Solve the system of equations.<br> 2y+7x=−5<br> 5y−7x=12<br> ​
3241004551 [841]

We can solve this by substitution method.

Look at the second equation. If we rearrange to find 7x, we can substitute in the value into the first equation.

5y-7x=12

5y-7x-12=0

5y-12=7x

Therefore, 7x=5y-12

Now replace the 7x in the first equation with 5y - 12:

2y+7x=-5 (substitute in 7x = 5y - 12)

2y+(5y-12)=-5

7y-12=-5

7y=7

y=1

Now that we know y, we can find x by substituting in y = 1 into any equation we want. I will use the equation: 7x = 5y - 12

7x=5y-12 (substitute in y = 1)

7x=5(1) -12

5x=5-12

7x=-7

x=-1

A rectangular carpet has a perimeter of 194 inches. The length of the carpet is 67 inches more than the width. What are the dime
sammy [17]

Answer:

The dimensions of the carpet are 15 inches and 82 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the width of the carpet is x inches

∵ The width of the carpet is x inches

∵ The length of the carpet is 67 inches more than the width

∴ The length of the carpet is (x + 67) inches

∵ The perimeter of the rectangle = 2(length + width)

∵ The perimeter of the carpet = 194 inches

→ Equate the two right sides of the perimeter

∴ 2(length + width) = 194

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ length + width = 97

→ Substitute the value of the length and width in the equation above

∵ x + 67 + x = 97

→ Add the like terms in the left side

∴ (x + x) + 67 = 97

∴ 2x + 67 = 97

→ Subtract 67 from both sides

∵ 2x + 67 - 67 = 97 - 67

∴ 2x = 30

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ x = 15

∵ x represents the width of the carpet

∴ The width of the carpet is 15 inches

∵ The length of the carpet = 15 + 67

∴ The length of the carpet is 82 inches

∴ The dimensions of the carpet are 15 inches and 82 inches
