Answer:
x = - 4 y = - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y= - 8
-9x-6y=60
First, solve for x in the first equation:
x+y = - 8 Subtract y from both sides
x + y - y = -8 - y y cancels on the left
x = - 8 - y
Now plug in what you found for x into the 2nd equation and solve for y.
- 9x - 6y = 60
-9(- 8 - y) - 6y = 60 Multiply out
72 + 9y - 6y = 60
72 + 3y = 60 Subtract 72 from both sides
72 - 72 + 3y = 60 - 72 72 cancels on the left
3y = - 12 Divie both sides by 3
3y/3 = -12/3 3 cancels on the left because 3/3 = 1
y = -4
Now plug your answer for y back into the first equation to get x.
x + y = -8
x + (-4) = - 8 Add 4 to each side
x - 4 + 4 = - 8 + 4 4 cancels on the left
x = -4
x = - 4 and y = - 4
Janes weight = x
Twelve pounds less than twice janes weight is 270 pounds
12 less than 2x is 270
2x -12 = 270 (add 12 to each side)
2x = 270 + 12
2x = 282 (divide 2 from each side)
x = 282/2
x = 141
The answer is 141 pounds
Answer:
D-70.81
Step-by-step explanation:
I did the math, this should be correct.
Good luck!
Step-by-step explanation:
the area of a triangle is
baseline × height / 2
the baseline (where the height hits at a 90° angle) is 4 m.
the height is 3.7 m.
so, the area is
4 × 3.7 / 2 = 2 × 3.7 = 7.4 m²
Answer:
7 sqrt(3) =x
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that sin 60 = opposite / hypotenuse
sin 60 = x/14
Multiply both sides by 14
14 sin 60 = x
14 * (sqrt(3)/2) =x
7 sqrt(3) =x
