of one unit square canvas is given as $7.50 and we have to calculate the cost of 3.5 square meter cost of the canvas.

We can use the unitary method to solve this question.

∵ Cost of 1 square meter canvas = $7.50

∴ Cost of 3.5 square meter canvas = 7.5 × 3.5

                                                      = $26.25

Therefore, cost of 3.5 square meter of the canvas is $26.25.

3.5 sq.m. will cost $26.25

A boat travels at 15 km/hr in still water. In travelling 45 km downstream from town A to town Bit completes the journey in 75 minutes less than it takes for the return journey. At what speed does the river flow?

Answers

Let the speed of river be x   km/hr down stream.

Time = Distance / speed

Since river flows downstream,  speed of boat down stream = Speed of boat + speed of river =  (15 + x).

 Since river flows downstream,  speed of boat upstream = Speed of boat - speed of river =  (15 - x).

Time Upstream - Time Downstream = 75 minutes

Time Upstream =  45 / (15 - x)

Time Downstream =  45 / (15 + x)

75 minutes = 75/60  =  5/4 hours

Time Upstream - Time Downstream = 75 minutes = 5/4 hours

45 / (15 - x)    -    45 / (15 + x)  = 5/4          Divide both sides by 45

1 / (15 - x)    -    1 / (15 + x)  = (5/4)*(1/45)

 1 / (15 - x)    -    1 / (15 + x)  = 1/36

((15 + x) - (15 -x)) / (15-x)(15+x)  = 1/36

(15 +x - 15 +x) / (15-x)(15+x)  =  1/36

  2x / (15-x)(15+x)  = 1/36

 (15-x)(15+x) = 2x*36

(15-x)(15+x) = 72x

225 - x² = 72x

0 =  x² + 72x -225

x² + 72x -225 = 0            This is a quadratic function, use a calculator that can solve the function, by inputting the function.

x = 3, or -75.  Since we are solving for speed, we can not have negative values.

x = 3 is the only valid solution.

Speed of the river =  3 km/hr  downstream.

Label each function as even, odd, or neither.

Answers

an even function has symmetry about the x axis

this means that if you fold the graph over the y axis, the function will map over itself

in number terms, if f(x) is an even function, then f(x)=f(-x)

an example is f(x)=x²


an odd function has symmetry about the origin

it is kinda confusing, but if g(x) is an odd function, g(-x)=-g(x)

an example is g(x)=x³



the first one (f(x)) seems to be neither

h(x) one, notice for x=2 and -2, the values are negative of each other, this tells us that it's an odd function

g(x), replacing x with -x gives us -|-2x|+3=-|2x|+3, same function, even function


An electrician has a spool of wire that is 200 m long. she needs four pieces of wire measuring 42.3 m, 37.8 m, 55.6 m, and 35.7 m. about how much wire will be left on the spool after she finishes her job? give your answer with the appropriate precision.

Answers

She needs exactly 42.3m + 37.8m + 55.6m + 35.7m = 171.4m for accomplishing her job, so there will be 28.6 m  (200m-171.4m)  of wire after she finished her work.

PLEASE ANSWER ASAP!!! TIMED!!Finding which number supports the idea that the rational numbers are dense in the real numbers?

A. a fraction between π/2 and π/3
B. an integer between –11 and –10
C. a whole number between 1 and 2
D. a terminating decimal between –3.14 and –3.15

Answers

Using the concept of dense numbers, it is found that the correct option is:

A. a fraction between π/2 and π/3

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

  • The rational numbers are dense in the real numbers because all irrational numbers can be closely approximated to a rational.
  • There are no integers between -11 and -10, neither there are whole numbers between 1 and 2, thus, options B and C are incorrect.
  • Terminating decimals between -3.14 and -3.15, such as -3.141, are rational numbers, so it does not show the density, and thus, option D is incorrect.
  • (\pi)/(2) and (\pi)/(3), just as \pi, are non-terminating decimals, thus they are irrational numbers. However, through rounding, all can be approximated to a rational number, and thus, it shows that rational numbers are dense in the real numbers, being the correct option.

A similar problem is given at brainly.com/question/17405059

Answer:

A terminating decimal between -3.14 and -3.15

Step-by-step explanation:

A natural number includes non-negative numbers like 5, 203, and 18476.

It is encapsulated by integers, which include negative numbers like -29, -4, and -198.

Integers are further encapsulated by rational numbers, which includes terminating decimals like 3.14, 1.495, and 9.47283.

By showing a terminating decimal between -3.14 and -3.15, you are showing that rational numbers include integers (because integers include negative numbers)
