Answer 1

Answer:

We're asked to solve this system of equations:

\begin{aligned} 2y+7x &= -5\\\\ 5y-7x &= 12 \end{aligned}  

2y+7x

5y−7x

 

=−5

=12

 

We notice that the first equation has a 7x7x7, x term and the second equation has a -7x−7xminus, 7, x term. These terms will cancel if we add the equations together—that is, we'll eliminate the xxx terms:

\begin{aligned} 2y+\redD{7x} &= -5 \\ +~5y\redD{-7x}&=12\\ \hline\\ 7y+0 &=7 \end{aligned}  

2y+7x

+ 5y−7x

7y+0

 

=−5

=12

=7

 

 

Solving for yyy, we get:

\begin{aligned} 7y+0 &=7\\\\ 7y &=7\\\\ y &=\goldD{1} \end{aligned}  

7y+0

7y

y

 

=7

=7

=1

 

Plugging this value back into our first equation, we solve for the other variable:

\begin{aligned} 2y+7x &= -5\\\\ 2\cdot \goldD{1}+7x &= -5\\\\ 2+7x&=-5\\\\ 7x&=-7\\\\ x&=\blueD{-1} \end{aligned}  

2y+7x

2⋅1+7x

2+7x

7x

x

 

=−5

=−5

=−5

=−7

=−1

 

The solution to the system is x=\blueD{-1}x=−1x, equals, start color #11accd, minus, 1, end color #11accd, y=\goldD{1}y=1y, equals, start color #e07d10, 1, end color #e07d10.

We can check our solution by plugging these values back into the original equations. Let's try the second equation:

\begin{aligned} 5y-7x &= 12\\\\ 5\cdot\goldD{1}-7(\blueD{-1}) &\stackrel ?= 12\\\\ 5+7 &= 12 \end{aligned}  

5y−7x

5⋅1−7(−1)

5+7

 

=12

=

?

12

=12

 

Yes, the solution checks out.

If you feel uncertain why this process works, check out this intro video for an in-depth walkthrough.

Example 2

We're asked to solve this system of equations:

\begin{aligned} -9y+4x - 20&=0\\\\ -7y+16x-80&=0 \end{aligned}  

−9y+4x−20

−7y+16x−80

 

=0

=0

 

We can multiply the first equation by -4−4minus, 4 to get an equivalent equation that has a \purpleD{-16x}−16xstart color #7854ab, minus, 16, x, end color #7854ab term. Our new (but equivalent!) system of equations looks like this:

\begin{aligned} 36y\purpleD{-16x}+80&=0\\\\ -7y+16x-80&=0 \end{aligned}  

36y−16x+80

−7y+16x−80

 

=0

=0

 

Adding the equations to eliminate the xxx terms, we get:

\begin{aligned} 36y-\redD{16x} +80&=0 \\ {+}~-7y+\redD{16x}-80&=0\\ \hline\\ 29y+0 -0&=0 \end{aligned}  

36y−16x+80

+ −7y+16x−80

29y+0−0

 

=0

=0

=0

 

 

Solving for yyy, we get:

\begin{aligned} 29y+0 -0&=0 \\\\ 29y&=0 \\\\ y&=\goldD 0 \end{aligned}  

29y+0−0

29y

y

 

=0

=0

=0

 

Plugging this value back into our first equation, we solve for the other variable:

\begin{aligned} 36y-16x+80&=0\\\\ 36\cdot 0-16x+80&=0\\\\ -16x+80&=0\\\\ -16x&=-80\\\\ x&=\blueD{5} \end{aligned}  

36y−16x+80

36⋅0−16x+80

−16x+80

−16x

x

 

=0

=0

=0

=−80

=5

 

The solution to the system is x=\blueD{5}x=5x, equals, start color #11accd, 5, end color #11accd, y=\goldD{0}y=0y, equals, start color #e07d10, 0, end color #e07d10.

Kaya invests £4000 for 8 years
The investment gets compound interest of x% per annum
At the end of 8 years the investment is worth £6872.74
Work out the value of x

Answers

To find the interest rate on the investment for 8 years is equal to 0.7%

Given the following data:

Principal = £4000Future value = £6872.74Time = 8 years

To find the interest rate on the investment for 8 years:

Mathematically, compound interest is given by the formula:

[tex]A = P(1 + r)^{t}[/tex]

Where;

A is the future value.P is the principal or starting amount.r is annual interest rate.t is the number of years for the compound interest.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]6872.74 = 4000(1 + r)^{8}\\\\(1 + r)^{8}=\frac{6872.74}{4000} \\\\(1 + r)^{8}=1.7182\\\\1+r=\sqrt[8]{1.7182} \\\\1+r =1.07\\\\r=1.07-1\\\\r=0.7[/tex]

Find the next two terms. 2, 10, 50, ?, ?

