Which statement is true about the equations –3x + 4y = 12 and x – y = 1? The system of the equations has exactly one solution at

(–8, 3). The system of the equations has exactly one solution at (–4, 3). The system of the equations has no solution; the two lines are parallel. The system of the equations has an infinite number of solutions represented by either equation.

The equations to consider are:
-3x + 4y = 12
x - y = 1

To find the solution, we will use substitution. From the second equation,
x = 1 + y

Now, we will substitute this value of x into the first equation:

-3(1 + y) + 4y = 12
-3 - 3y + 4y = 12
y - 3 = 12
Solving for y gives us:
y = 15
Now substituting this value back to find x:
x = 1 + y = 1 + 15 = 16

Thus, the solution is (16, 15).

This indicates that the equations possess a unique solution: (16, 15).

Ezra works two summer jobs to save for a laptop that costs at least $1100. He charges $15/hr to mow lawns and $10/hr to walk dog

Begin by disregarding the inequality symbol and substituting it with an '=' sign. After that, determine the x- and y-intercepts.

15x + 10y = 1,100

x-intercept:

15x + 0 = 1,100

x = 1,100/15 = 73.33

y-intercept:

0 + 10y = 1,100

y = 1,100/10 = 110


Now, plot the points (73.33,0) and (0,110). Given that the inequality symbol is ≥, representing equality, connect these points using a solid line. 

Next, let's identify a point on the graph, for instance, the origin (0,0). Use this point in the equation.

15x + 10y ≥ 1,100

15(0) + 10(0)? 1,100

0? 1,100

0 < 1,100

This makes the ≥ statement false. As a result, the alternate area defined by the line is the solution. Consequently, shade that region. The resulting graph is displayed in the attached image.

Brad buys a pack of 12 bottles of energy drink for £9.25 he then sells all bottles for £1 each. Work out brads percentage profit
Svet_ta [9486]

La ganancia de Brad fue del 30%

Explicación adicional:

La ganancia es el dinero obtenido al vender un producto por encima de su costo original.

La fórmula para calcular la ganancia es:

Profit= Selling\ price-Purchase\ price

Datos:

Precio de compra del paquete de bebidas energéticas = £9.25

Precio de venta por botella = £1

Precio total por 12 botellas = 1 * 12 = £12

Ganancia = Precio de venta - Precio de compra

= 12 - 9.25

= £2.75

Así, la ganancia de Brad fue de £2.75

Luego,

Porcentaje de ganancia = (Ganancia / Precio de compra) * 100

= (2.75 / 9.25) * 100

= 0.30 * 100

= 30%

La ganancia de Brad fue del 30%

A has the coordinates (–4, 3) and B has the coordinates (4, 4). If DO,1/2(x, y) is a dilation of △ABC, what is true about the im
lawyer [9226]
A dilation represents a transformation D_{o,k}(x,y), centered at point O with a scale factor of k, which cannot be zero. This transformation keeps O fixed while transforming any other point P into its image P'. Points O, P, and P' are collinear.

In a dilation of D_{o, \frac{1}{2} }(x,y), the scale factor \frac{1}{2} maps the original figure to its transformed image in such a way that the distances from O to points of the image are half the distances from O to the original figure. Consequently, the image's size is also half that of the original figure.

Thus, <span>If D_{o, \frac{1}{2} }(x,y) represents the dilation of △ABC, then the properties of the image △A'B'C'</span> are:

<span>AB is parallel to A'B'.

D_{o, \frac{1}{2} }(x,y)=( \frac{1}{2}x, \frac{1}{2}y)

The distance from A' to the origin is half that from A to the origin.</span>
