Answer:
x =
or 0.706
or 1.735
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 2y=7 ----->(eq 1)
- 2x + 6y=9 ----->(eq 2)
Multiply (eq 1) with 3
3×(5x + 2y) = 3×7
15x + 6y = 21 ----->(eq 3)
substract (eq 3) from (eq 2)
- 2x + 6y - (15x + 6y) = 9-21
- 2x + 6y - 15x - 6y = 9-21
- 2x - 15x + 6y - 6y = 9-21
-17x = -12
x = -12 ÷ -17
x = 
put x =
in (eq 1)






Answer:
The first prize is $800.
Explanation:
Third price = $50
The second price = $50(4) = $200
The first prize = 4($200) = $800
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Apply the Pythagorean Theorrem. Find the sum of the squares of the two shortest sides and determine whether this sum equals the square of the longest side:
#19: 5^2 + 12^2 = ? = 13^2
25 + 144 = ? = 169 This is true, so you do have a right triange in #19.
#21: 2^2 + 4^2 = ? = 7^2, or 4 + 16 = ? = 49 This is false. Not a right
triangle.
Apply this same approach (Pythagorean Theorem) to the remaining problems.
Answer: rational number
Step-by-step explanation:
Mixed numbers are all rational numbers because they can be expressed as a fraction. To be a rational number, a number must be able to be written
Answer:
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
x- 9 = 5
Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable, x. Add 9 to both sides of the equation:
x - 9 (+9) = 5 (+9)
x = 5 + 9
x = 14
x = 14 is your answer.
