Solve the System of Equations

Mathematics
1 answer:
Softa [21]3 years ago

<u>Answer: </u>

The ordered pair value of (x, y) is (6,-11)

<u>Solution: </u>

Given Equations are

Let 8x + 15y = -117 be Equation 1 and 4x + 9y=-75 be Equation 2.

Solving Equations 1 and 2 to get the value of x and y.

Multiply Equation 2 with 4.

16x + 36y = -300

On dividing the above expression by 2, we get

8x + 18y = -150 (Change the sign to get the value of y).  

-8x - 18y = 150 --- eqn 3

Now solving eqn 1 and eqn 3

8x + 15y = -117

-8x - 18y = 150  

By cancelling 8x and -8x in eqn 1 and eqn 3

-3y = 33    

 y = -11

Substitute the value y in Equation 2.

4x + 9 (-11) = -75

4x – 99 = - 75

4x= -75 +99

4x = 24

x=6

Hence the value of x and y is (6,-11).

There are two triangles, a big triangle and a small triangle that is inside the big triangle. Because the base of the triangles are parallel to each other( indicated by the arrow), and the small triangle is perfectly inside the bigger triangle, the sides of the triangles are proportional.

It is know that the base of the small triangle is 3.5, and the hypotenuse of the small triangle is 7cm. it is also known that the the hypotenuse of the big triangle is (7+8)=15 and the base of the big triangle is unknown.

Since the triangles are proportional,
to find the base of the big triangle

base(big)/hypotenuse(big)=base(small)/hypotenuse(small)

Plug in the numbers


x/15=3.5/7
x/15=1/2
x=15/2
x=7.5

The length of the base of the big triangle is 7.5cm

Can someone please help me? I don't understand this problem. How would they be the same???

Area of rectangle = 15 x 8
                           =120

area of parallelogram = 8 x 15 
                               =120
so, they have the same area, because the length of a rectangle is the same as the height of a parallelogram and also for the base.
