ANSWER

The solution is
(-4,-1)


EXPLANATION

The given equations are:

2x + 5y =  - 13...(1)

and

3x - 4y =  - 8...(2)


We multiply equation 1 by 3 to get,

6x + 15y =  - 39...(3)

We multiply equation 2 also by 2 to get,

6x - 8y =  - 16...(4)

We subtract equation 4 from equation 3 to get,


23y =  - 23
This implies that,

y =  - 1

We put this value of y into any of the equations say equation 2

3x - 4( - 1) =  - 8
Simplify

3x + 4 =  - 8
Group like terms
3x =  - 8 - 4
Simplify,

3x =  - 12

Divide both sides by 3 to get,

x =  - 4


Therefore the solution is
(-4,-1)

The correct answer is option D.

Answers:

  • Problem 1)  40 degrees
  • Problem 2) 84 degrees
  • Problem 3) 110 degrees

===============================================

Explanation:

For these questions, we'll use the inscribed angle theorem. This says that the inscribed angle is half the measure of the arc it cuts off. An inscribed angle is one where the vertex of the angle lies on the circle, as problem 1 indicates.

For problem 1, the arc measure is 80 degrees, so half that is 40. This is the measure of the unknown inscribed angle.

Problem 2 will have us work in reverse to double the inscribed angle 42 to get 84.

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

For problem 3, we need to determine angle DEP. But first, we'll need Thales Theorem which is a special case of the inscribed angle theorem. This theorem states that if you have a semicircle, then any inscribed angle will always be 90 degrees. This is a handy way to form 90 degree angles if all you have is a compass and straightedge.

This all means that angle DEF is a right angle and 90 degrees.

So,

(angle DEP) + (angle PEF) = angle DEF

(angle DEP) + (35) = 90

angle DEP = 90 - 35

angle DEP = 55

The inscribed angle DEP cuts off the arc we want to find. Using the inscribed angle theorem, we double 55 to get 110 which is the measure of minor arc FD.

Find slopes , ill mark brainlist
zepelin [54]

Answer:

\frac{3}{2} or 1\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a graph and asked to find the slope.

So we can see two coordinate points, one on (0, 3) and (2, 0).

When trying to find slope, we use the method rise over run, which basically means y over x as a fraction, in which you then divide.

So count how many times it'll take for x to get to y, base it off the picture below

Since we see our numbers to be divided are 3 over 2, do the division and you get 1 1/2.

Would this be negative though? No, since the graph is in an increase, not a decrease.
