Answer:
x=-2.25,y=-2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The given system is
We want to solve the system for x and y that makes the system true.
Let us multiply the first equation by 3 while maintaining the second equation:
Subtract the current second equation from the first one.
Divide through by 12:
From the second equation we have:
This implies that:
This is a trapezoid and the trapezoid formula is b1 plus b2/ 2 times height.
17 plus 5 is 22. Divided by 2 is 11.
Now, we have to multiply 11 by the height : 5.
11 times 5 is 55 and that is your area. 55 units squared.
Answer:
12.5 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Height of tile = 2.5 in
Base of tile = 2*height of tile = 2*2.5 = 5 in
Length of other side of tile = 2.5 in
Required:
Area of the tile
SOLUTION:
Area of the tile = area of parallelogram
All we need to calculate the area of the tile, is the base and the height.
Area of parallelogram = base × height
Area of tile = 5 × 2.5 = 12.5 in²
0.25 = 
1.25 = 1 = 
there are 5 quarters thus each person woud get one quarter
