Solve the simultaneous equations 4x - 2y = 8 and x - 3y= -3

1 answer:

7 0

4x-2y=8
x-3y=-3
Multiply equation 2 by 4;
4x-2y=8
4x-12y=-12
Subtracting equation II from equation I;
10y=20
y=2
Replacing the value of y in equation;
4x-2y=8
4x-2(2)=8
4x-4=8
4x=12
x=3

Irina18 [472]

----------------------------------------------------
Given information
----------------------------------------------------
Area = 40ft²
Length = √20 ft

----------------------------------------------------
Formula
----------------------------------------------------
Area = Length x Width

----------------------------------------------------
Find Width
----------------------------------------------------
40 = √20 x width
Width = 40 ÷ √20
Width = 40 ÷ 2√5
Width = 20 ÷ √5
$Width = \frac{20}{ \sqrt{5} }$

$Answer: \boxed {Width = \frac{20}{ \sqrt{5} }}$
