Answer:

x = 7, y = 10.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x - 3.5

-2y = -x - 14

Multiply the first equation by 2:

2y = 4x - 7  

Now add this equation  to the second one:

0 = 3x - 21

3x = 21

x = 7.

Now substitute x = 7 in the first equation to fund the value of y:

y = 2(7) - 3.5

y = 10.5.

Answer:

x=7

y=10.5


Step-by-step explanation:

1. You can apply the method of substitution, as you can see below:

- Substitute y=2x-3.5 into the other equation and solve fo x:

x-2(2x-3.5)=-14\\x-4x+7=-14\\x=7

- Substitute the value of x obtain into the first equation, then the value of y is:

y=2(7)-3.5\\y=10.5

What is the maximum vertical distance between the line y = x + 56 and the parabola y = x2 for −7 ≤ x ≤ 8?
atroni [7]
-7 and 8 are the solutions to the given equation system.
Therefore, the maximum distance between the y values of the two equations must lie exactly between their points of intersection. That is on x value:
x = (-7 + 8)/2 = 0.5
The maximum distance is:
y = 0.5 + 56 = 56.5
y = 0.5² = 0.25
56.5 - 0.25 = 56.25 units

Arthur borrowed $2,100 from the bank. 3 years later, Arthur owes the bank $2,478. What was the percentage rate of simple interes
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Percentage Rate=6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total borrowed=$2,100

Time=3 years

Rate=?

Total amount owed after 3 years= total borrowed + simple interest

$2,478=$2,100 + x

X=$2,478 - $2,100

=$378

The simple interest=$378

Simple interest=P×R×T

Where,

P= principal=$2,100

R=Rate=?

T=Time=3 years

Simple interest=$378

Simple interest=P×R×T/100

$378=$2,100×R×3/100

$378=$6,300R/100

$378=$63R

R=$378/$63

R=6

Therefore,

Rate=6%

Tom's statement shows a previous balance of $2452.64, a payment of $160, and new transactions $138. what is his new balance if h
elixir [45]
Tom:
Previous balance: 2,452.64
payment: 160
new transaction: 138
APR: 15.6%

We need to divide APR by 12 to get the monthly rate: 15.6% / 12 = 1.3%

2,452.64 - 160 = 2,292.64 
2,292.64 * 1.3% = 29.80  interest for the month. We did not include 138 because it still is within the 1 month period and it is not subject to interest. Only the revolving amount of 2,292.64 has interest.
2,292.64 + 29.80 + 138 = 2,460.44 NEW BALANCE OF TOM

Marco:
Unpaid credit card balance: 4,332.75
APR: 18.6% 
New transaction: 432

Divide APR by 12 to get the monthly rate: 18.6% / 12 = 1.55%
4,332.75 * 1.55% = 67.16
4,332.75 + 67.16 + 432 = 4,831.91 NEW BALANCE OF MARCO

a direct variation function contains the points ( -8, -6 ) and (12,9 ) . Which equation represents the function ?
9966 [12]

Answer:

y = \frac{3}{4} x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the quantities vary directly then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use either of the 2 given points

Using (12, 9), that is x = 12 when y = 9, then

k = \frac{y}{x} = \frac{9}{12} = \frac{3}{4}

y = \frac{3}{4} x ← equation of variation
