-4x-2y=-12

4x+8y=-24

--------------------------add

6y = -36

y = -6

Substitute y = -6 into -4x-2y=-12

-4x-2(-6) = -12

-4x + 12 = -12

-4x = -24

x = 6

Answer

x = 6 and y = -6

The length,AB of the rectangular lot is 1 foot less than two times its width, BC. If the perimeter of the rectangular lot 394 fe

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

$AB=131\ ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The perimeter of the rectangular lot is

$P=2(AB+BC)$ ----> equation A

where

AB is the length

BC is the width

we have

$AB=2BC-1$ ---> equation B

$P=394\ ft$ ----> equation C

substitute equation B and equation C in equation A

$394=2(2BC-1+BC)$

solve for BC

$394=2(3BC-1)$

$394=6BC-2$

$6BC=396$

$BC=66\ ft$

<em>Find the value of AB</em>

$AB=2BC-1$

$AB=2(66)-1$

$AB=131\ ft$

Is the system of equations consistent, consistent and coincident, or inconsistent? y=3x+4y=3x+3 Select the correct answer from t

Genrish500 [490]

Answer: Inconsistent

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

y = 3x + 4 → m = 3, b = 4

y = 3x + 3 → m = 3, b = 3

These equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts so they are parallel lines <em>which means they will never intersect.</em>

NOTES

one solution: consistent & independent <em>lines cross</em>
infinite solutions: consistent & dependent <em>same line</em>
no solution: inconsistent <em>parallel lines</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt[6]{5} \times \sqrt[2]{5}$

$= {5}^{ \frac{1}{6} } \times {5}^{ \frac{1}{2} }$

$= {5}^{ \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{2} }$

$= {5}^{ \frac{1 + 3}{6} }$

$= {5}^{ \frac{4}{6} }$

$= {5}^{ \frac{2}{3} }$

$= \sqrt[3]{ {5}^{2} } (ans)$
