Answer:

x = 0, y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving a system of equations using substitution requires one side to be equal to a variable present in the equation, in this case x or y. We should simplify the equation using elimination before substituting to reduce the chance of error.

In order to use the elimination method, you have to create variables that have the same coefficient—then you can eliminate them. These equations arew already aligned for us.

                  3x - 10y=-70

             -<u>   4x +9y = 63</u>

                  -x + y = 7

Now, for substitution, the equation must be set to a variable.

                  -x + y = 7

                  y = x + 7

Next, plug the equation in where applicable in another equation.

                  4x +9(x + 7) = 63

                  4x + 9x + 63 = 63

                  13x = 0

                  x = 0

The final step of substitution is to plug the known variable into an equation to find the other variable.

                  3(0) - 10y=-70

                  0 - 10y = -70

                  10y = 70

                  y = 7

I guarantee you this answer is correct, I worked it out using other methods and graphing prior to submitting this answer.

Answer:

x = 0 , y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 10y =  - 70..............(1) \\ 4x + 9y = 63...................(2) \\ (1) \times 4 \\ 12x - 40y =  - 280...........(3) \\ (2) \times 3 \\ 12x + 27y = 189...........(4) \\ (4) - (3) \\ 67y = 469 \\  \\ y =  \frac{469}{67}  \\ y = 7 \\ put \: y = 7 \: into \: (1) \\ 3x - 10(7) =  - 70 \\ 3x - 70 =  - 70 \\ 3x =  - 70 + 70 \\ 3x = 0 \\ x =  \frac{0}{3}  \\ x = 0

A rectangular parking lot has a perimeter of 232 feet. the length of the parking lot is 36 feet less then the width. find the le
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Length: 40  Width: 76

Step-by-step explanation:

W is width, and L is length.

We know that the length is 36 less than the width, so L = w - 36.  Two times the width plus two times the length equals the perimeter, so set up the equation for the perimeter as:

232 = 2w + 2(w-36)

Now solve for w:

232 = 2w + 2w - 72

304 = 4w

w = 76

we now know that the width is 76, so solve for the length:

L= 76-36

L = 40

Find the coordinates of the point P that divides the directed line segment from A to B in the given ratio. A (-5, 12) B (11, 0)
zhenek [66]

Answer:

(7, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the midpoint formula

M(X, Y) = {(ax1+bx2/a+b), ay1+by2/a+b}

X = ax1+bx2/a+b

X = -5(1)+3(11)/1+3

X = -5+33/4

X = 28/4

X = 7

Y = ay1+by2/a+b

Y = 1(12)+3(0)/1+3

Y = 12/4

Y = 3

Hence the coordinate of P is at (7, 3)
