The system of equations of two unknowns is formulated and solved.

\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ \left\{\begin{matrix} \ \ \ \dfrac{x}{y} = \dfrac{5}{7} \\ x^2+y^2 = 1184 \end{matrix}\right. \ \Longrightarrow \ x=\dfrac{5}{7}y  } \end{gathered}$}

\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ \left (\dfrac{5}{7}y \right )^2+y^2=1184\ \Longrightarrow\ 25y^2+49y^2=58016 } \end{gathered}$}

                                                              \large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{74y^{2}=58016} \end{gathered}$}\\\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ \ \  \ \ \ \ y^{2}=784 } \end{gathered}$}\\\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ \ \ \ \ \ y=\pm\sqrt{784}=\pm28  } \end{gathered}$}

                                                                  \large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \bf{ x=\dfrac{5}{7}(\pm 28)=\pm 20  } \end{gathered}$}

The fraction that satisfies the request is \bf{\dfrac{20}{28}} , since in \bf{\dfrac{-20}{-28}} the negative signs are canceled and the first fraction is obtained.

What is the area of the piece of red paper after the hole for
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

     \large\boxed{\large\boxed{47unit^2}}

Explanation:

The complete question is:

<em>A hole the size of a photograph is cut from a red piece of paper to use in a picture frame.</em>

<em />

<em>On a coordinate plane, 2 squares are shown. The photograph has points (-3, -2), (- 2, 2), (2, 1), and (1, -3). The red paper has points (- 4, 4), (4, 4), (4, -4), and (-4, -4).</em>

<em />

<em>What is the area of the piece of red paper after the hole for the photograph has been cut?</em>

<em />

<h2><em>Solution</em></h2>

<em />

The area of the piece of redpaper after the hole has been cut is equal to the area of the big square less the area of the small rectangle.

<u>1. Area of the big rectangle</u>

Vertices:

  • <em>(- 4, 4) </em>
  • <em>(4, 4)</em>
  • <em>(4, -4)</em>
  • <em>(-4, -4)</em>

<em />

The side length is the distance between two consecutive vertices:

The two points (-4,4) and (4,4) has the same y-coordinate, thus the length is just the absolute value of the difference of the x-coordinates:

  • 4-(-4)=4+4=8

The area of this square is    (8unit)^2=64unit^2

<u>2. Area of the small square</u>

Vertices:

  • <em>(-3, -2)</em>
  • <em>(- 2, 2) </em>
  • <em>(2, 1)</em>
  • <em>(1, -3)</em>

<em />

To find the side length use the distance formula for two consecutive points, for instance (2,1) and (-2,2):

      d=\sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}\\ \\d=\sqrt{(2-(-2))^2+(2-1)^2}=\sqrt{4^2+1^2}=\sqrt{17}

The area is:

          (\sqrt{17}unit)^2}=17unit^2

<u>3. Area of the piece of red paper after the holw for the photograph has been cut:</u>

<u />

Find the difference:

<u />

         64unit^2-17unit^2=47unit^2

<em />
