I'm not good with any math that is above per algebra sorry.
Answer:
1) (2, 3)
2) (2, -5).
Step-by-step explanation:
2x – y = 1
2x +2y = 10 Subtract to eliminate the 2x:
2x - 2x - y - 2y = 1 - 10
-3y = -9
y = 3.
Plug this into the first equation:
2x - 3 = 1
2x = 4
x = 2.
2)
5x – y =15
x + y = -3 Adding to eliminate y:
5x + x - y + y = 15 + -3
6x = 12
x = 2
Plug this into the first equation:
5(2) - y = 15
-y = 15 - 10 = 5
y = -5.
Answer:
10 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's use the variable x for the amount of coins.
The first machine can sort x coins in 15 minutes, so its speed is x/15 coins/minute.
The second machine can sort x coins in 30 minutes, so its speed is x/30 coins/minute.
If we sum the speeds, we have that the speed will be:
speed = (x/15) + (x/30) = (2x + x)/30 = 3x/30 = x/10
The total speed can sort x/10 coins per minute, that is x coins in 10 minutes.
Answer:
√254 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
This is basically a triangle, with a height of 2, and hypotenuse of 16.
Using the Pythagorean theorem (a^2+b^2=h^2) we can find the other side.
2^2+b^2=16^2
4+b^2=256
b^2=254
b=√254
