This question is worded slightly strangely but I believe I understand it.
To eliminate x, multiply the second equation by 8, so that it becomes 4x + .8y= 96
Then you can subtract 4x on the top by 4x on the bottom to eliminate it.

Answer:
C. 12cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for the perimeter of the rectangle is ...
P = 2(L+W)
34 = 2(n +m)
Solving for m, we get
m = 17 -n . . . . . . . divide by 2, subtract n
__
The Pythagorean theorem gives the relationship between the sides and the hypotenuse
m^2 +n^2 = (n+1)^2
(17 -n)^2 +n^2 = (n +1)^2 . . . . . . substitute for m
289 -34n +n^2 +n^2 = n^2 +2n +1 . . . . eliminate parentheses
n^2 -36n +288 = 0 . . . . . . . put in standard form
(n -12)(n -24) = 0 . . . . . . . . . factor
n = 12 . . . . . . . . . . n=24 is an extraneous solution here
The value of n is 12 cm.
Answer:
C= 5, -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(9.5, 0) is in quadrant I. (-4, 7) is in quadrant II. (-1, -8) is in quadrant III.
Step-by-step explanation:
The negative signs say everything (quite literally). If there are no negative signs, it is in quadrant I. If there is one in the x-axis (the first number in an ordered pair), it is in quadrant II. If there are 2 negative signs, it is in quadrant III, and if there is one in the y-axis (the second number in an ordered pair), it is in quadrant IV.
