Answer: The system of equations has NO SOLUTION.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

$y=mx+b$

Where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

Given the following system of equations:

$\left \{ {{4x-5y=5} \atop {-0.08x+0.10y=0.10}} \right.$

Write the first equation and solve for "y" in order to express it in Slope-Intercept form:

$4x-5y=5\\\\-5y=-4x+5\\\\y=\frac{-4x}{-5}+\frac{5}{-5}\\\\y=0.8x-1$

You can identify that:

$m=0.8\\b=-1$

Apply the same procedure with the second equation. Then:

$-0.08x+0.10y=0.10\\\\0.10y=0.08x+0.10\\\\y=\frac{0.08x}{0.10} +\frac{0.10}{0.10}\\\\y=0.8x+1$

You can identify that:

$m=0.8\\b=1$

The slopes of both lines are equal, therefore the lines are parallel and the system has NO SOLUTION.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH PRE CAL!!

Answer:

0.67 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram illustrating the question is shown in the attach photo.

In triangle DCA,

Opposite = H

Adjacent = b

Angel θ = 27°

Tan θ = Opp /Adj

Tan 27° = H/b

Cross multiply

H = b x Tan 27°... (1)

From triangle DSA,

The diagram illustrating the question is shown in attach photo.

In triangle DCA,

Opposite = H

Adjacent = 2.3 – b

Angel θ = 34°

Tan θ = Opp /Adj

Tan 34° = H/ 2.3 – b

Cross multiply

H = Tan 34° (2.3 – b) .. (2)

Equating equation (1) and (2)

b x Tan 27° = Tan 34° (2.3 – b)

0.5095b = 0.6745(2.3 – b)

0.5095b = 1.55135 – 0.6745b

Collect like terms

0.5095b + 0.6745b = 1.55135

1.184b = 1.55135

Divide both side by 1.184

b = 1.55135/1.184

b = 1.31 mi

Substitute the value of b into any of the equation to obtain the height (H). In this case we shall use equation 1.

H = b x Tan 27°

H = 1.31 x Tan 27°

H = 0.67 mi

Therefore, the height of the drone is 0.67 mi

The cost function for a certain company is C = 20x + 700 and the revenue is given by R = 100x − 0.5x2. Recall that profit is rev

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

x = 20

x = 140

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the equation for profit P

P = R - C

Substitute the equations for R and C then simplify.

P = 100x − 0.5x² - (20x + 700)

P = -0.5x² + 80x - 700

Find the values of x when profit is $700

P = -0.5x² + 80x - 700

700 = -0.5x² + 80x - 700

0 = -0.5x² + 80x - 1400

This is in the standard form 0 = ax² + bx + c

Use the quadratic formula to find values of x

$x = \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}$

(Ignore Â)

Substitute a b and c.

a = -0.5

b = 80

c = -1400

$x = \frac{-(80)±\sqrt{80^{2}-4(-0.5)(-1400)} }{2(-0.5)}$

$x = \frac{-80±60}{-1}$

Split the formula at the ± so that there are two to get the two x values.

$x = \frac{-80+60}{-1}$

$x = \frac{-80-60}{-1}$

x = 20

x = 140

The profit will be $700 when x is 20 or when x is 140.
