-4x-2y=-12 4x+8y=-24

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alla [95]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x=6\\ \\y=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of two equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}-4x-2y=-12\\ \\4x+8y=-24\end{array}\right.

Add these two equations (left side add to left side and right side add to right side):

-4x-2y+4x+8y=-12+(-24)\\ \\-2y+8y=-12-24\\ \\6y=-36\\ \\y=-6

Substitute y=-6 into the first equation:

-4x-2\cdot (-6)=-12\\ \\-4x+12=-12\\ \\-4x=-12-12\\ \\-4x=-24\\ \\x=6

The front of a house is composed of a trapezoid and a rectangle. The height of the rectangle is 12 feet. The base of therectangl
choli [55]

Drawing of the description:

To get the total area, we have to calculate the area of the rectangle and trapezoid, and then add them.

• Area of rectangle

A_r=b\times hA_r=30\times12=360ft^2

• Area of trapezoid

A_t=\frac{1}{2}h\cdot(b_1+b_2)A_t=\frac{1}{2}\cdot15\cdot(30+15)=\frac{15}{2}\cdot(45)=337.5ft^2

• Area of the front of the house

Finally, to get the total area we add them:

A_T=360+337.5=697.5ft^2

Answer: 697.5 ft²

If sin(y°) = cos(x°), which of the following statements is true?
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

<u>y = w and ΔABC ~ ΔCDE</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sin(y°) = cos(x°)

So, ∠y + ∠x = 90°  ⇒(1)

And as shown at the graph:

ΔABC is aright triangle at B

So, ∠y + ∠z = 90° ⇒(2)

From (1) and (2)

<u>∴ ∠x = ∠z </u>

ΔCDE is aright triangle at D

So, ∠x + ∠w = 90° ⇒(3)

From (1) and (3)

<u>∴ ∠y = ∠w</u>

So, for the triangles ΔABC and ΔCDE

  • ∠A = ∠C  ⇒ proved by ∠y = ∠w
  • ∠B = ∠D  ⇒ Given ∠B and ∠D are right angles.
  • ∠C = ∠E  ⇒ proved by ∠x = ∠z

So, from the previous  ΔABC ~ ΔCDE by AAA postulate.

So, the answer is <u>y = w and ΔABC ~ ΔCDE</u>
