2. Tyler is solving this system of equations:
4p + 2g = 62
8p - q = 59

He can think of two ways to eliminate a variable and solve the system:

o Multiply 4p + 2g = 62 by 2, then subtract 8p - q= 59 from the result.

• Multiply 8p-q=59 by 2, then add the result to 4p + 2q = 62.

Do both strategies work for solving the system? Explain or show your reasoning.

please help out ://

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Both of them work

Step-by-step explanation:

by multiplying the first equation by 2 it creates the same coefficient in front of "p" for both equations. same for the second equation and "q".

Answer 2

Both strategies works since we can easily eliminate a variable from both equations.

Given the simultaneous equation solved by Tyler

4p + 2q = 62

8p - q = 59

In order for him to eliminate a variable to solve the system of equations, he must ensure that the coeffiecient of the variable to be eliminated are equations in both expressions. To do that;

Multiply 4p + 2g = 62 by 2, then subtract 8p - q= 59 from the result. This will give;

8p + 4g = 124

8p - q = 59

Subtract

4q + q = 124 + 59

5q = 183

The second required strategy is  to Multiply 8p-q=59 by 2, then add the result to 4p + 2q = 62, to have:

16p-2q=118

4p + 2q = 62

Adding up

16p + 4p = 118 + 62

20p = 180

p = 9

We can see that both strategies works since we can easily eliminate a variable from both equations.

Solving the equation $=54$ , and substituting the solution into the expressions for the three integers results in the three integers given above.

Answers

Answer:

First Integer = 16

Second Integer = 18

Third integer = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

An even integer is represented by 2n

Where n is any integer

Let :

First Integer = 2n - 2

Second Integer = 2n

Third integer = 2n + 2

The sum of three even consecutive numbers = 2n - 2 + 2n + 2n + 2

= 2n + 2n + 2n - 2 + 2 = 54

= 6n = 54

n = 54/6

n = 9

First Integer = 2n - 2 = 2(9) - 2

= 16

Second Integer = 2n = 2(9)

= 18

Third integer = 2n + 2 = 2(9) + 2

= 20

A

17 centimeters

B.

19 centimeters

C

21 centimeters

D

25 centimeters

Answers

Answer:

21cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area if the canvas = L²

If the length is increased by 4

A = L²

625 = L²

L = √625

L = 25cm

If the 4cm is added to the length of the canvas, the original length will be 25-4 = 21cm. hence the length of the bare canvas is 21cm

Naomi works in a music shop and earns $42 per day. She earns an extra $2 for each CD she sells. If Naomi wants to earn at least $80 per day, which inequality shows the minimum number of CDs, n, that she should sell?

42 + 2n ≤ 80, so n ≤ 19
42 + 2n ≥ 80, so n ≥ 19
42 + 2n ≥ 80, so n ≥ 36
42 + 2n ≤ 80, so n ≤ 36

Answers

Answer:

B. 42 + 2n ≥ 80, so n ≥ 19

Step-by-step explanation:

42 + 2n ≥ 80

Subtract 42 from both sides

2n ≥ 38

Divide both sides by 2

n ≥ 19

Hope I helped :)

Please consider Brainliest :)

Answer:

42 + 2n ≥ 80, so n ≥ 19

Step-by-step explanation:

If she wants to make at least $80 the she would need to sell a number of cedis in addition to her $42

That is:

Let n be the number of CDs

42 + 2n

and to get at least $80, (at least meaning $80 dollars or more)

So that will be:

42 + 2n ≥ 80

So to get at least 80 dollars, she'll have to sell 19 CDs

Why 19 CDs? 42 + 2n which is 42 + 2(19) = 80

Which is why 42 + 2n ≥ 80, so n ≥ 19

On a family outing, Tyler bought 5 cups of hot cocoa (x)
and 4 pretzels (y) for $18.40. Some of his family members
would like a second serving, so he went back to the same
food stand and bought another 2 cups of hot cocoa (x) and
4 pretzels (y) for $11.20.

Answers

Answers:

x = 2.40

y = 1.60

This means 1 hot cocoa costs $2.40 and 1 pretzel costs $1.60

=======================================

Work Shown:

x = cost of 1 cup of hot cocoa

y = cost of 1 pretzel

5x = cost of 5 cocoas

4y = cost of 4 pretzels

5x+4y = cost of 5 cocoas+4 pretzels

5x+4y = 18.40

----------------

2x = cost of 2 cocoas

4y = cost of 4 pretzels

2x+4y = cost of 2 cocoas+4 pretzels

2x+4y = 11.20

----------------

The system of equations we have is

[tex]\begin{cases}5x+4y = 18.40\\2x+4y = 11.20\end{cases}[/tex]

Note how 4y shows up twice. This is handy to be able to get rid of the y terms completely.

How? By subtracting the equations straight down

The x terms subtract to 5x-2x = 3x

The y terms subtract to 4y-4y = 0y = 0 and they go away

The right hand sides subtract to 18.40 - 11.20 = 7.20

After those three separate subtractions, we have this new equation:

3x = 7.20

Divide both sides by 3 to isolate x

3x/3 = 7.20/3

x = 2.40

Each hot cocoa costs $2.40

Now use this x value to find y. You can pick any equation you want as long as it has x,y in it. I'll pick the first equation

5x+4y = 18.40

5(2.40)+4y = 18.40

12+4y = 18.40

4y = 18.40-12

4y = 6.40

y = 6.40/4

y = 1.60

Each pretzel costs $1.60

If we picked on the second equation, we should get the same y value

Let's find out

2x+4y = 11.20

2(2.40)+4y = 11.20

4.80+4y = 11.20

4y = 11.20-4.80

4y = 6.40

y = 6.40/4

y = 1.60

We get the same result as before.

To check the answers, you need to plug those values back into the two original equations and simplify. You should get the same thing on both sides.

Perform the indicated operation.

Passage 1The Two Friends Once upon a time, in a jungle, there lived two very unusual friendsa tiger and a lion. They had been together since they were cubs and did not think it strange that they were friends. In that same jungle, there also lived an old monk. Many animals would come to the monk for guidance and all of them would go back satisfied with his wise advice. One evening, the lion and tiger were strolling through the forest when the tiger saw the moon in the sky. The previous night had been a full moon night. The tiger noticed that the moon had decreased in size from the previous night. He turned to the lion and said, "Looks like we're in for some cold weather, the moon is smaller tonight." The lion looked up at the waning moon and replied, "Who told you that a waning moon indicates cold weather? A waxing moon indicates that we are in for cold days ahead." The tiger laughed at the lion and told him that he had gotten his facts wrong. The lion retorted that the tiger was ignorant. He told the tiger that he should check his facts before getting into an argument. Thus, the tiger and the lion continued to argue, both of them sure that the other was wrong. The argument between the tiger and the lion would have continued, but then they decided to consult the monk. When the monk heard what they were arguing about, he laughed at their folly. He told them that cold weather did not depend on the waxing or waning of the moon but on the direction from which the wind was blowing. On hearing this, the tiger and the lion were satisfied that they both were wrong.Passage 2The Party It was Ryan's fiftieth birthday the coming month and Ryan's wife, Paula, was helping him plan a grand birthday party.
