Answer:

x = 5

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x + 3y = -9

3y = 3x - 9

Equation 1. <em><u>y = x - 3</u></em>

-3x + y = 7

Equation 2. <u><em>y = 3x + 7</em></u>

So, put number 1 equation to number 2's y :

x - 3 = 3x + 7

x -3x = 7 + 3

-2x = 10

2x = 10

x = 10/2

x = 5

And, put x, which is 5 , to the any equation to figure out the y.

This time, I'll use equation number 1.

y = 5 - 3

y = 2

Using elimination, we add the equations, but this time from left to right. This process wants to elimination a variable. So 2x plus -2x equals 0. Moving on the next variable, 6y plus -y is 5y. On to the last variable, 18 plus 12 is 30. So we have this equation, 5y=30. 30/5 is 6, so y=6. We plug 6 into y in one of the equations you choose. In this case, I'm going to use the first equation. Plugging 6, we have this equation, 2x plus 36 is 18. 18-36 is -18. We then have this equation, 2x=-18. We know -9 times 2 is -18, so our x value is -9, So, our y=6, and our x=-9.

Find sin theta if cot theta =-4 and cos theta &lt; 0
asambeis [7]
Imagine the unit circle. The cot(theta) is a line from (0,1) to (-4,1). Imagine it is part of a triangle with the origin (draw it!).

Then the hypotenuse length is √(1+4²) = √17.

The sine rule says that sin(90)/√17 must equal sin(theta)/4, and sin(90)=1, so

sin(\theta) = \frac4{\sqrt{17}}
