Solve the system using elimination

Mathematics
1 answer:
Pie3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

(x, y) = (3, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

given the 2 equations

2x + 3y = 9 → (1)

x + 5y = 8 → (2)

multiplying (2) by - 2 then adding to (1) will eliminate the term in x

multiply (2) by - 2

- 2x - 10y = - 16 → (3)

add 1(1) and (3) term by term

(2x - 2x) + (3y - 10y) = (9 - 16)

- 7y = - 7 ( divide both sides by - 7 )

y = 1

Substitute y = 1 in either (1) or (2) and solve for x

(1) : 2x + 3 = 9 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

2x = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 3

Solution is (3, 1 )

Please help me AAAAAA
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

AEF is a similar triangle to ABC. that means it has the same angles, and the sides (and all other lines in the triangle) are scaled from the ABC length to the AEF length by the same factor f.

now, what is f ?

we know this from the relation of AC to FA.

FA = 12 mm

AC = 12 + 28 = 40 mm

so, going from AC to FA we multiply AC by f so that

AC × f = FA

40 × f = 12

f = 12/40 = 3/10

all other sides, heights, ... if ABC translate to their smaller counterparts in AEF by that multiplication with f (= 3/10).

the area of a triangle is

baseline × height / 2

aABC = 500

and because of the similarity we don't need to calculate the side and height in absolute numbers. we can use the relative sizes by referring to the original dimensions and the scaling factor f.

baseline small = baseline large × f

height small = height large × f

we know that

baseline large × height large / 2 = 500

baseline large × height large = 1000

aAEF = baseline small × height small / 2 =

= baseline large × f × height large × f / 2 =

= baseline large × height large × f² / 2 =

= 1000 × f² / 2 = 500 × f² = 500 ×(3/10)² =

= 500 × 9/100 = 5 × 9 = 45 mm²

Calculate the area of the following figure. All measurements are in centimetres. Give answer to correct two decimal places.
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape above is a composite shape having two different shapes like rectangle and semi- circle

Area of rectangle=Length × Breadth

Area of semi circle=1/2πr^2

To find the area of the rectangle naw

Length of the rectangle=6.6

Width of the rectangle=4

A=6.6×4

A=26cm^2

Area of semi-circle=1/2

Diameter of the shape =4cm

Radius=2cm

A=1/2×3.14×2cm x2cm

A=6.28cm^2

Area of the shape=26+6.28cm^2

Area=32.28 to 2 dp
