Answer:
x = 3/2 | y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations:
- y = 2x - 6. . . .(i)
- y = -4x + 3. . . . (ii)
Substituting from equation (i) for y:
==> 2x - 6 = -4x + 3
==> 2x + 4x = 6 + 3
==> 6x = 9
<em>dividing both </em><em>sides by 3</em><em>:</em>
==> 2x = 3
==> x = 3/2
Substituting 3/2 for x in equation (i):
==> y = 2(3/2) - 6
==> y = 3 - 6
==> y = -3
Answer:
Plug x-7 in for y, in the bottom equation.
x - 7 = 2 + 2x - 4
x - 7 = 2x - 2
x = 2x + 5
-x = 5
x = -5
B because there is only one negative and -63 divided by 7 equals -9. If it were -7 divided by 63 that would give you an answer in decimal form.
Let the length of the shorter sides be x, then
Perimeter = x + x + x + 5
29 = 3x + 5
3x = 29 - 5 = 24
x = 24/3 = 8
Therefore, the length of longest side is 8 + 5 = 13 m.
