How do I use elimination process when solving two variable equations?

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.

What is the length of the diagonal of the triangle?
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

21.25

Step-by-step explanation:

use the Pythagorean theorem, it is given that the shape is a rectangle so all opposite sides are congruent and all angles are right, since we know that the diagonal forms a right triangle we can use the pythagorean theorem

the Pythagorean theorm is a^2+b^2=c^2 where a and b are the legs (in this case the side of the triangle) and c is the hypotenuse which is the longest side in a right triangle

17^2+12.75^2=x^2

x^2=7225/16

now take the square root of both sides and you get -21.25 and 21.25

distance CAN NOT be negative so -21.25 isn't an option

6+f(28+b(4)=6+112f+4bf
b=6+112f/-4f
b=1*6^0+1*112f^0/1*-4f^0
b=1+1/1

Every number has its purpose in this case you start  at -3 then the negative sign tells you which way you are going but since we have another negative sign in between the number we go to the right instead of left with that said you put the point in number 4
