Solve the system for (y) x+5y =-4; -x+5y=-16

Mathematics
1 answer:
kotykmax [81]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x - 5y= -4 (equ...1)

-x + 5y=-16 (equ...2)

From equ... 1

x= -4 + 5y (equ... 3)

Substitute equ...3 into equ...2

-4 + 5y + 5y=-16

-4 + 10y=-16

Collect like terms

10y=-16 + 4

10y=-12

Divide both side by 10

y= -12/10 or -1.2

Substitute y= -1.2

x=-4 + 5y

x=-4 + 5(-1.2)

x=-4 - 6

x= -10

Hence,x= -10,y=-1.2 or-12/10

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram has a base of length 2x + 1 and a height of x + 3 and has an area of
storchak [24]

Answer:

  • base 7
  • height 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given expressions, we can write the area as ...

  A = BH

  42 = (2x +1)(x +3) = 2x^2 +7x +3

  2x ^2 +7x -39 = 0

  (x -3)(2x +13) = 0

  x = 3   or   -6.5  . . . . .  these values make the factors be zero

In order for the parallelogram to have positive dimensions, the value of x must be 3. So, the base and height are ...

  base = 2(3) +1 = 7

  height = 3 +3 = 6
