Our equation is:

(x/-4)+11=5; we need to get x by itself in order to solve. Let's subtract 11 from both sides. (x/-4)=-6; let's now multiply both sides by -4. x=24; let's check to see if x is 24 by plugging it in.

24/-4=-6+11=5

So, x=24.

A footbridge is in the shape of an arc of a circle. the bridge is 10 ft tall and 27 ft long, horizontally. what is the radius of
lilavasa [31]
See the picture attached to better understand the problem

we know that
<span>the bridge is 10 ft tall and 27 ft long, horizontally
so
BC=10 ft
DE=27 ft---------> DC=27/2----> 13.5 ft
DA=r (radius of the circle)
AC=r-10

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem
DA</span>²=DC²+AC²<span> ------> r</span>²=13.5²+(r-10)²----> r²=182.25+r²-20r+100
20r=282.25--------> r=14.11 ft

the answer is
r=14.11 ft

2(x+y) = 61-2y<br> 4x-4 = 18-3y
Naddik [55]

Answer:

x = 8

y = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a system of equations called simultaneous equations. We shall solve it by elimination method Step 1We shall label the equations (1) and (2)−3y−4x=−11.....(1)3y−5x=−61......(2)Step 2Multiply each term in equation (1) by 1 to give equation (3)1(-3y-4x=-11).....(1)-3y-4x=-11....(3)Step 3Multiply each term in equation 2 by -1 to give equation (4)-1(3y−5x=−61)......(2)-3y+5x=61.....(4)Step 4-3y-4x=-11....(3)-3y+5x=61.....(4)Subtract each term in equation (3) from each term in equation (4)-3y-(-3y)+5x-(-4x)=61-(-11)-3y+3y+5x+4x=61+110+9x=729x=72Step 5Divide both sides of the equation by 9, the coefficient of the unknown variable x to find the value of x 9x/9 = 72/9x = 8Step 6Put in x = 8 into equation (2)3y−5x=−61......(2)3y-5(8)=-613y-40=-61Collect like terms by adding 40 to both sides of the equation 3y-40+40=-61+403y=-21Divide both sides by 3, the coefficient of y to find the value of y 3y/3=-21/3y=-7Therefore, the values of x and y that satisfy the equations are 8 and -7 respectively
