Answer:

l-2l + l-5l = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that when you find the absolute value of something, its always positive. all we are doing is counting how far that number is from 0 on a number line. thats why, l-2l + l-5l = 2+5= 7

hope this helps!

Use the substitution method to solve the following system of equations: 3x + 5y = 3 x + 2y = 0 (1 point) (1, 1) (6, −3) (6, 1) (

PtichkaEL [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given.

$3x+5y=3$

$x+2y=0$

Take the second equation and subtract 2y to both sides.

$(x+2y)-2y=0-2y$

$x=-2y$

Substitute x into the first equation and simplify.

$3x+5y=3$

$3(-2y)+5y=3$

$-6y+5y=3$

$-y=3$

Invert.

$y=-3$

Substitute Y into your second equation.

$x+2y=0$

$x+2(-3)=0$

$x-6=0$

Add -6 to both sides.

$(x-6)+6=0+6$

$x=6$

(6, -3)

Find the area of a triangle formed by placing the vectors [3, 6] and [7, 1] tail-to-tail.

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

a. $A=10u^{2}$

b. View graph

c. 6.40u

Step-by-step explanation:

knowing that the triangle area is equal to base by heigh between two, then:

$A=\frac{bh}{2}=\frac{5*4}{2}=10u^{2}$

The length of the longest altitude of your triangle is:

$c^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}=5^{2}+4^{2}=25+16=41\\ c=\sqrt{41}=6.40u$

finally it can be seen that the position of the triangle does not matter, as long as the base and heigh are maintained, the area of the triangle will be the same
