Answer:

y = 4

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 2y = 4 Eq. 1

3x - y = -7 Eq. 2

from the Eq. 2

3x = y - 7

3x + 7 = y Eq. 3

Replacing the value of the Eq. 3 in the Eq. 1

4x + 2(3x+7) = 4

4x + (2*3x + 2*7) = 4

4x + (6x + 14) = 4

10x + 14 = 4

10x = 4 - 14

10x = - 10

x = -10/10

x = -1

from the Eq. 3

3x + 7 = y

3*-1 + 7 = y

-3 + 7 = y

4 = y

Check:

from the Eq. 1

4x + 2y = 4

4*-1 + 2*4 = 4

-4 + 8 = 4

Mickey said that 45.7654 rounded to the nearest thousandth is 45.765 and Nicole said that it was 45.766. Who is correct and why?

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Mickey

Step-by-step explanation:

Mickey is correct because if you look at the number 45.7654 whenever you round to the nearest thousandth it'll be 45.765

5 is the thousandth place so look to the right. If the number to the right is greater than 5 it'll round to 47.766 but since it's a four ti rounds down.

Answer:

The first one. 4 times square root of 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The side of the equilateral triangle that represents the height of the triangle will have a length of because it will be opposite the 60o angle. To calculate the area of the triangle, multiply the base (one side of the equilateral triangle) and the height (the perpendicular bisector) and divide by two.
