So what is the question? I don’t Get what you have to do
3x + 2y = 6 ⇒ -3x - 2y = -6
-x + y = -2 ⇒ <u>-3x + 3y = -6</u>
<u>-5y</u> = <u>0</u>
-5 -5
y = 0
3x + 2(0) = 6
3x + 0 = 6
<u> - 0 - 0</u>
<u>3x</u> = <u>6</u>
3 3
x = 2
(x, y) = (2, 0)
Ok so what y ou want to do it to max space, lie it diagonally
use pythagoren theorem
first convert the units
4'=4 feet
8''=8 inches
convert to inches
4 feet times 12=48 inches
so
pythagorea theorem is
a^2+b^2=c^2
c=hypotonuse
a and b are legs
in a right triangle
8 and 48 are the legs
fidn hypotonuse
8^2+48^2=c^2
64+2304=c^2
2368=c^2
8√37=c
aprox
48.66=c
4 feet amd 0.66 inches
