Okay for this one, i will start with x

3x - 4y = 16
5x + 6y = 14

I will multiply the top row with (-5) and the bottom with (3) 
so the new equation is

-15x + 20y = -80
15x + 18y = 42

After canceling (x) the new equation will be

38y = -38

Divide by 38

And you will get -1

Now substitute (-1) to (y)  to the old equation ( any of the old equation)
3x- 4(-1)= 16
x = 4

answers ( 4, -1)

miv72 [106K]

The answer is 47 minutes.

You basically imagine this: Debra has a phone card for $30. She used x minutes every 16 cents. You end up with $22.48.

30 - (0.16x) = 22.48

You can basically graph that equation and the x-intercept will show you your answer. x = 47

A sector of a circle makes a 127° angle at its centre. If the arc of the sector has length 36 mm, find
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

Approximately 68.5\; \rm mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the angle of this sector to radians:

\begin{aligned}\theta &= 127^{\circ} \\ &= 127^{\circ} \times \frac{2\pi}{360^{\circ}} \\ &\approx 2.22\end{aligned}.

The formula s = r\, \theta relates the arc length s of a sector of angle \theta (in radians) to the radius r of this sector.

In this question, it is given that the arc length of this sector is s = 36\; \rm mm. It was found that \theta = 2.22 radians. Rearrange the equation s = r\, \theta to find the radius r of this sector:

\begin{aligned} r&= \frac{s}{\theta} \\ &\approx \frac{36\; \rm mm}{2.22} \\ &\approx 16.2\; \rm mm\end{aligned}.

The perimeter of this sector would be:

\begin{aligned}& 2\, r + s \\ =\; & 2 \times 16.2\; {\rm mm} + 36\; {\rm mm} \\ =\; & 68.5\; \rm mm\end{aligned}.
