Distinguish whether the ordered pair (16, -3) is a solution to:

I believe you should try to plug in the ordered pair to see if the solutions work.

The ordered pair is (x,y) because x is on the x-axis and y is on the y-axis, therefore in (16,-3) the x=16 and y=-3.

Now substitute, meaning plug in those numbers into the equation.
For x+2y=10 would be 16+2(-3)=10
Now you just need to solve one side and see if it equals the other side.
16+2(-3)
First you use order of operations to solve this. PEMDAS. So you multiply 2(-3) first because of the parenthesis and it being multiplication.
16+(-6) and when you have a positive number adding a negative number it’s going backwards of the number line, basically meaning subtraction in a way. Sorry if this confuses you, if you already know how to do negatives and such nevermind this part.
But 16+(-6)=10
So now you look at both side of the equation, does the left side equal to the right? 10=10, so yes. It is a solution for that equation.

Now for the next equation, 7y=-21
Again, plug in the ordered pair (16,-3) into the equation. Remember that it’s (x,y).
There is no x in this equation so no need to worry about that; you only plug in y for this one.
7(-3) Now you multiply. Whenever you multiply a positive number and a negative number, the answer will always be negative. So 7(-3) is -21.
Now look if the left side is equivalent to the right. Does -21=-21? Yes. The ordered pair is a solution.

(16,-3) is a solution to both equations.

Hope this helps!

A trapezoid has an area of 36 square feet. If its height is 8, and one base is 4, what is the length of the other base?
Georgia [21]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

A=a+b/2 x h

4 = a

5 = b

8 = h

4 + 5 / 2 = 4.5

4.5 x 8 = 36

So the other base length is 5
