Some basic dimensions could be 4x1 and 3x2
5 girls : 4 boys
5 + 4 = 9 students
= 27 students ( 5girls / 9 students )
*cancel students units*
= 27 ( 5 girls / 9)
= 15 girls
(x, y) = (
,
)
given the 2 equations
5x - 3y - 10 = 0 → (1)
x + y - 7 = 0 → (2)
rearrange (2) to obtain y in terms of x
y = 7 - x → (3)
Substitute y = 7 - x into (1)
5x - 3(7 - x) - 10 = 0
5x - 21 + 3x - 10 = 0
8x - 31 = 0 ( add 31 to both sides )
8x = 31 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = 
Substitute this value into (3) for y
y = 7 - x =
-
= 
Area=1/2 times base times height
for equilateral triangle, if base is x, then height is (x√3)/2
so if base is 6 then height is (6√3)/2=3√3
area is 1/2 times 6 times3√3=3 times 3√3=9√3 sqare inches
Answer:
{(5, –4), (–4, 5), (–5, 4), (4, –5)}
