2x-5y=16    =>10x-25y=80
5x+3y=9     => 10x+6y=18
subtract one from the other: (6-(-25)y=(18-80), 31y=-62, y=-2
plug y=-2 in 2x-5y=16 to find x: 2x+10=16, x=3
12x+y=12*3-2=34

Follow the directions to solve the system of equations by elimination.
omeli [17]

Answer:

X= 1/2 Y= 5

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+7y=39-------------(1)--------×2

4x-14y= -68-----------(2)-------×1

16X + 14Y = 78--------(3)

4X- 14Y = -68----------(4)

Addy equation (4) and (3)

20X = 10

dividing bothsides by 20

20X/20= 10/20

X = 1/2

substitute the value of X into equation (1)

8X+7Y = 39

8(1/2)+7Y= 39

4+7Y = 39

7Y = 39-4

7Y = 35

dividing bothsides 7

7Y= 35/7

Y = 5

What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle below?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

The square oh the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

h² = (9\sqrt{2} )² + (9\sqrt{2} )² = 162 + 162 = 324 ( take the square root of both sides )

h = \sqrt{324} = 18 → D
