Answer:

(14, -9)

Step-by-step explanation:

So you can solve this using substitution. When you're solving a systems of equations, you're looking for when (x, y) is the same for both equations, or in other words where the two linear equations intersect. Because of this we can solve for x or y in one equation and substitute it into the other equation, since the x and y in one equation should equal the x and y in the other equation.

Original equation:

x + 2y = -4

Subtract 2y from both sides

x = -2y - 4

Original equation:

2x + 3y = 1

Substitute -2y -4 as x

2(-2y - 4) + 3y = 1

Distribute the 2

-4y - 8 + 3y = 1

Combine like terms

-y - 8 = 1

Add 8 to both sides

-y = 9

Multiply both sides by -1

y = -9

So now that you know what y is, you can plug it into either equation to solve for x:

x + 2y = -4

Plug in -9 as y

x + 2(-9) = -4

Multiply

x - 18 = -4

Add 18 to both sides

x = 14

So this gives you the solution (14, -9)

a. The slope of the line passing through the points R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) is -3/4

b. The distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is 5 units

c.  The midpoint of the R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) is  (2, 4)

8.

a. The transformation rule is  (x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1)

b.

  • The x-coordinate is shifted 1 unit to the left and
  • The y - coordinate is shifted 1 unit downwards.

c. The image of B' the pre-image of B(5, 6) is (6, 5)

<h3 /><h3>7 a. How to find the slope of the line?</h3>

The slope of a line passing through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Given that

  • (x₁, y₁) = (3, 5) and
  • (x₂,y₂) = (-1, 2)

So, m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

m = (2 - 5)/(-1 - 3)

m = -3/-4

m = -3/4

So, the slope of the line passing through the points R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) is -3/4

<h3>b. The distance between the points</h3>

The distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is d = √[(y₂ - y₁)² + (x₂ - x₁)²]

Given that

  • (x₁, y₁) = (3, 5) and
  • (x₂,y₂) = (-1, 2)

d = √[(y₂ - y₁)² + (x₂ - x₁)²]

d = √[(2 - 5)² + (-1 - 3)²]

d = √[(-3)² + (-4)²]

d = √[9 + 16]

d = √25

d = 5 units

So, the distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is 5 units

<h3>7 c How to find the midpoint of the R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) </h3>

The midpoint of the the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂,y₂) is (x, y)  = [(x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2]

Given that

  • (x₁, y₁) = (3, 5) and
  • (x₂,y₂) = (-1, 2)

So, the midpoint (x, y)  = [(x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2]

(x, y)  = [(3 + (-1))/2, (5 + 3)/2]

(x, y)  = [(3 - 1)/2, (5 + 3)/2]

(x, y)  = [4/2, 8/2]

(x, y)  = (2, 4)

So, the midpoint of the R(3, 5) and H(-1,2) is  (2, 4)

<h3>8. a The rule for the transformation of point A(1, 4) to point B(2, 3)</h3>

Given that point A(1, 4) and point B(2, 3) we see that point B(1 + 1, 4 - 1).

Let pont A be (x,y).

So, point B = (x + 1, y - 1)

So, the transformation rule is  (x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1)

<h3>b. Describe the transformation</h3>

Since the transformation rule is   (x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1), we see that

  • the x-coordinate is shifted 1 unit to the left and
  • the y - coordinate is shifted 1 unit downwards.
<h3>c. The image of B' the pre-image of B(5, 6)</h3>

Since the transformation rule is  (x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1) and point B is (5, 6), thus the image of B' is

(x,y) → (x + 1, y - 1)

(5,6) → (5 + 1, 6 - 1)

(5,6) → (6, 5)

So, the image of B' the pre-image of B(5, 6) is (6, 5)

<u>Answer</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

9(3+√3) feet

<u>Step </u><u>by</u><u> step</u><u> explanation</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

A triangle is given to us. In which one angle is 30° and length of one side is 18ft ( hypontenuse) .So here we can use trignometric Ratios to find values of rest sides. Let's lable the figure as ∆ABC .

Now here the other angle will be = (90°-30°)=60° .

<u>In ∆ABC , </u>

=> sin 30 ° = AB / AC

=> 1/2 = AB / 18ft

=> AB = 18ft/2

=> AB = 9ft .

<u>Again</u><u> </u><u>In</u><u> </u><u>∆</u><u> </u><u>ABC</u><u> </u><u>,</u><u> </u>

=> cos 30° = BC / AC

=> √3/2 = BC / 18ft

=> BC = 18 * √3/2 ft

=> BC = 9√3 ft .

Hence the perimeter will be equal to the sum of all sides = ( 18 + 9 + 9√3 ) ft = 27 + 9√3 ft = 9(3+√3) ft .

<h3><u>Hence </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>perim</u><u>eter</u><u> of</u><u> the</u><u> </u><u>triangular</u><u> </u><u>pathway</u><u> </u><u>shown</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>9</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u> </u><u>3</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>√</u><u>3</u><u> </u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>ft</u><u> </u><u>.</u></h3>
