<h3>Answer: The approximate solution is (-0.36, 2.08).</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system of equations :

x+5y=10 and 3x+y=1.

Let us solve the system of equation by substitution.

Solving second equation 3x+y=1 for y first.

3x+y=1.

Subtracting 3x from both sides, we get

3x-3x+y=1-3x

y = 1-3x.

Substituting y=1-3x in first equation x+5y=10, we get

x+ 5(1-3x) = 10.

x + 5 -15x =10

-14x +5 = 10.

Subtracting 5 from both sides, we get

-14x +5-5 = 10-5

-14x =5

Dividing by -14 on both sides, we get

-14x/-14=5/-14

x= -0.36.

Plugging x=-0.36 in second equation y=1-3x, we get

y = 1-3(-0.36) = 1+1.08 = 2.08.

<h3>Therefore, approximate solution is (-0.36, 2.08).</h3>

Answer:

B. 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

we know that

A translation and a reflection are rigid transformations, that produce congruent figures'

Remember that

Two figures are congruent if their corresponding sides and their corresponding angles are congruent

In this problem

Triangle JKL and Triangle J'K'L' are congruent

$JL=J'L'$

substitute the given values

$8=2x-4$

solve for x

$2x=8+4\\2x=12\\x=6$

Find the measure of each angle indicated

zaharov [31]

Answer:

For #6, it is 81 degrees, and for #8, it is 100 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

For #6, it is on the opposite side, so 81 degrees

For #8, it is also on the opposite side, so 100 degrees

Whenever there are parallel lines going horizontally, the angles measure the same on opposite sides, and to find the measure of an angle next to another angle, subtract it from 180.

The length of a rectangle is one inch less than three times its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 54 inches, find the

max2010maxim [7]

Answer: 20;

w - width

3w - 1 - length

54 in - perimeter

w + w + (3w - 1) + (3w - 1) = 8w - 2 - perimeter

The equation:

8w - 2 = 54 add 2 to both sides

8w = 56 divide both sides by 8

w = 7

3w - 1 = 3(7) - 1 = 21 - 1 = 20

Answer: The length = 20 in.
