If we are eliminating x, we would multiply the 2nd equation by -5
5x + 18y = 23
x + 3y = 2....multiply by -5
-----------------
5x + 18y = 23
-5x - 15y = - 10 (result of multiplying by -5)
----------------add
0 + 3y = 13.....bye-bye x :)
Answer:
AD=5.82 units
Step-by-step explanation:
tan 31=3/BD
0.6009=3/BD
BD=5
AD^2=3^2 + 5^2
AD^2=9+25=34
AD=5.82
We can use proportion to get the result
10 ----------- 5%
x ------------- 100%
Crossmultiply proportion
5*x=10*100
5x=1000 /:5 divide both sides by 5
x=1000:5
x=200 - its the answer
