We can solve this by drawing a triangle with three points. The first point at Fort Collins (F), the second at Cheyenne (C) and the third at Laramie (L).
The angle at F = 46.5, the angle at L = 43.6. We know the side opposite angle L = 3.2 (side FC), now we must solve for the side opposite angle F (side LC).
We can use the law of sines to solve this where:
sinA/a = sinB/b
sin43.6/ 3.2 = sin46.5/LC
LC = 3.2 (sin46.5/sin43.6)
LC = 3.37 inches
We are told 1 in = 10.6 miles, therefore:
3.37 inches x 10.6 miles/in = 36 miles from Laramie to Cheyenne.
this is pay back again yessir
Answer:
No solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Note how "2x" shows up in both equations. This suggests doing a substitution to solve the system.
Focus first on the first equation. Solving 2x - y = 7 for 2x, we get:
2x = y + 7.
Next, we substitute y + 7 for 2x in the second equation:
y = (y + 7) + 3.
Simplifying this produces:
0 = 10
This is not true and can never be true. Thus, this system has no solution.
-4.3 is rational but it is not an integer
