X would be the absolute value of 10 or -10 since they both are 10 units from 0 so it can be x=l10l or x=l-10l, they both equal 10
To find an inverse, switch the x and the y and solve for the new y. Yours switched is x = 3y. Now solving for y we divide both sides by 3 to get y = x/3
Answer:
(6,-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x-9y = 18 (equation 1)
4x+3y = 12 (equation 2)
multiply equation 2 by 3, and add it to equation 2
-3x-9y = 18
12x+9y = 36
-----------------
X's cancel out
9x = 54
Divide both sides by 9
x = 6
Plug in 6 for x in any of the original equations
(Plugging into Equation 2)
4(6)+3y = 12 Multiply 4(6)
24+3y = 12 Subtract 24 from both sides
3y = -12 Divide 3 on both sides
y = -4
Therefore the solution is (6,-4).
To find the probability of landing on a triangle, you will want find the combined areas of the triangles and the total area of the square target.
Divide the area of the combined areas and the total area to find the probability of landing on a triangle.
A = 1/2bh
1/2 x 8 x 8
A = 32 square inches
32 x 4
128 square inches (areas of triangles)
A = bh
26 x 26
A = 676 square inches
128/676 = 0.189
There is an approximate probability of 0.19 of hitting a triangle.