Answers

Hi there!

The next 2 terms are 250 and 1,250.

We have a geometric sequence, which means we use multiplication or division to get to the next term.

Here, we multiply by 5 to get to the next term.

So we multiply 50 by 5:

50*5=250

We multiply 250 by 5 to get to the next term:

250*5=1,250

And we're done!

Therefore, the next two terms are: 250 and 1,250.

Hope this helps!

The graph of g(x) is a transformation of the graph of f(x)=3^x.

Enter the equation for g(x) in the box.

g(x) =

Answers

Transformation involves changing the position of a graph

The equation of g(x) is [tex]\mathbf{g(x) = 8(2)^x}[/tex]

A geometric function is represented as:

[tex]\mathbf{y =ab^x}[/tex]

The graph of g(x) passes through (-1,4) and (-2,2)

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{2 =ab^{-2}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{4 =ab^{-1}}[/tex]

Divide both equations

[tex]\mathbf{\frac{4}{2} =\frac{ab^{-1}}{ab^{-2}}}[/tex]

Divide

[tex]\mathbf{2 =b}[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]\mathbf{b =2}[/tex]

Substitute 2 for b in [tex]\mathbf{4 =ab^{-1}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{4 = a2^{-1}}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2

[tex]\mathbf{8 = a}[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]\mathbf{a = 8}[/tex]

Substitute 2 for b and 8 for a in [tex]\mathbf{y =ab^x}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{y = 8(2)^x}[/tex]

Express as a function

[tex]\mathbf{g(x) = 8(2)^x}[/tex]

Hence, the equation of g(x) is [tex]\mathbf{g(x) = 8(2)^x}[/tex]

1/x = 5/60 - 2/60

Answer:

 Domain: (-∞, ∞)

Range: (0,∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential functions are curves which approach a horizontal asymptote usually at y=0 or the x-axis unless a value has been added to it. If it has, the curve shifts. This function has addition on the exponent but not to the whole function so it does not change the asymptote. Its y - values remain between 0 and ∞. This is the range, the set of y values.

However, the range of exponentials can change based on the leading coefficient. If it is negative the graph flips upside down and its range goes to -∞. This doesn't have it either.

The addition to 1 on the exponent shifts the function to the left but doesn't change the range.

In exponential functions, the x values are usually not affected and all are included in the function. Even though it shifts, the domain doesn't change either. Its domain is (-∞, ∞).

Domain: (-∞, ∞)

 Range: (0,∞)

Answer:

try graphing it to see the domain and range easier (desmos or a graphing calculator is useful)

Salmonella in pet foods and treats potentially can be transferred to people ingesting or handling the contaminated products.FDA has stepped up its efforts to minimize the incidence of foodborne illness associated with pet foods and treats. Pet owners and consumers can also help reduce the likelihood of infection from contaminated pet foods and treats by following safe handling instructions:BuyingPurchase products in good condition, without signs of damage to the packaging such as dents or tears.PreparationWash your hands for 20 seconds with hot water and soap before and after handling pet foods and treats.Wash pet food bowls, dishes, and scooping utensils with soap and hot water after each use.Do not use the pet's feeding bowl as a scooping utensiluse a clean, dedicated scoop or spoon.Dispose of old or spoiled pet food products in a safe manner, such as in a securely tied plastic bag in a covered trash receptacle.StorageRefrigerate promptly or discard any unused, leftover wet pet food. Refrigerators should be set at 40 F.Dry products should be stored in a cool, dry placeunder 80 F.If possible, store dry pet food in its original bag inside a clean, dedicated plastic container with a lid, keeping the top of the bag folded closed.Keep pets away from food storage and preparation areas.Keep pets away from garbage and household trash.Raw Food DietsFDA does not believe raw meat foods for animals are consistent with the goal of protecting the public from significant health risks, particularly when these products are brought into the home or used to feed domestic pets; however, we understand that some people prefer to feed these types of diets to their pets.Source: http://www.fda.gov/downloads/forconsumers/consumerupdates/ucm221247.pdfUpdated: March 30, 2010Which of the following correctly states the main idea of this article on pet food safety?
