= 7x+2y=17

- (3x+2y=3)


= 7x+2y=17

 -3x-2y=-3


= 7x+2y=17

 -3x-2y=-3

= 4x = 14


= x = 14/4

Answer: x=\dfrac{7}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are:

7x+2y=17
............................................(1)\\\\\text{ and }3x+2y=32..............................(2)/tex]When we subtract equation (2) from equation (1) , we subtract the right hand side of equation (1) from the right hand side of equation (2) and similarly for left side equation, we get[tex]7x-3x+2y-2y=17-3\\\\\Rightarrow\(7-3)x+(2-2)y=17-3 \\\\\Rightarrow\ 4x+0=14\\\\\Rightrrow\ x=\dfrac{14}{4}=\dfrac{7}{2}

Thus when we subtract the given equations, we get x=\dfrac{7}{2}

Answer:

What ever it is, it should be minus. a = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

v1 = - 2

v2 = - 10

t = 4 seconds

formula

a = (vf - vi)/t

Solution

a = (-10 - (-2)) / 4

a = (-10 + 2) / 4

a = (-8)/4

a = -2 m/s^2

Solve the equation:<br><br> 3 - 2/9b = 1/3b - 7
aleksandrvk [35]
3 - \frac{3}{9} b = \frac{1}{3} b - 7

First, simplify \frac{2}{9} b to \frac{2b}{9} / Your problem should look like: 3 - \frac{2b}{9} = \frac{1}{3} b - 7
Second, simplify \frac{1}{3} b to \frac{b}{3} / Your problem should look like: 3 - \frac{2b}{9} = \frac{b}{3} - 7
Third, multiply both sides by 9 (the LCD of 9,3). / Your problem should look like: 27 - 2b = 3b - 63
Fourth, add 2b to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 27 = 3b - 63 + 2b
Fifth, simplify 3b - 63 + 2b to 5b - 63. / Your problem should look like: 27 = 5b - 63
Sixth, add 63 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 27 + 63 = 5b
Seventh, simplify 27 + 63 to 90. / Your problem should look like: 90 = 5b
Eighth, divide both sides by 5. / Your problem should look like: \frac{90}{5} = b
Ninth, simplify \frac{90}{5} to 18. / Your problem should look like: 18 = b
Tenth, switch sides. Your problem should look like: b = 18

Answer: b = 18

Legit about to be done with pathway please help, OFFERING 20 points k? please tho
puteri [66]

Answer:

The answer in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of one blue square

A=6^{2}=36\ ft^{2}  

step 2

Find the area of one orange triangle

A=(1/2)8^{2}=32\ ft^{2}

Part 1) 256\ ft^{2}

Divide the total area by the area of one orange triangle

256/32=8\ triangles

Part 2) 180\ ft^{2}

Divide the total area by the area of one blue square

180/36=5\squares

Part 3) 168\ ft^{2}

Let

x----> the number of blue squares

y ------> the number of orange triangles

we know that

36x+32y=168

Construct a table and prove different values for x and for y

we have

x=2, y=3

Two blue squares and three orange triangles

Area of blue squares

A1=2*(36)=72\ ft^{2}

Area of an orange triangles

A2=3*(32)=96\ ft^{2}

so

the area total is

72+96=168\ ft^{2}
