A pair of equations is shown below:y = 3x − 5
y = 6x − 8

Part A: Explain how you will solve the pair of equations by substitution or elimination. Show all the steps and write the solution. (5 points)

Part B: If the two equations are graphed, at what point will the lines representing the two equations intersect? Explain your answer.

Answers

y = 3x - 5
y = 6x - 8

y = y
3x - 5 = 6x - 8
3x - 6x = -8 + 5
-3x = -3
x = -3/-3
x = 1

y = 3x - 5 ⇒ 3(1) - 5 = 3 - 5 ⇒ y = -2
y = 6x - 8 ⇒ 6(1) - 8 = 6 - 8 ⇒ y = -2

x = 1 ; y = -2   or  (1,-2) is the point of intersection.

Answer:

A.

y = 3x - 5

y = 6x - 8    We simply subtract the second equation from the first. This eliminates y:

0 = 3x - 6x - 5 - (-8)

0 = -3x - 5 + 8

3x = 3

x = 1

Now substitute for x in first equation:

y = 3(1) - 5

y = -2.

B.  x = 1 and y = -2  are the values that satisfy both equations. So the liones will intersect at this point (1, -2).

y = 3x - 5

y = 6x - 8    We simply subtract the second equation from the first. This eliminates y:

0 = 3x - 6x - 5 - (-8)

0 = -3x - 5 + 8

3x = 3

Population a current census shows that the population of a city is 3.5 million using the formula p= aert find the expected population of the city in 30 years of the growth rate r of the population is 1.5% a reaper prevents the current population in millions and the t represents the time in years

Answers

Answer: the expected population of the city in 30 years is 5470781

Step-by-step explanation:

The population growth is exponential. The growth rate is exponential. We would apply the formula for exponential growth which is expressed as

A = P(1 + r)^t

Where

A represents the population after t years.

t represents the number of years.

P represents the initial population.

r represents rate of growth.

From the information given,

P = 3.5 × 10^6

r = 1.5% = 1.5/100 = 0.015

t = 30 years

Therefore,

A = 3.5 × 10^6(1 + 0.015)^30

A = 3.5 × 10^6(1.015)^30

A = 5470781

A rain gutter is to be constructed of aluminum sheets 12 inches wide. After marking off a length of 4 inches from each edge, this length is bent up at an angle θ. The area A of the opening may be expressed as the function: A(θ) = 16 sin θ ⋅ (cos θ + 1). If θ = 60°, what is the area of the opening?

Answers

A(45degrees) = 16sin(45)(cos(45)+ 1)
                         = 16(1/sqrt2)(1+1/sqrt2)
                         = 16(1/sqrt2)(1+ sqrt2) /sqrt2
                         = 16(1+sqrt2) /2
                         = 8 + (sqrt2)/2in^2
 

The standard normal curve shown below models the population distribution of a random variable. What proportion of the values in the population does not lie between the two z-scores indicated on the diagram?z=-1.25
z=0.80

Answers

Answer:

0.3175

Step-by-step explanation:

z=-1.25 from table is .1056

z=.80 from table is .7881

subtract from each other =.6825

Subtract from the whole is 1-.6825=0.3175
