X=area of Sahara.
y=area of the Gobi Desert.
We suggest this system equations:
x+y=4000000
x=7y
solve by susbstitution method.
(7y)+y=4,000,000
8y=4,000,000
y=4,000,000 / 8=500,000
x=7y
x=7(500,000)=3,500,000
The area of Sahara=3,500,00 miles².
The area of the Gobi Desert=500,000 miles²
To check:
Te sum of their areas is : 3,500,000 miles²+500,000 miles²=4,000,000 miles²
Te area of sahara (3,500,000 miles²) is 7 times the area of the Gobi Desert (7*500,000 miles²=3,500,000 miles²).
Answer:
(x, y) = (2, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
I find it easier to solve equations like this by solving for x' = 1/x and y' = 1/y. The equations then become ...
3x' -y' = 13/10
x' +2y' = 9/10
Adding twice the first equation to the second, we get ...
2(3x' -y') +(x' +2y') = 2(13/10) +(9/10)
7x' = 35/10 . . . . . . simplify
x' = 5/10 = 1/2 . . . . divide by 7
Using the first equation to find y', we have ...
y' = 3x' -13/10 = 3(5/10) -13/10 = 2/10 = 1/5
So, the solution is ...
x = 1/x' = 1/(1/2) = 2
y = 1/y' = 1/(1/5) = 5
(x, y) = (2, 5)

The attached graph shows the original equations. There are two points of intersection of the curves, one at (0, 0). Of course, both equations are undefined at that point, so each graph will have a "hole" there.
Complementary angles equal 90°
So 90-36= 54°
Answer:
m<1 = 118
Step-by-step explanation:
The remote angles theorem states that when one extends one of the sides of a triangle, the sum of the two non-adjacent angles is equal to the measure of the angle between the extension of the side and a side of a triangle. One can apply this theorem here by stating that
(28) + (90) = m<1
Remember, a box around an angle signifies that its measure is (90) degrees.
Solve this problem by performing the operation,
118 = m<1
