7.
2X+2Y+4Z=10 --> x + y + 2z = 5
3X+3Y=15 --> x + y = 5
4X+12Y+4Z=44 --> x + 3y + z = 11
------------
Reducing often helps.
x + y + 2z = 5
x + y + 0z = 5
---------------- Subtract
2z = 0
z = 0
------
x + 3y = 11
x + y = 5
----------- Subtract
2y = 6
y = 3
------
x = 2
------
Do the others in a similar manner

Don't type in all those lines.

A guy on a bike leaves from point A going 18 MPH. One hour later a car leaves from the same point going 45 MPH. How long will it take for the car to catch the guy on the bike?
---------------------
The bike is 18 miles ahead (and still moving at 18 mph)
The car gains on the bike at 27 mph (45-18)
18 miles/27 mph = 2/3 hours = 40 minutes.

-------------------
Train A goes 50 miles from 525 to 455 (100 mph x 1/2 hour)
Train B gains on train A at 4 mph (104 - 100)
50 miles/4 mph = 12.5 hours

Find the endpoint of the radius of the unit circle that makes the given angle with the positive horizontal axis. 7 pi / 6 radians
------------------
7pi/6 = 210 degrees
x = cos(210) = -sqrt(3)/2 =~ 0.86603
y = sin(210) = -0.5
--> (-sqrt%283%29%2F2,-1%2F2)


Trigonometry-basics/277867: Could you please show me the steps to solve sin 2 y = cos 4 y for y, where 0 degrees = y or < y < 360 degrees. I'm constantly messing up big time somewhere hopefully steps will help.

sin 2y = cos4 y for y, where 0 degrees = y or < y < 360 degrees
-------------
sin(2y) = cos^2(2y) - sin^2(2y)
sin(2y) = 1-sin^2(2y) - sin^2(2y) = 1 - 2sin^2(2y)
2sin^2(2y) + sin(2y) - 1 = 0 a quadratic in sin(2y)
(2sin + 1)*(sin - 1) = 0
sin(2y) = -1/2
sin(2y) = 1
---------------
sin(2y) = 1
2y = 90, 450
y = 45, 225
--------------
sin(2y) = -1/2
2y = 210, 330, 570, 690
y = 105, 165, 285, 345
All y values in degrees

Find the slope and the y- intercept of the line. Write the fractional answer in lowest terms.
y= -7/4x - 1/9 the slope is:??? the y intercept is(0, )
This is in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b
m = slope
b is the y-intercept
m = -7/4 slope
b = -1/9 --> (0,-1/9)
----------------------------
2. find the slope and the y intercept:
y=2.9x - 5 the slope is:??? the y intercept is (0,)
Same as above
--------------------
3. 3x = 4y + 24 (ditto as above)
Solve for y.

Company INC is making baseball gloves. Last month, with 60 workers, they made 1000 gloves. If they hire 15 more workers this month, how many gloves can be made at the same rate? What would my equation look like to solve this?
------------------------
60 workers made 1000 gloves
75 workers is 60*1.25
1.25 times as many workers will make 1.25 times as many gloves
1000*1.25 = 1250 gloves
---------------------------
You can set up a proportion
60:1000::75:g
60g = 75000
g = 75000/60
g = 1250 gloves
++++++++++++++++++++++
The other tutor calculated the output for 15 workers, not for 15 MORE workers.

If it passes thru one nappe, but not both, it's an ellipse.
If it passes thru both, it's a hyperbola.
