Given:
64 total students
x = drama club students
y = yearbook club students

x = y + 10
y = 64 - x

y = 64 - x
y = 64 - (y + 10)
y = 64 - y - 10
y + y = 64 - 10
2y = 54
2y/2 = 54/2
y = 27

x = y + 10
x = 27 + 10
x = 37 

To check:

x + y = 64
37 + 27 = 64
64 = 64

The slope of AC is -0.4

Proof:
In triangles ABC and DBE,
∠DBE is common to both triangles.
AB = 2DB (D is the midpoint of the interval AB)
Also, BC = 2BE (E is the midpoint of the interval BC)

Thus triangles ABC and DBE are similar in the ratio 2:1

Since, they are similar, ∠BDE must equal ∠BAC (corresponding angles in similar triangles)

If ∠BDE = ∠BAC, DE must be parallel to AC (corresponding angles are equal along parallel lines)
Thus, the slope of AC = the slope of DE
Thus, the slope of AC is -0.4

Substitute this equation x+3y=18 & -x-4y=-25
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

 {x,y} = {3/7,-43/7}

Step-by-step explanation:

System of Linear Equations entered :

  [1]    x + 3y = -18

  [2]    -x + 4y = -25

Graphic Representation of the Equations :

   3y + x = -18        4y - x = -25  

 

 

Solve by Substitution :

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x  

 

 [1]    x = -3y - 18

// Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [2]

  [2]    -(-3y-18) + 4y = -25

  [2]    7y = -43

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  y  

  [2]    7y = - 43  

  [2]    y = - 43/7  

// By now we know this much :

   x = -3y-18

   y = -43/7

// Use the  y  value to solve for  x  

   x = -3(-43/7)-18 = 3/7  

Solution :

{x,y} = {3/7,-43/7}

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

3(x+14)=42

Divide both sides by 3:

x+14=14

Subtract 14:

x=0

The value of x is 0

Answer:

The cross section would be a square.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 ends of the rectangular prism are squares while the other 4 sides are rectangles. A cross section would be perpendicular to the rectangles, making the cross section a square. The cross section would be parallel to the end squares.
