Answer:

X = -1, y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Reagange the first equation to the y=mx+b form first by subtracting both sides by 3x.

y= -3x + 7

then plug that in for y in the second equation and solve for x.

4x + 2(-3x + 7) =16

distribute the 2

4x - 6x +14 = 16

combine like terms

- 2x + 14 = 16

subtract 14 from both sides

-2x = 2

divide by -2

X= -1

now plug in x = -1 into the first equation to find y.

y= -3(-1) + 7 = 3 + 7 = 11

Answer:

1) 3x=7-y

X=7-y/3

2) 4x=16-y

X=16-y/4

Triangle A E C is shown. Line segment B D is drawn near point C to form triangle B D C.

∠BDC and ∠AED are right angles, is a piece of additional information is appropriate to prove △ CEA ~ △ CDB

Triangle AEC is shown. Line segment B, D is drawn near point C to form triangle BDC.

<h3> What are Similar triangles?</h3>

Similar triangles, are those triangles which have similar properties,i.e. angles and proportionality of sides.

Image is attached below,
as shown in figure
∡ACE = ∡BCD ( common angle )
∡AED = ∡BDC ( since AE and BD are perpendicular to same line EC and make right angles as E and C)
∡EAC =- ∡DBC ( corresponding angles because AE and BD are parallel lines)

Thus, △CEA ~ △CDB , because of the two perpendiculars AE and BD.

he books in a private library are classified as fiction and nonfiction. There are 400 books in the library. There are 40 more fi

vfiekz [6]

First, you have to set a system of equations to determine the number of fiction and of nonfiction books.Call f the number of fiction books and n the number of nonfiction books. Then 400 = f + n. And f = n + 40 => n = f - 40 => 400 = f + f - 40 => 400 - 40 = 2f => f = 360 / 2 = 180. Now to find the probability of picking two fiction books, take into account the the Audrey will pick from 180 fiction books out of 400, and Ryan will pick from 179 fiction books out of 399, so the probability will be<span> (180/ 400) * (179/399) = 0.20 (rounded to two decimals). Answer: 0.20</span>
