Answer:

The correct answer is D) (-2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this system of equations, start by multiplying the entire first equation by 2. Then add the two equations together. This will get the y's to cancel and allow you to solve for x.

-4x + 2y = -10

3x - 2y = 12

---------------------

-x = 2

x = -2

Now that we have the value for x, we can find y by plugging the x value into either equation.

-2x + y = -5

-2(2) + y = -5

-4 + y = -5

y = -1

What is the measure of the other acute angle ?

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

$62^{o}$

Step-by-step explanation:

All the angles in a triangle add up to $180^{o}$

Every right angle triangle has a right angle in it which is $90^{o}$

So to find the remaining angle, you do $180^{o}$ - $90^{o}$ - $28^{o}$ = $62^{o}$

PLEASE HELP

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

5.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

1) the formula to find the area of a square is l^2= area and l=length

in this case we already know the area but not the length

so we have to find the square root of 30 as the opposite operation needs to be used to find the missing number

√30= 5.47

5.47 rounded= 5.5

the length of one side is 5.5 in
