Solve simultaneously:

<span>15x-8y=52 and
6x+14y=38
</span>
Let's solve this system thru elimination by addition/subtraction:

Let's get rid of the x terms.
To do this, mult. the first eqn. by -6 and the second by 15.  (This is not the only way in which we can do this!!)  We get  

-90x + 48y = -312
90x   +210y = 570
--------------------------
Add all 3 columns together.  We end up with:

258y = 258, so y = 1.  You can find x by subst. 1 for y in either of the given equations.

If you'd like more help, please be specific about what you want.

A is correct because the f represents the lilies and then you add the 15 because that is how much roses there are going to be. Lastly just multiply the ten that will give you the answer

What's the formula for a triangle if your trying to find the area?
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

A=\frac{1}{2}bh

Step-by-step explanation:

In the formula listed above, "A" represents the area of the triangle, "b" represents the base of the triangle, and "h" is the height/altitude of the triangle.

This makes sense because the area of a square is base*height and a triangle is half of a square.
