Use linear combination to solve this. It is much faster than substitution. I would start by multiplying the bottom equation by -1.
<span>4x-7y=3
-x+7y=15</span>
Then, add the two equations together. The result is:
3x=18.
You've eliminated one variable. Now you can solve for the other one.
Divide both sides by 3 to get
x=6
Plug this into one of the original equations, then solve for y
-(6)+7y=15
7y=21
y=3

Check your work by plugging these values into both equations to see if they remain true

Using everyday knowledge, indicate whether the if then statements are correct forward-only or both forward and reverse. Statemen
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

The reason Statement 1 can be both forward and reverse is because is Bo and Mel are related then it will word forward and backward.

The reason Statement 2 can be only forward is because is the sprinklers are on then the grass is wet will work since it is saying ONLY the sprinklers are on. If it is reverse and the grass is wet if the sprinklers are ONLY on than that is false since if it rains than the grass can also be wet. So there are multiple ways that the grass can be wet hence the answers.

Help me to answer this question pl​s

Problem 1

Draw a straight line and plot P anywhere on it. Use the compass to trace out a faint circle of radius 8 cm with center P. This circle crosses the previous line at point Q.

Repeat these steps to set up another circle centered at Q and keep the radius the same. The two circles cross at two locations. Let's mark one of those locations point X. From here, we could connect points X, P, Q to form an equilateral triangle. However, we only want the 60 degree angle from it.

With P as the center, draw another circle with radius 7.5 cm. This circle will cross the ray PX at location R.

Refer to the diagram below.

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

Problem 2

I'm not sure why your teacher wants you to use a compass and straightedge to construct an 80 degree angle. Such a task is not possible. The proof is lengthy but look up the term "constructible angles" and you'll find that only angles of the form 3n are possible to make with compass/straight edge.

In other words, you can only do multiples of 3. Unfortunately 80 is not a multiple of 3. I used GeoGebra to create the image below, as well as problem 1.
