Given 4x+5y=2b and x+3y=b what is the value of 17y

4x + 5y = 2(x + 3y)

4x + 5y = 2x + 6y   <em>distributed 2 on the right side</em>

2x + 5y = 6y           <em>subtracted 2x from both sides</em>

2x = y                      <em>subtracted 5y from both sides</em>

         if y = 2x

then 17(y) = 17(2x)

          17y = 34x

Answer: 34x

Wha is the area of this
Korvikt [17]

Octagon, stop sign.

Eight isoscles triangles.   It looks like we're told the side is 9.9 and the height to the side (also called the apothem) is 12.

So each isosceles triangle has area  (1/2)(9.9)(12) and we have eight of them,

area = 8(1/2)(9.9)(12) = 475.2

Answer: 475.2

Usually we wouldn't be told 9.9 -- this is the baby version.  We know each of those isoscles triangles has unique angle 360/8=45 degrees, so the apothem and half the side of the octagon are a right triangle with acute angle 22.5 degrees.

The area of the right triangle with long leg 12, short leg x,

tan 22.5 = x/12 or

x = 12 tan 22.5

Twice that is what we're told is 9.9; let's check:

2x = 24 tan 22.5 = 9.941125496954282

The area of the little right triangle is

(1/2) 12 × 12 tan 22.5

and there are 16 of these

16 (1/2) 12 × 12 tan 22.5 ≈ 477.174

Please help on two math questions. I don’t understand how to do them.
Sidana [21]

When you represent intervals on the number line, you're including full dots, excluding empty dots, and you're considering numbers highlighted by the line.

In the first case, you've highlighted everything before -2 (full dot, thus included), and everything after 1 (empty dot, excluded). So, the set would be

x\leq -2 \lor\ x>1

or, in interval notation,

(-\infty,-2]\cup (1,\infty)

In the second case, you are looking for all numbers between -3 and 5. This interval is symmetric with respect to 1: you're considering all numbers that are at most 4 units away from 1, both to the left and to the right.

This means that the difference between your numbers at 1 must be at most 4, which is modelled by

|x-1|\leq 4

where the absolute values guarantees that you'll pick numbers to the left and to the right of 1.
