X = 3
y = 5
(3,5)
I used substitution because It seemed the easiest.
From the second equation I isolated it for Y to get y=20-5x

I plugged this in to the other equation for the Y value to perform substitution.

-7x + 8 (20-5x) = 19
then it's simple algebra

-7× + 160 - 40x = 19
-47x + 160 = 19

subtract 160 from both side and divide both side by -47 to isolate x.

-47x = -141
x=3

then to find Y, simple plug this into one of the equation above. or simply use this one that we already isolated for Y:
y=20-5x
y=20-5 (3)
y=5

hope that helps

Ella has a mass of 56 kg, and Tyrone has a mass of 68 kg. Ella is standing at the top of a skateboard ramp that is
natulia [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Mass of Ella is 56 kg and mass of Tyrone is 68 kg.

Position of Ella is 1.5 m on the ramp.

Potential energy of an object is given by :

P = mgh

It is directly proportional to the position of an object.

If Tyrone stands at the top of ramp at more height than Ella, it will have more potential energy. Hence, the correct option is (d) "If Tyrone stands at the top of a 2 m high ramp, his potential energy will be greater than Ella's."

Danny is installing a fence around his rectangular yard. His yard is 20 feet long by 45 feet wide. If the fencing he picked out
artcher [175]

Find the perimeter of the yard ( the distance around the yard).

A rectangle has two sides of each dimension.

The perimeter is 20 + 20 + 45 + 45 = 130 feet.

Now multiply the total feet by the cost per foot:

130 feet x 25 per foot = $3,250 total.

3n^2=6-17n I need Vertex form please.
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

3( n + \frac{17}{6} )² - \frac{361}{12} = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

3n² = 6 - 17n ⇔ 3n² + 17n - 6 = 0

3( n² + 2 × \frac{17}{6} n + ( \frac{17}{6} )² - ( \frac{17}{6} )² - 2 ) = 0

3( n + \frac{17}{6} )² - 3 × \frac{289}{36} - 6 = 0

3( n + \frac{17}{6} )² - \frac{361}{12} = 0
