System of equations?

simultaneous equations
step 1: write the equations as follows:

5x + 2y = 7   (1)
-2x + 6y = 9  (2)

eliminate x or y. I am going to choose x, and I will eliminate it as follows: 

(x2)  ...5x + 2y = 7 (1)
(x5)  ..-2x + 6y = 9 (2)

now I will complete the multipication:

          10x +   4y  = 14 (3)
         -10x + 30y  = 45 (4)

Now add each of the terms as follows: 10x + (-10x)= 0 [i.e. they cancel], 4y and 30 y = 34y. and finally, 14 + 45 = 59 , so, you get:

34y = 59
divide both sides by 34 to get:
y = 1.735294118

but remember, in the question, you were asked to round your answer to the nearest tenth, that is the number straight after the decimal point, because 1/10 (or a tenth) = 0.1. So, since the next digit after this is 3 (i.e. lower than 5), the final answer is: 1.7

Solve the system of linear equations by elimination.<br> -3.x – 5y = -7<br> -4x + 5y = 14
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

(- 1, 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

- 3x - 5y = - 7 → (1)

- 4x + 5y = 14 → (2)

Add the 2 equations term by term to eliminate y , that is

- 7x + 0 = 7

- 7x = 7 ( divide both sides by - 7 )

x = - 1

Substitute x = - 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (1)

- 3(- 1) - 5y = - 7

3 - 5y = - 7 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

- 5y = - 10 ( divide both sides by - 5 )

y = 2

solution is (- 1, 2 )

Calculate the angle of depression, x, if the boat is 850 ft. away from the lighthouse and the lighthouse is 250 ft. high. Round
trapecia [35]

Firstly , we can draw diagram

we can see that

adjacent = 850

opposite =250

so, we can use tan formula

tan(x)=\frac{250}{850}

x=tan^{-1}(\frac{250}{850})

16.38

x=16.38

so,

angle of depression is 16.38 degree........Answer
