Answer:

x = -76 , y = 57

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 6y = -38

3x + 4y = 0

------------------

use 4 to multiply equation 1

5x(4) - 6y(4) = - 38(4)

20x -24y = -152

----------------------

use 6 to multiply equation 2

3x(6) + 4y(6) = 0(6)

18x + 24y = 0

------------------------

20x - 24y = -152

18x + 24y = 0

----------------------

2x = -152

----------------

divide 2 by both sides

x = -76

--------------------

to find y, slot in the of x to either equation 1 or 2

--------------------------------

equation 2

3x + 4y = 0

3(-76) + 4y = 0

------------------------

-228 + 4y = 0

4y = 228 - 0

4y = 228

---------------------

divide both sides by 4

----------------------------------

y = 57

Subtract j from 9, then subtract 3 from the result

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

(9-j)-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start from the beginning and subtract j from 9. Because the word "from" is used, 9 will be the first number and j will be the second number.

We have 9-j

Now, we have to subtract 3 from the final answer. So, we have (9-j)-3

Anyone know how to solve this??

Tom [10]

$Given : \frac{(x^\frac{2}{5})^9\;.\;(x^\frac{-4}{15})}{x^\frac{1}{3}}$

$\implies {(x^\frac{18}{5})\;.\; (x^\frac{-4}{15})}\;.\;(x^\frac{-1}{3})$

$\implies x^(^\frac{18}{5} ^-^\frac{4}{15}^-^\frac{1}{3}^)$

$\implies x^(^(^\frac{54 - 4}{15}^)^-^\frac{1}{3}^) = x^(^(^\frac{50}{15}^)^-^\frac{1}{3}^) = x^(^(^\frac{10}{3}^)^-^\frac{1}{3}^) = x^(^\frac{9}{3}^) = x^3$

$\implies x^k = x^3$

$\implies k = 3$

Find the value of x. Round to the nearest tenth. Answers A-12.5 B-10 C-13 D-9.7!

kvasek [131]

Answer: A. 12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

$cos\ \theta=\dfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}\\\\\\cos\ 28^o=\dfrac{11}{x}\\\\\\\rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{11}{cos\ 28^o}\\\\\\\rightarrow\ x=12.46\\\\\\\rightarrow\ \boxed{x=12.5}\qquad rounded\ to\ the\ nearest\ tenth$
