Answer:

(2, -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the two equations to solve.  The x-values are cancelled out.  Solve for y.

<em>    y = -2x - 4</em>

<u><em>+  y = 2x - 12</em></u>

<em> 2y = -16</em>

y = -8

Now, plug in the y-value into one of the equations to solve for x.

<em>y = 2x - 12</em>

<em>-8 = 2x - 12</em>

<em>(-8) + 12 = (2x - 12) + 12</em>

<em>4 = 2x</em>

<em>(4)/2 = (2x)/2</em>

x = 2

The solution is (2, -8).

Answer:

x=2, y = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-2x-4

y=2x-12

-----------------

Subtract the two equations

y=-2x-4

-y=-2x+12

-----------------

0 = -4x +8

Subtract 8 from each side

-8 = -4x+8-8

-8 = -4x

Divide by -4

-8/-8 = -4x/-4

2 =x

Then solve for y

y = -2x-4

y = -2(2) -4

y = -4-4

y = -8

Area of a regular hexagon with an apothem of 15 cm
Anton [14]

Answer:

area = 779.4 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

divide it into 6 equal equilateral triangles. Each corner of a triangle will be 60°.

tan 60° = 15/x

1.7321 = 15/x

x = 8.66 (this is one-half of the base of the triangle)

base = 17.32 cm

area of one triangle = 1/2(17.32)(15) = 129.9 cm²

129.9(6) = 779.4 cm²   (because 6 triangles make up the hexagon)

Plsss help it’s due today in an hour!!! (test grade)
Rudik [331]

Answer:

the area is 50.24 cm^{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find area of a circle is A=πr^{2}. A is area, and r is for radius. Since we have the diameter here, we just need to divide by 2 to find the radius. 8÷2=4, so there, the radius is 4. Now we need to square 4, and do 4x4, which equals 16. Now to multiply 16 by π, or 3.14. 16 x 3.14 = 50.24. The final answer is 50.24 cm^{2}. Hope this helped! :]
