Compute x/y if

x + 1/y = 4 and

y + 1/x = 1/4

Please explain the process on how to solve it- I'll give brainliest!

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Y = 1/4x-1

X = 4y-1

Step-by-step explanation:

layout the equations :

x+1/y = 4        y+1/x = 1/4

solve the equations, remember to switch sides switch signs solving the equations will give us the value of the letter

x+1/y = 4

x+1 = 4y

x=4y-1

***

y+1/x = 1/4

y+1  = 1/4x

y = 1/4x-1

Answer 2

Let first consider the equations one by one and will be solving one by one ;

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf x+\dfrac{1}{y}=4}[/tex]

Multiplying both sides by y will lead ;

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf xy+1=4y}[/tex]

[tex]{:\implies \quad \boxed{\sf xy=4y-1\quad \cdots \cdots(i)}}[/tex]

Now, consider the second equation which is ;

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf y+\dfrac{1}{x}=\dfrac14}[/tex]

Multiplying both sides by x will yield

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf xy+1=\dfrac{x}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf xy=\dfrac{x}{4}-1}[/tex]

[tex]{:\implies \quad \boxed{\sf xy=\dfrac{x-4}{4}\quad \cdots \cdots(ii)}}[/tex]

As LHS of both equations (i) and (ii) are same, so equating both will yield;

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf 4y-1=\dfrac{x-4}{4}}[/tex]

Multiplying both sides by 4 will yield

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf 16y-4=x-4}[/tex]

[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf 16y=x}[/tex]

Dividing both sides by y will yield :

[tex]{:\implies \quad \boxed{\bf{\dfrac{x}{y}=16}}}[/tex]

Hence, the required answer is 16

Given the function f(x)=5x+4, find f(x-2)

Answers

Answer:

5x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 5x + 4

f(x-2) = 5(x -2) + 4

f(x-2) = 5x - 10 + 4

f(x-2) = 5x - 6

I hope this helps!

Answer:

5x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in x-2 to the function:

f(x - 2) = 5(x - 2) + 4

= 5x - 10 + 4

= 5x - 6

Answers

Answer:

C. √2 - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If we draw a square from the center of the large circle to the center of one of the small circles, we can see that the sides of the square are equal to the radius of the small circle (see attached diagram)

Let r = the radius of the small circle

Using Pythagoras' Theorem [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

(where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse, of a right triangle)

to find the diagonal of the square:

[tex]\implies r^2 + r^2 = c^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies 2r^2 = c^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies c=\sqrt{2r^2}[/tex]

So the diagonal of the square = [tex]\sqrt{2r^2}[/tex]

We are told that the radius of the large circle is 1:

⇒ Diagonal of square + r = 1

[tex]\implies \sqrt{2r^2}+r=1[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sqrt{2r^2}=1-r[/tex]

[tex]\implies 2r^2=(1-r)^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies 2r^2=1-2r+r^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies r^2+2r-1=0[/tex]

Using the quadratic formula to calculate r:

[tex]\implies r=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]\implies r=\dfrac{-2\pm\sqrt{2^2-4(1)(-1)}}{2(1)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies r=\dfrac{-2\pm\sqrt{8}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\implies r=-1\pm\sqrt{2}[/tex]

As distance is positive, [tex]r=-1+\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{2}-1[/tex]  only

A basket contains the following pieces of fruit: 3 apples, 4 oranges, 4 bananas, 2 pears, and 3 peaches. Jonas picks a fruit at random and does not replace it. Then Beth picks a fruit at random. What is the probability that Jonas gets an orange and Beth gets a peach?

Answers

Answer:

Probability that Jonas gets an orange is 1/4 and Beth gets a peach is 3/16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

The total number of fruits n(S) = 3 + 4 + 4 + 2 + 3

= 16

The total number of oranges n(O) = 4

The total number of peas n(P) = 3

Now,

P(O) = n(O)/n(S)

= 4/16

= 1/4

Again,

P(P)= n(P)/n(S)

= 3/16

For finding the surface area of the entire cylinder, we need to use the proper formula which is [tex]SA = 2 \pi r h + 2 \pi r^2[/tex]. Since the problem already gives us the radius and height, we can easily plug in the numbers. The equation should now look like this: [tex]SA = 2 * 3.14*3*6 +2*3.14*3^2[/tex].

