For the first one x=-2
For the second one x= -1/3
Answer:
(- 2, - 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x - 3y = - 1 → (1)
x + 4y = - 6 → (2)
Rearrange (2) expressing x in terms of y by subtracting 4y from both sides
x = - 6 - 4y → (3)
Substitute x = - 6 - 4y into (1)
2(- 6 - 4y) - 3y = - 1 ← distribute and simplify left side
- 12 - 8y - 3y = - 1
- 12 - 11y = - 1 ( add 12 to both sides )
- 11y = 11 ( divide both sides by - 11 )
y = - 1
Substitute y = - 1 into (3) for corresponding value of x
x = - 6 - 4(- 1) = - 6 + 4 = - 2
Solution is (- 2, - 1 )
N+4=13
-4 -4
n = 9
the sum of a number(n) and 4 that is no larger than 13 is 9
This would be easy if you made more sense out of the question.
Answer:
AE = 15 cm; ED = 18 cm; AD = 15 cm (given)
Step-by-step explanation:
ΔBEC ~ ΔAED so ...
AD/BC = AE/BE = (BE+AB)/BE = 1 + AB/BE
Substituting given numbers (lengths in centimeters), we have ...
15/10 = 1 + 5/BE
1/2 = 5/BE
BE = 10
Similarly, ...
1/2 = 6/CE
CE = 12
Then the unknown sides are ...
AE = AB + BE = 5 + 10 = 15 . . . cm
ED = CE + CD = 12 + 6 = 18 . . . cm
