Answer:

The solution is  x = -2, y = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 4y = 12

x + y = 2

From the second equation: y = 2 - x.

Now substitute for y in the first equation:

2x + 4(2 - x) = 12

2x + 8 - 4x = 12

-2x = 4

x = -2.

Now find y by substituting x = -2 in the second equation:

- 2 + y = 2

y = 4.

Answer:

x = -2, y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Minus y from both sides of x+y=2

x=−y+2

substitute x in 2(−y+2)+4y=12

2y+4+−4=12+−4

2y=8

divide 2 from both sides

y = 4

substitute y in x+-4+2

x = -4 + 2

x = -2

What is the area of the following figure? ​
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

75 mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

use pythageron theorem to find the area of the triangle

7^2=5^2+b^2

b=4.489mm

multiply the of b by the height (5mm) to get the area. usually for the area of a triangle you divide by two, but because there is an identical triangle on the other side, it will be doubled, so dividing it by 2 is redundant.

4.489*5 = 24.49mm^2

Make a rectangle in the middle of the shape, creating a triangle on the right, like they did on the left.  That right triangle is included in the calcualtion above. the rectangle is base *height. The base is 15 - b which was 4.489. therefore the rectanlge is

5*10.1 = 50.5mm^2

add the areas together: 50.5 +24.49 = 75 mm^2