After multiplying and adding all the numbers in the formula, we get a surface area of 169.56 yards squared.

For the lateral surface area, we can just subtract the [tex]2 \pi r^2[/tex] part from the formula.

[tex]SA = 2 * 3.14* 3 *6[/tex], which is 113.04 yards squared for the lateral surface area.

It’s asking for total and lateral surface area.
Total = 2pi x r x h + 2pi x r to the power of 2
Lateral = 2pi x r x h
For total it would be 2 x pi x 3 x 6 + 2 x pi x 3 to the power of 2 ( pi = 3.14)
For lateral it would be 2 x pi x 3 x 6
Just put that in the calculator and you’ll get your answer
Btw r = radius and radios is the half of something so if you see the line on the base go all the way you know it’s the diameter and not the radius so you would have to divide it by 2 to get your radius.
Total = 131.88
Lateral = 113.04

What is the slope of the table.

Answers

Answer:

slope is -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope is:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = slope

y2 = y-coordinate of second point

y1 = y-coordinate of first point

x2 = x-coordinate of second point

x1 = x-coordinate of first point

We can choose our first and second points as any points on the table, but we will choose the first andd second points which are (-5,10) and (-3,0).

y2 = 0

y1 = 10

x2 = -3

x1 = -5

m = (0-10)/(-3-(-5))

m = (-10)/(-3+5)

m = (-10)/(2)

m = -5

A bakery's specialty flour is a mixture of almond and coconut flour. The ratio of almond flour to coconut flour is 7:38 by volume. If a backery uses 180 cups of the flour mixture in a day, what is the volume, in cups, of the almond flour used?

Answers

Given ↷Ratio of almond flour to coconut flour ⇢7:38Number of cups of flour used in a dayㅤㅤㅤ ⇢ 180 cupsTo find ↷volume of almond flour in 180 cupsAnswer ↷28 cupsSolution ↷

According to the question,

The ratio of almond flour to coconut flour is 7:38

so,

the volume of the almond flour used in a day ,in terms of cups would be

[tex] \rightarrow \frac{180 \times 7 }{7 + 38} \\ [/tex]

[tex] \rightarrow \frac{1,260 }{45} \\ [/tex]

[tex] \rightarrow28[/tex]

hence ,28 cups of almond flour would be required to meet the need to prepare the mixture for a day.

______________________________________

volume of coconut flour required in a day ,in terms of no. of cups would be

[tex] \rightarrow \frac{180 \times 38 }{7 + 38} \\ [/tex]

[tex] \rightarrow \frac{6,840 }{45} \\ [/tex]

[tex] \rightarrow152[/tex]

hence ,152 cups of coconut flour are required to make the mixture.

Given that,

The ratio of almond flour to coconut flour is 7:38

7:38 = 28:152

7:38 = 7 :38

write the equation for each translation of the graph of y=| 1/2x-2|+3
One unit up
one unit down

Answers

The equation for each translation of the graph of y=| 1/2x-2|+3 is

g(x)=| 1/2x-3/2|+3.

Given that,

[tex]y=| 1/2x-2|+3[/tex]

Translate the above one unit to the left

Replace y with f(x)

[tex]f(x)=| 1/2x-2|+3[/tex]

What is the meaning of translation?

A translation is a movement of the graph either horizontally parallel to the -axis or vertically parallel to the -axis.

When an absolute function is translated to the left, the resulting function is,

[tex]g(x)=f(x-h)[/tex]

Because it is been translated 1 unit to the left, h = -1

[tex]g(x)=f(x-(-1))[/tex]

[tex]g(x)=f(x+1)[/tex]

Now we calculate f(x+1)

[tex]f(x+1)=| 1/2(x+1)-2|+3[/tex]

[tex]f(x+1)=| 1/2x+1/2-2|+3\\f(x+1)=| 1/2x+1-4/2|+3\\[/tex]

[tex]f(x+1)=| 1/2x+(-3)/2|+3\\\\f(x+1)=| 1/2x-3/2|+3[/tex]

We have,g(x)=f(x+1)

[tex]g(x)=| 1/2x-3/2|+3[/tex]
