I need help with elimination with substitution. The equations are 3x+4y=19 and 3x+6y=33

For elimination, multiply one whole equation by negative one (-1), then add or subtract according to your signs. After that, it will be a one-step equation.

3x + 4y = 19 3x + 4y = 19 3x + 4y = 19 -2y = -14 y = 7
3x + 6y = 33 -1 (3x + 6y = 33) -3x - 6y = -33 -14 / -2

Then you would go back and substitute the value of (y) back into either equation and then solve for the remaining variable (x). Finally, use both values to make an ordered pair.

3x + 4y = 19 3x = -9 x = -3 (-3 , 7)
3x + 4(7) = 19 (-9 / 3)
3x + 28 = 19

Good Luck

$32,750 + $375 = 33125
$33,125 * .06= 1987.50
$33,125+$1987.50= $35,112.50
$35,112.50+$50=$35,162.50

To estimate the height of a house Katie stood a certain distance from the house and determined that the angle of elevation to th

Nata [24]

the height of the house is $408ft$ .

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

Here we have , To estimate the height of a house Katie stood a certain distance from the house and determined that the angle of elevation to the top of the house was 32 degrees. Katie then moved 200 feet closer to the house along a level street and determined the angle of elevation was 42 degrees. We need to find What is the height of the house . Let's find out:

Let y is the unknown height of the house, and x is the unknown number of feet she is standing from the house.

Distance of house from point A( initial point ) = x ft

Distance of house from point B( when she traveled 200 ft towards street = x-200 ft

Now , According to question these scenarios are of right angle triangle as

At point A

⇒ $Tan32 =\frac{Perpendicular}{Base}= \frac{y}{x}$
