We start with:
y=2x-15
y=5x
Now, we have a perfectly set-up variable we can get rid of: <em>y.</em>
But we need to make either the top or bottom equation negative, so for simplicity, let's make the bottom one negative.
y=2x-15
(-y)=(-5x)
Now simplify.
-3x-15=0
Add 3x on both sides.
3x=15
Divide by 3 on both sides.
x=5
Let x=height. then base is x+4. plug what we know into the formula for the area of a triangle
A=½bh
16=½*(x+4)*(x)
32=x²+4x
x²+4x-32=0
(x+8)(x-4)=0
so x can be-8 our 4. when we plug-8 in for x we get a negative height. since a triangle cannot have a negative side length we discard-8 and try 4. height=4 and base=8
Answer:
9x+14y
Step-by-step explanation:
First Multiply the number outside of the brackets with the numbers inside the brackets. Ex:3 x 3x and 3 x -y
17y-2x+3(3x-y)+2x
That should get you to this.
17y-2x+9x-3y+2x
Next combine like terms.
14y+9x
Hope this helps!
42 6 7 times is 42 so the answer will be 42
