Find the intersection between thelines 2x + 3y = 5 and 3x + 4y = 6

An intersection point, is a shared coordinate. If the equations share a coordinate we can say they are "equal". There are two ways (algebraically) to find this point. Substitution or linear combination. Because the coefficients are different, let's use linear combination

First stack the equations on top of each other.

2x + 3y = 5
3x + 4y = 6

Next let's manipulate one or both of the equations to get coefficients that are equal, but opposite. For this I'm going to turn the coefficient of x into 6 and -6 respectively by multiplying the first equation by 3 and the second by -2 to get 

6x + 9y = 15
-6x -8y = -12

Now we can combine the equations with addition and the x's will cancel leaving a single variable (which we can solve)

y = 3

Now plug this back into either original equation to find the x coordinate.

2x + 3(3) = 5

2x + 9 = 5

2x = -4

x = -2.

So your intersection point is (-2,3)

Katarina [22]

The slope of the given line is 5/2.

<h3>How to get the slope of the line?</h3>

The general linear equation can be written in the slope-intercept form as:

y = a*x + b

where a is the slope.

Here we have the equation:

y - 4 = (5/2)*(x - 2)

If we isolate y and expand the product in the right, we get:

y =  (5/2)*(x - 2) + 4

y = (5/2)*x - (5/2)*2 + 4

y = (5/2)*x - 5 + 4

y = (5/2)*x - 1

This is the linear equation in the slope-intercept form, as you can see, the slope is equal to 5/2.

Answer:

x=48 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

since two sides are the same, the angles of those sides are the same, so you add 66 twice and subtract from 180.

Naya [18.7K]

Answer: 5.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the chord is 0.8 cm from the center of a circular ring and the radius r = 3 cm

Using pythagorean theorem to find part of the cord

3^2 - 0.8^2

= 9 - 0.64

= 8.36

Square root of the value above gives 2.89

The length of the chord = 2 × 2.89 = 5.782

= 5.8 cm (to the nearest tenth)
