Answer:
y = 1, x = - 8
or
(-8, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
-x + 4y = 12
x + y = -7
add the equations together
0x + 5y = 5
5y = 5
y = 1
substitute y for 1 in one of the original equations to find x
x + y = -7
x + 1 = -7
x + 1 - 1 = - 7 - 1
x = - 7 - 1
x = -8
Answer:
The rug will fit. The rug is smaller than the parallelogram.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is testing to see if you can figure out how the rug may fit in the room.
The rug does fit. Here's how we know.
The only given information from the question is...
- Length and Width of the <em>Rectangular Rug</em>
- Area of the Parallelogram
Notice that you can use the Length and the Width to get the area of the Rectangular Rug. We need to find the area of the rectangle so we can compare it to the parallelogram.
The area of the Parallelogram is listed at : 108 sqft
The area of the rectangular rug is : 60 sqft
- <em>Area of rectangle = Length * Width</em>
- <em>6 * 10 = 60</em>
<em />
The question now asks us if the rug will fit in her room. Well, 60 sqft is less than 108 sqft. So, yes, it will fit.
Answer:
Sophia can drive 3672 miles using 18 galloons of gas.
Step-by-step explanation:
204 x 18 = 3672.
Area = length x width
24 = (n-3) x 2
24 = 2n -6
2n = 30
n = 15
Length is 15-3 =12, width is 2
24 = 12 x 2
