Answer:

x = 3/4 and 9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite equations:

x+y=3;8x+4y=15

Step: Solvex+y=3for x:

x+y=3

x+y+−y=3+−y(Add -y to both sides)

x=−y+3

Step: Substitute−y+3forxin8x+4y=15:

8x+4y=15

8(−y+3)+4y=15

−4y+24=15(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−4y+24+−24=15+−24(Add -24 to both sides)

−4y=−9

\frac{-4y}{-4} =\frac{-9}{-4}

Step: Substitute \frac{9}{4} for y in x=−y+3:

x=−y+3

x = - \frac{9}{4} +3

x=\frac{3}{4} (Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

x=\frac{3}{4} and y=\frac{9}{4}

Answer:

(2.25, 0.75)

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=3

subract x from both sides

y=x-3

subsitute y

8x+4(x-3)=15

distribute

8x+4x-12=15

combine like terms

12x-12=15

12x=27

divide

<u>x=9/4 or 2.25</u>

Substitute in one equation

2.25+y=3

<u>y=0.75 or 3/4</u>

How can I find a?<br> (Trigonometric Ratios)
earnstyle [38]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

<u>Use</u><u> </u><u>cos</u><u> </u><u>ratio to</u><u> </u><u>find </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>value</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>'</u><u>a'</u><u>.</u>

As per given, we can state that it is a Right angled triangle, so taking 38° reference angle.

We get;

p = AC

b = 6

and h= a

Here, <u>Use</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>value</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>b</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>h</u><u> </u><u>and</u><u> </u><u>3</u><u>8</u><u>°</u><u> </u><u>angle</u><u> </u><u>to</u><u> </u><u>find</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>value</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>a</u><u>.</u>

\cos(38° )  =  \frac{b}{h}

\cos(38°)  =  \frac{6}{a}

0.7881 =  \frac{6}{a} [ cos(38°=0.7881]

0.7881a = 6

a =  \frac{6}{0.7881}

Therefore the measure of a is 7.61 Or 8.

3=J÷5 what does J equal
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

J = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find what the variable equals, you need to put it alone on one side of the equation. So to get rid of the 5, you have to do the opposite of division, which is multiplication. You multiply 5 and 3 to get 15. This will look like:

15 = J

Usually, there is something left to do on the number side, but in this case, there is nothing and you found your answer!
