Answer:

The solution would be (6, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this using elimination, simply add the two equations together.

2x + 3y = 18

3x - 3y = 12

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

5x = 30

x = 6

And now that we have the value for x, we can solve for y.

2x + 3y = 18

2(6) + 3y = 18

12 + 3y = 18

3y = 6

y = 2

Answer:

Solution of the given system of equations is x = 6 and y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given system equations are

2x + 3y = 18 -------(1)

3x - 3y = 12 --------(2)

We add equation 1 and 2 to get the value of x

(2x + 3y) + (3x - 3y) = 18 + 12

2x + 3x + 3y - 3y = 30

5x = 30

x = $\frac{30}{5}=6$

Now we put the value of x in equation 1.

2(6) + 3y = 18

12 + 3y = 18

3y = 18 - 12

3y = 6

y = 2

Therefore, solution of the given system of equations is x = 6 and y = 2

100 points I have answer. Can someone explain this correct answer, I know its correct, but need to understand why? Do we subtrac

Answer:

c = -6

d = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

After reflection about the x-axis:

A --> A'

(2,3) --> (2,-3)

(4,3) --> (4,-3)

(2,6) --> (2,-6)

After translation:

(2 + c, -6 + d) --> (-4, -4)

2+c = -4

c = -6

-6+d = -4

d = 2

Find the shaded area of each figure, round your answer to one decimal place if necessary

Annette [7]

<h2>area of shaded portion = 49.5 yd²</h2><h2>____________________</h2>

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

radius of circle = 5 yd ------ ( <em>g</em><em>i</em><em>v</em><em>e</em><em>n</em><em> </em><em>)</em>

height of triangle = 16 yd --- ( <em>g</em><em>i</em><em>v</em><em>e</em><em>n</em><em> </em><em>)</em>

base of triangle = 16 yd ----- ( <em>g</em><em>i</em><em>v</em><em>e</em><em>n</em><em> </em><em>)</em>

area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height

= 1/2 × 16 × 16

= 128 yd²

area of circle = π × radius²

= 3.14 × 5 × 5 --- ( π = 3.14 )

= 78.5 yd²

area of shaded portion = area of triangle - area of circle

area of shaded portion= 128 yd²-78.5 yd²

area of shaded portion = 49.5 yd²
