4x + y = 4
2x + 6y = 24

Which action creates an equivalent system that will eliminate one variable when they are combined?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(There's actually a few ways of solving this, but here's one)

Multiplying the second equation by 2.

EDIT: Because the question says it will eliminate a variable "when combined", implying adding the systems together. The actual correct answer is multiplying the second equation by -2.

(multiplying the second equation by -2 is the actual answer, my apologies)

Step-by-step explanation:

So it's clear that they are referring to the elimination method and not the substitution method for solving systems of equations.

In the elimination method, you subtract 2 equations in the hopes of the elimination of a variable.

If you multiply the second equation, 2x + 6y = 24, by 2, you get, 4x + 12y = 48.

This is helpful because when you subtract this from the first one, you eliminate x.

4x + y = 4

-(4x + 12y = 48)

is

-11y = -44

In two or more complete sentences, compare the number of x-intercepts in the graph of f(x)=x2 to the number of x-intercepts in the graph of g(x)= (x+2)2 -7

Answers

Because f(x)=x^2 is the parent function of a quadratic, it has one x-intercept at (0,0), no shifts up or down. But because g(x)=(x+2)^2-7 is a quadratic being shifted 2 units to the left and most importantly 7 units down, the function will cross the x-intercept 2 times.

the length of a rectagle is 5 in longer than its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 56 in, find its length and width

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle = x

As length is 5 inches longer than width, we have to add 5 to width

Length = x + 5

Perimeter of ractangle = 56 in

2* (length + width) = 56

2*( x + 5 + x) = 56

2* (2x + 5)    = 56

Use distributive property: a*(b +c) =(a*b) + (a * c)

2*2x + 2*5   = 56

4x  + 10 = 56

Subtract 10 from both sides

4x = 56- 10

4x = 46

Divide both sides by 4

x = 46/4

x = 11.5

Width = 11.5 in

length = 11.5 + 5

            = 16.5 in

Find the measures of the interior angles that maximize the area of an isosceles trapezoid
where the length of the non-parallel sides are each 4 inches and the length the shorter of
the two bases is 6 inches.

Answers

The measure of the angle that would maximize the area of this isosceles trapezoid is equal to 0.4395 rad.

Given the following data:

Base length = 6 inches.Sides length = 4 inches.

How to calculate the area of a trapezium.

Mathematically, the area of a trapezium is given by this formula:

A = ½ × (a + b) × h

A = ½ × (12 + 2l) × h

A = h(6 + l)

Next, we would derive a mathematical expression for A in terms of h as follows;

Let l = 4sinθ Let h = 4cosθ

A = (6 + 4sin(θ)) × 4cosθ

In order to determine the value of θ for which the area of this isosceles trapezoid is maximized, we would differentiate the area (A) with respect to angle (θ):

Note: sin²θ + cos²θ = 1   ⇒ cos²θ = 1 - sin²θ.

[tex]\frac{dA}{d\theta} =16 cos^{2} \theta - 4sin \theta(6+4sin \theta)\\\\\frac{dA}{d\theta} = 16 cos^{2} \theta - 16 sin^{2} \theta - 24sin\theta\\\\\frac{dA}{d\theta} =16(1-sin^{2} \theta)- 16 sin^{2} \theta - 24sin\theta\\\\\frac{dA}{d\theta} = - 32 sin^{2} \theta - 24sin\theta+16\\\\32 sin^{2} \theta + 24sin\theta-16=0[/tex]

Next, we would use the quadratic formula to solve for the value of sinθ.

Mathematically, the quadratic formula is given by this equation:

[tex]sin\theta = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Where:

a = 32.b = 24.c = -16.

Substituting the parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]sin\theta = \frac{-24\; \pm\; \sqrt{24^2 - 4(32)(-16)}}{2(32)}\\\\sin\theta = \frac{-24\; \pm\; \sqrt{2624}}{64}\\\\sin\theta = \frac{-24\; \pm\; 51.23}{64}\\\\sin\theta = \frac{-24\;+\; 51.23}{64}\\\\sin\theta = \frac{27.23}{64}\\\\sin\theta = 0.4255\\\\\theta = sin^{-1}(0.4255)[/tex]

θ = 0.4395 rad.

Note: We would only consider the positive value of the quadratic root.

For the obtuse interior angles of the trapezoid, we have [tex](\frac{\pi}{2} +0.4395)[/tex]

Similarly, the measure of the acute interior angles of the trapezoid is [tex](\frac{\pi}{2} -0.4395)[/tex]
