Answer:
A. (1 2/3, 4 2/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
If you graph the equations, you see the lines intersect at the solution point:
(x, y) = (1 2/3, 4 2/3)
7We can see that line NM = JK so NM also equals 10.
We know NL = 23 and NM = 10 therefore, ML = NL -NM ML = 23 -13
ML = 10
The last thing to solve is the length of KL
KL = ML / sine 34
KL = 10 / 0.55919
KL = 17.9
Total fence length required = JK + KL + NL =
13 + 17.9 + 23
= 53.9 yards
Cost of Fencing = $3.50 * 53.9 =
