Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+4y = 17 _______ equation 1

-4x -7y= -18 _______ equation 2

muliply by 4 in equation 1

12x + 16y = 68 ______ equation 3

multiply by 3 in equation 2

-12x - 21y = -54 ________ equation 4

add equation 3 & 4

- 5y = 14

y = - 14/5

substitute y in equation 1

3x + 4 (-14/5) =17

3x = 17+ (56/5)

3x =( 85 + 56) / 5

3x = 141/5

x = 47/5

hence (a,b) = (47/5, -14/5)

Find what percent 591 is of 2364
kati45 [8]
To find the percent you would divide 591 by 2364 
591/2364=.25
.25*100 = 25% 
Does that make sense?

What is the area of this polygon? Please explain!
Anna71 [15]

to find the area, it helps to know all the lengths.

The vertical (V) piece near the 9 equals 2 and the horizontal (H) piece equals 6.

(to find the V piece, I did 10-8; for the H piece I did 15-9)

Next you have to find the area. I find its easiest to split them up into more shapes so I had a big rectangle and the little square piece at the bottom.

The measurements to multiply for the rectangle are 15*8= 120

the measurements for the little square are 9*2=18

Then you add the two numbers together 120+18=138.

The area is 138m

(259 + X) + 513 = 622 + (275 + 192)
vitfil [10]
1. add the factors in the parentheses together first (275+192) - end up with 467
2. add 622 and 467 (end up with 1,089)
3. subtract 513 from both sides of the equation
4. you will end up with the equation of (259+x) = 576
5. subtract 259 from both sides of the equation
FINAL ANSWER
x = 317
hope this helps:)
