Answer:

y = 21

x = 74

Step-by-step explanation:

-x + 4y = 10

x - 3y = 11

Let the first eqn be eqn 1 and the second be eqn 2

ie

- x + 4y = 10 --------eqn 1

x - 3y = 11 ----------eqn 2

From eqn 1, make x the subject of the formula

Carrying x over the equal to in order to change the sign from - to +

4y - 10 = x

Substitute the value of x in eqn 2

4y - 10 - 3y = 11

Collecting like terms

4y - 3y = 11 + 10

y = 21

The value of y is 21

Then, substitute the value of y into eqn 1

-x + 4y = 10

-x + 4(21) = 10

-x + 84 = 10

84 -10 = x

In order to get rid of the - sign

x = 74

Therefore,

x = 74

y = 21

4x = (130 - 2x) so x = 65/3

(3y + 40) + (130 -2x) = 180 because the angles are supplementary

plug in x

3y + 40 + 130 - 2(65/3) = 180

so 3y = 95/3

therefore y = 95/6

Ajax is 5 and 1 fourth feet tall. His sister is 3 eighths foot shorter than Ajax How tall is Ajax Sister?
user100 [1]

Answer:

4\frac{3}{4} feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Ajax is "5 and 1 fourth feet tall", which can be written as the mixed number 5\frac{1}{4} .

His sister is "3 eighths foot shorter", so she's 3/8 feet shorter than 5 1/4.

So, this is just a subtraction problem:

5\frac{1}{4} -\frac{3}{8}

To solve this, we want to convert 5 1/4 into an improper fraction, which is: \frac{21}{4} . Now, we want to find a common denominator. In this case, that common denominator is 8, so \frac{21}{4} =\frac{42}{8} .

Finally, we subtract 3/8 from 42/8: \frac{42}{8} -\frac{3}{8} =\frac{39}{8} . So, Ajax's sister is 39/8 feet. Converting this into a mixed number, we have: 39/8 = 4\frac{6}{8} =4\frac{3}{4} .

Therefore, Ajax's sister is 4\frac{3}{4} feet tall.

Hope this helps!
