4x -  2y =  48 ⇒ 4x -    2y = 48
2x + 6y = -18 ⇒ <u>4x + 12y = -36</u>
                                 <u>-14y</u> = <u>84</u>
                                  -14    -14
                                       y = -6
                          4x - 2(-6) = 48
                            4x + 12 = 48
                            <u>      - 12 - 12</u>
                                    <u>4x</u> = <u>36</u>
                                     4      4
                                      x = 9
                                (x, y) = (9, -6)

4x-2y=48\\ \\ 2x+6y=-18

First we'll multiply the second equation by -2


-2\cdot (2x+6y)=-2\cdot -18\\ \\ -4x-12y=36

Now let's add the new equation and the first one.

(4x-2y)+(-4x-12y)=48+36\\ \\ 4x-4x-2y-12y=48+36\\ \\ -14y=84\\ \\ y=\frac { 84 }{ -14 } \\ \\ y=-6

We found y's value. We'll plug it in one of the equations to find x's value.

y=-6\\ \\ 4x-2y=48\\ \\ 4x-2\cdot -6=48\\ \\ 4x+12=48\\ \\ 4x=48-12\\ \\ 4x=36\\ \\ x=\frac { 36 }{ 4 } \\ \\ x=9

Solution ;

(9, -6)

Example Problem:
Billy goes to the nurse and she says Billy is 4 Feet 6 Inches. Billy's mom wants to know how many inches tall Billy is. How tall is Billy on Inches?

Solution:
Billy is 54 Inches tall.
=(4 × 12) + 6
=48 + 6
=54 Inches

Explanation:
You are converting the larger unit to the smaller one because you are trying to find how tall Billy is in inches and you know Billy is 4 feet 6 inches, so you need to convert 4 feet to inches.

A regular hexagon has an apothem of 14. 7 inches and a perimeter of 101. 8 inches. What is the area of the hexagon?.
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

748.23 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Area of a Regular Polygon</u>

\textsf{Area of a regular polygon}=\dfrac{n\:l\:a}{2}

where:

  • n = number of sides
  • l = length of one side
  • a = apothem

Given:

  • n = 6
  • l = 101.8 ÷ 6
  • a = 14.7

Substituting the given values into the formula and solving for A:

\implies \textsf{A}=\dfrac{6 \cdot \dfrac{101.8}{6} \cdot 14.7}{2}

\implies \sf A=\dfrac{101.8 \cdot 14.7}{2}

\implies \sf A=\dfrac{1496.46}{2}

\implies \sf A=748.23

Therefore, the area of the hexagon is 748.23 in²
