Solve the simultaneous equations:

3a-2b=14
4a+3b=13

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3a-2b=14 multiply by 3

9a - 6b = 42 (1)

4a+3b=13 multiply by 2

8a +6b = 26 (2)

sum up (1) and (2)

17a = 68

a =4

b=-1

Answer 2

Answer:

a = 4 b = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

13 = 4a - 3b  (1)

14 = 3a + 2b  (2)

(1) x 2

(2) x 3

26 = 8a - 6b   (3)

42 = 9a + 6b   (4)

(3) + (4)

68 = 17a

68/17 = 17a/17

a = 4

Substitute back in to original equation

14 = 3(4) - 2b

14 = 12 - 2b

14 - 12 = 12 -12 - 2b

2 = -2b

Divide by -2 both sides

b = -1

Check

3(4) - 2(-1)

12 + 2 = 14

Answers

Answer:

4/1771

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

sample space

7 cans of apple​ juice,

6 cans of grape​ juice,

6 cans of orange​ juice, and

4 cans of mango juice

Sample size= (7+6+6+4)

                       = 23

Step two:

Required

The probability of randomly selecting three cans of mango juice in succession

Note: we are selecting without replacement

let the probability of selecting three cans of mango juice be

the first selection is= 4/23

The second = 3/22

the third= 2/21

[tex]P(x)= 4/23*3/22*2/21[/tex]

what is the answer for 7(x+2) = 6(x+1)

Answers

Answer:

x= -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple math

Answer: x = -8

7(x + 2) = 6(x + 1)

⇔ 7x + 14 = 6x + 6

⇔ 7x - 6x = 6 - 14

⇔ x = -8

A manufacturer is considering building a new and better mousetrap. She estimates the probability that the new mousetrap will be successful is . If it is successful, it would be able to make $120,000. Of course, she would make nothing if it were unsuccessful. The development costs for the mousetrap are $98,000. What is the expected value?

Answers

Answer:

$22,000 if successful

Step-by-step explanation:

So if She is able to make $120,000 on the trap, but it cost$98,000, just subtract $98,000 from $120,000 and you get $22,000 if she is successful she can expect that much

Which is the equation of the parabola that
opens to the right, has a focus at (3.0), and
has a directrix at x=-3?

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the parabola will be:

[tex]\:y^2=12x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex  (h, k)  is halfway between the directrix and focus.

Find the  x  coordinate of the vertex using the formula

x = (x-coordinate of focus + directrix)/2

 = (3-3)/2

 = 0/2

 =0

The  y -coordinate will be the same as the y-coordinate of the focus.

so the vertex will be: (0, 0)

Finding the distance from the focus to the vertex

The distance from the focus to the vertex and from the vertex to the directrix is |p|.

Subtract the  x  coordinate of the vertex from the x -coordinate of the focus to find  p .

[tex]p=3-0[/tex]

[tex]p=3[/tex]

Substitute in the known values for the variables into the equation

[tex]\left(y-k\right)^2=4p\left(x-h\right)[/tex]

[tex]\left(y-0\right)^2=4\left(3\right)\left(x-0\right)[/tex]

[tex]\:y^2=12x[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the parabola will be:

[tex]\:y^2=12x[/tex]

Jasmin's dog weighs 55 pounds. Her vet told her that a healthy weight for her dog would be less than or equal to 41 pounds.
Jasmin's dog can lose an average of 0.5 pounds every week. Write the solution to an inequality that describes all possible number of
weeks 2 for which her dog can be at a healthy weight.

Answers

Answer:

55-0.5x ≤ 41 (x will represent the weeks)

Step-by-step explanation:

i made x represent the weeks and we know that jasmin's dog can lose about 0.5 pound a week. and the base is 55 lbs since that is what jasmin's dog weighs. 55 minus all the weight that jasmin's dog will lose in a certain amount of weeks is the first part. then we know jasmin's dog has to be less than or equal to 41 lbs. so put that there with the less than or equal to sign.
