−5x+4y=38 −x+2y=10 solve by elimination

Mathematics
1 answer:
tatyana61 [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

(-6, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x + 4y - 38 = 0 (1) | -x +2y - 10 = 0 (2)

First i multiply the 2nd equation by -5, because i want the magnitude of the x coefficient to be the same but with opposite signs, because when i'll add the equations the x's are going to cancel.

(2) * (-5):

5x - 10y + 50 = 0 (2')

(1) + (2'):

-5x + 4y - 38 + 5x - 10y + 50 = 0

-6y + 12 = 0

y = 2

Use the second equation, before multiplying to find the x - solution.

-x + 2(2) - 10 = 0

-x + 4 - 10 = 0 | add 'x'  to both sides

x = -6

How do you put 27% ,miles per hour , 42% and 45 in a sentence
Serjik [45]
  There are a number of possible combinations for this open-ended question, so here's an example question and answer, in which the two are non-related:
 James' car is going at 45 miles per hour, and that is 42% of his maximum speed. How much slower does James have to go to be 27% of his maximum speed?
 Amy's car used to be able to go at 45 miles per hour as 42% of her maximum speed, but due to the new upgrade, 45 miles per hour is now only 27% of her maximum speed.

Someone must have beaten me here. Devora thinks, dismayed by the empty treasure chest. Then, just as she's about to close the li
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Based on the assumption that the angle of the triangle at the cave entrance is a right angle, the angle Devora turned before walking to the treasure chest is approximately 57 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

A sketch of the triangle formed is attached where E is the entrance of the cave, C is the treasure chest and T is the treasure itself.

Using the cosine trigonometric ratio, we have that

\cos \theta  = \frac{484848}{898989} = 0.5393

Finding the arccosine of 0.5393 gives 57.36^0

AURORKA [14]

replace 15 for t in the equation

V915) = 20 + 7 cos(15) = 26.76148078 feet per second

26.76148078 x 15 = 401.4222118 feet

 round off to 401.42 feet
