Answer:
(-6,0)
(3,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the second equation and flip it around so the y on the left ends up on the right and the 4x on the right ends up on the left. This makes all negatives positive and all positives negative. -4x + 12 = y
Then add the first equation to the second equation
4x +12 = -7y
<u>-4x + 12 </u>=<u> y </u> this eliminates the x's
<u>24</u> = -<u> 6y</u> then divide by - 6
- 6 - 6
- 4 = y<u>
</u>So if you know that y = negative 4, you can substitute into either equation. I pick the second one because I am a lazy person.
-y + 12 = 4 x
-(-4) + 12 = 4 x combine your numbers<u>
</u> <u> 16 </u> = <u>4 x </u> then divide by 4<u>
</u> 4 = x
So your solution is: x = 4 and y = -4 or this is also written (4, -4)
Does that work for you?
Answer:
10.7 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The ladder, the ground and the wall form the shape of a right angled triangle as shown in the image below.
The hypotenuse of the triangle is 14 feet (length of ladder)
The base of the triangle is 9 feet long (the distance from the base of the ladder to the wall)
We need to find the height of the triangle. We can apply Pythagoras rule:

where hyp = hypotenuse
a = base of the triangle
b = height of the triangle
Therefore:

The wall reaches 10.7 feet high.
