Substitute 3x+y=4 5x-y=22

1 answer:

4 0

Simultaneous Equations

3x + y = 4
5x - y = 22
The signs of the matching values aren't the same so we add the rest of the equations.
8x = 26
Divide both sides by 8 to get x = 3.25
Now substitute back into the first equation.
(3 x 3.25) + y = 4
9.75 + y = 4
Subtract 9.75 from both sides
y = -5.75

an equilateral triangle and a regular pentagon have the same perimeter. Each side of the pentagon is 3 inches shorter than each

klemol [59]

The answer is 4.5 for the side length of the pentagon and 7.5 is the side length for the triangle because 7.5*3(3 sides) = 22.5 and 4.5*5(5 sides)= 22.5. The perimeter is 22.5
