Cramer's rule works as follows:
x+3y=16
3x+y=8
Then
x=Dx/D
y=Dy/D
where Dx,Dy,D are 2x2 matrices formed from of coefficients and right hand side.
D=
1 3
3 1
=1-9=-8
Dx=matrix D with first column replaced by the vector [16,8]=
16,3
8 1
=16-24
=-8
Dy=matrix D with second column replaced by the vector [16,8]=
1 16
3 8
=8-48
=-40
Therefore
x=-8/-8=1
y=--40/-8=5
Check:
x+3y=1+3(5)=16
3x+y=3(1)+5=8 ok.
Work backwards with pythagoras' theorem:
c^2=a^2+b^2
Here, a and b both equal to x. Therefore, you can write this as 8^2=2x^2. So 64=2x^2. Sqrt on both sides to give you 8=2x, hence x=4. However I must warn you that this working out may have a flaw, as I found that x actually equals to 5.66
The slope would be 0 because if you put in the coordinates with the formula, you would get the slope as 0. This also makes sense because both points have the same y point, so that means that the line wasn’t travelling up or down. And since it was only going through -8 that would be the y-intercept.
Answer:
146
Step-by-step explanation:
j=3 13 = 39
g=5 13 = 65
a=4 13 = 42
The average low temperature would be 5+8+6+5+10+7+1 all divided by 7, so the answer is 6° celsius.
