X-5y= 36
2x+y=-16 from the first line, x=5y+36, then substitue for x below

2(5y+36) + y =-16 so 10y+72+y=-16, so 11y+72=-16, so 11y=-88 or y=-8
y=-8, put this in your equation and you get x+40=36 or x=-4,
so your answer is x=-4 and y=-8

X-5y=36
x+y=-26

y=-26-x

x-5(-26-x)=36
x+130+x=36
2x+130=36
2x=36-130
2x=-94
x=47

What is the area of this figure?

Zolol [24]

$a \: = \: square \: area \: + \: triangle \: area \: + \: rectangle \: area \: \\$

$a \: = (3 \times 3) + ( \frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times 11) + (3 \times 11) \\$

$a = 9 + \frac{33}{2} + 33 \\$

$a = 9 + 16.5 + 33$

$a = 25.5 + 33$

$a = 58.5 \: \: {ft}^{2}$

1 Work out the sizes of the unknown angles. a 66° 63 50° 1090

Stels [109]

Answer:

x = 110°

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the exterior angles of a polygon = 360°

the exterior angle to 109° is

180° - 109° = 71° ( adjacent angles on a straight line )

then summing the exterior angles and equating to 360°

63° + 66° + 50° + x + 71° = 360° , that is

250° + x = 360° ( subtract 250° from both sides )

x = 110°

What are the zeros of the quadratic function f(x) = 6x² + 12x – 7?

julsineya [31]

Answer:

x = -2.47, 0.47

Step-by-step explanation:

Easiest and quickest way to do this is to graph the quadratic and analyze for x-intercepts.

Alternatively, we have to use the Quadratic Formula because we cannot factor the expression.
