If x+y=10 and x-y=4 find the value of x2 y2

2 answers:

8 0

You can solve this by substitution.
x+y=10
x-y=4
===== add the equations
2x=14
x=7

Then plug in x into one of the equations

7+y=10
y=3

so x^2=7*7=49
y^2=3*3=9

Hope that helps!

The answer is: 1323 .
______________________________________
Explanation:
______________________________________
If x + y = 10 ; then: x = 10 - y ; and y = 10 - x ;

If x - y = 4 ; then x = 4 + y ;

___________________________
Start with: "x + y = 10" ;

Substitute "(4+y)" for "x" ;
___________________________
(4+y) + y = 10 ;
___________________________
4 + 2y = 10 ; subtract "4" from each side of the equation:
_________________________________________
4 + 2y - 4 = 10 - 4 ;
_________________________________________
2y = 6 ; divide each side of the equation by "2" ; to isolate "y" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "y";
_________________________________________
2y/2 = 6/2 ;
________________________________________
to get: y = 3 ;
________________________________________

Since: x + y = 10 ; substitute "3" for "y"; and solve for "x" :
__________________________________________________
x + 3 = 10 ; subtract "3" from each side of the equation:
___________________________________________________
x + 3 - 3 = 10 - 3 ;
___________________________________________________
to get: x = 7 ;
____________________________________________________
Now, the question asks: what is: x² * y² ?

x² * y² = 7² * 3³ = 49 * 27 = 1323 .

Answer:

x= 1 , y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

x-y= -3 => Equation 1

x+5y= 21 => Equation 2

Substitution Method:

Substitute Equation 1=>

x=y-3 <= Equation 3

Put x=y-3 in Equation 2:

x+5y=21

( y-3)+5y=21

y-3+5y=21

6y-3=21

6y=21+3

6y=24

y=24÷6

y=4

Put y=4 in Equation 1:

x-y= -3

x-4=-3

x=4-3

x=1

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

WXYZ can not be a rectangle because consecutive sides are not perpendicular to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given vertices are W(-4,3), X(1,5), Y(3,1) and Z(-2,-1).

Plot these points on coordinate plane and draw the quadrilateral as shown below.

$Slope=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Using this formula, we get

$m_{WX}=\dfrac{5-3}{1-(-4)}=\dfrac{2}{5}$

$m_{XY}=\dfrac{1-5}{3-1}=\dfrac{-4}{2}=-2$

Now,

$m_{WX}\times =\dfrac{2}{5}\times (-2)=-\dfrac{4}{5}\neq -1$

Here, WX and XY are two consecutive sides of quadrilateral but the product of their slopes is not equal to -1. It means they are not perpendicular to each other.

Since, all interior angles of a rectangle are right angles, therefore, WXYZ can not be a rectangle.

Answer:

Apples and Peaches

Step-by-step explanation:

It is convenient to compare the prices for 3 lbs of each of the fruits.

Multiply the price and quantity of Apples by 4:

... 4×(3/4 lb) = 4×$1.59

... 3 lb = $6.36 . . . . for apples

Multiply the price and quantity of Plums by 6:

... 6×(0.5 lb) = 6×$1.15

... 3 lb = $6.90 . . . . for plums

The two lowest-priced fruits are apples (6.36/(3 lb)) and peaches (5.37/(3 lb)).

_____

Comment on the best deal

No criteria are provided for determining the best deal. Though plums are higher-priced, they have somewhat higher polyphenol content than apples or peaches, so may provide the best deal in terms of nutrition per dollar.
