Laugh out loud a pun isn't it
Answer:
(5/2 , 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
4X – 3y = 7
4x + y = 11
———————
Multiply a -1 to the bottom equation to get the 4x as a negative so it cancels out.
4x - 3y = 7
-4x - y = -11
——————
-4y = -4
Divide by -4
y = 1
Substitute the value of y into one of the equations and solve
4x - 3(1) = 7
4x -3 = 7
4x = 10
Divide by 4
X = 10/4
Simplify by dividing by 2
x = 5/2
Therefore the answer is (5/2, 1 )
X = 2
y = 1
You can get this by replacing the y in the second equation with the 3x - 5 from the first. Then solve for x. Once you have that value, you can solve for y.
Answer:
12 units
Step-by-step explanation:
base is x
one of the legs measure 4x-6
therefore, perimeter is equal to
2 (4x - 6) + x = 96
8x - 12 + x = 96
9x = 96 + 12
9x = 108
x = 108/9 = 12 units
