Answer:

  -8

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let x and y represent the first and second numbers, respectively, we can write the problem statement as the equations ...

  • 4x +5y = -28
  • 9x +2y = 11

We can multiply the first equation by -9 and add 4 times the second equation to get an equation in y alone:

  -9(4x +5y) +4(9x +2y) = -9(-28) +4(11)

  -37y = 296 . . . . . simplify

  296/-37 = y = -8 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

The second number is -8.

Find the measurement of both complementary angles, if:
aniked [119]

We are given one angle is 3 times less than other.

Let us assume one angle measure is x degrees and another is 4x.

Because x is 3x less than 4x.            ( We can check 4x-x= 3x)

Sum of complementary angles is 90 degrees.

So, we can setup an equation

First angle measure + first angle = 90 degrees.

x+4x = 90.

Adding x and 4x, we get 5x.

So, 5x = 90.

Dividing both sides by 5, we get

5x/5 = 90.

x= 18.

So, one angle is of 18 degrees.

Another angle = 4x = 4 times 18 = 72 degrees.

So, required angles are of 18 degree and 72 degree.

What are the dimensions of the product?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

<h2>2 x 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions: m x n

m = number of rows

n = number of columns

When multiplying two matrices:

m x n *  n x k = m x k

MATIX 1:

m = number of rows

n = number of columns

MATRIX 2:

n = number of rows

k = number of columns

RESULTING MATIX:

m = number of rows

k = number of columns

2 x 3 * 3 x 2 = 2 x 2

Given m ll n,<br> find the value of x and y.<br> Can someone answer this today please
Artemon [7]

Answer:

  • x = 15, y = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

m and n are parallel and cut by a transversal

<u>Finding x</u>

  • 8x + 12 + 2x + 18 = 180 (consecutive interior angles sum up to 180°)
  • 10x + 30 = 180
  • 10x = 150
  • x = 15

<u>Finding y</u>

  • 8x + 12 = 3y - 18     (vertical angles are equal)
  • 8(15) + 12 = 3y - 18
  • 132 = 3y - 18
  • 150 = 3y
  • y = 50
