The way you'd set it up would be sin55º/12=sinB/14 (you could also flip the equation so that 12/sin55º=14/sinB, you'll get the same answer either way). Multiply out so that its 14•sin55º=12•sinB, or 11.47=12•sinB. Divide both sides by 12 so that it looks like .96=sinB, then take arcsine of both sides (arcsin= x=sin^-1 theta+360n or x=180- (sin^-1 theta)+360n), which should give you about 72.88º and 107.12º.
Xy = 6
x = 2
2y = 6
y = 6÷2
y = 3
x + y = (2) + (3) = 5
Answer:
Your solution is (-10/7, 92/7)
Step-by-step explanation:
12x + y = -4
y = 2x + 16
To use substitution, we want to plug one variable's equation into the other equation.
We can see that y is already solved for us. Plug y into the first equation.
12x + y = -4
12x + (2x + 16) = -4
Combine like terms.
14x + 16 = -4
Subtract 16 from both sides.
14x = -20
Divide both sides by 14.
x = -20/14
x = -10/7
Now that we know x, we will plug it into one of the other equations.
y = 2x + 16
y = 2(-10/7) + 16
Multiply.
y = -20/7 + 16
Add.
y = -20/7 + 112/7
y = 92/7
Your solution is (-10/7, 92/7)
Hope this helps!
