To solve we need to use Pythagoras theorem ( a^{2} +  b^{2} =  c^{2} )

There are 2 possible lengths for x: hypotenuse or one of the 2 shorter sides.

Hypotenuse:
10^{2} + 21^2 = x^{2}
100+441= x^{2}
\sqrt{541} =  \sqrt{ x^{2} }
23.3≈x

Shorter leg:
10^2 + x^2=21^2
x^2= 21^2-10^2
x^{2}= 441-100 
\sqrt{ x^{2} } = \sqrt{341}
x≈18.47

Can anyone solve this for me
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

(-2, -4.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this equation with substitution.

x=2y+7

3x-2y=3

We can "substitute" 2y+7 for x into the second equation:

3(2y+7)-2y=3

Distribute the 3

6y+21-2y=3

Add like terms

4y+21=3

Subtract 21 from both sides

4y=-18

Divide both sides by 4 to isolate y

y=-4.5

Plug -4.5 back in for y:

x=2(-4.5)+7

x=-9+7

x=-2

(x,y)=(-2,-4.5)
