2x + 4y = 14
4x + y = 20......multiply by -4
----------------
2x + 4y = 14
-16x - 4y = -80 (result of multiplying by -4)
---------------add
-14x = -66....as u can see, ur y's cancel out

so ur answer is : 1st answer choice <==

** and just so u know, u could have multiplied the 1st equation by -2, and it would have cancelled out ur x's

The diagonals of a rhombus are 21 m and 32 m. What is the area of the rhombus?<br> 30 POINTS

Wittaler [7]

I have included attachment below

so since a rhombus is 2 pairs of paralell sides, we can cut it into 4 triangles
we can see that we can take the bottom 2 triangles and put them on top to get a rectangle that is width 21 and height 32/2 (16=height
area of rectangle=legnth times width=16 times 21=336 m^2

answer is 336 m^2

can some one explain to me how fractions work who ever explains it well gets brainliest, adding, subtracting, multiplying, divid

Ludmilka [50]

Adding: When adding fractions, you want to make sure that the denominator is the same for both fractions. If they are already the same, just add both the numerators to get the answer. For example,
$\frac{3 }{5} + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{4}{5}$
If the denominator is different in both fractions, you have to find the least common denominator, or LCD. The LCD is the smallest number that both denominators can multiply into. For example, say you need to find
$\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{3}$

Multiply both the numerator and the denominator of (1/3) by 2 to get (2/6). This way, the denominators are the same and you can find the answer.
$\frac{1}{6} + \frac{2}{6} = \frac{3}{6}$
In the case that one denominator does not go into the other, find the smallest number they both multiply into. For example,
$\frac{1}{3 } + \frac{1}{4}$
Here, the smallest number that both 4 and 3 multiply into is 12. Multiply both fractions by the correct amount to make both denominators 12. It would then become
$\frac{4}{12} + \frac{3}{12} = \frac{7}{12}$
Subtraction: follow the same rules as addition, except subtract the numerators instead of adding them.

Multiplication: multiply both numerators and both denominators.
$\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{4}{5} = \frac{8}{15}$
Division: Flip one of the fractions and multiply.
$\frac{2}{3} \div \frac{4}{5}$
Becomes
$\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{5}{4} = \frac{10}{12} = \frac{5}{6}$
Hope this explains it all. Let me know if you have any questions :)

2 (×+1)=3×-1 how to solve for x?

hram777 [196]

Hi. 2 (×+1)=3×-1 ; 2x+2= 3x-1 ;
2x-3x= -1-2 ; -x = -3 ; x=3. Hope this helps.
