The first thing you want to do is plug in x and y into both equations:

a(3) + b(4) = 4

b(3) + a(4) = 8

rearrange to line up a’s and b’s

3a + 4b = 4

4a + 3b = 8

now you want to choose a or b and multiply each equation by a number to make them have the same amount of a’s or b’s.

4(3a + 4b = 4) = 12a + 16b = 16

3(4a + 3b = 8) = 12a + 9b = 24


Now we subtract the bottom equation from the top and solve for b:

12a + 16b - (12a + 9b) = 16 - 24

7b = -8

b = -8/7


Now we plug back in for b to one of the original equations:

3a + 4(-8/7) = 4

3a + (-32/7) = 4

3a - (32/7) = 4

3a = 4 + (32/7)

3a = (28/7) + (32/7)

3a = 60/7

a = (60/7)/3 = 20/7.


Finally, plug a and b in together to double check using the second equation.

4a + 3b = 8

4(20/7) + 3(-8/7) = ?

(80/7) - (24/7) = ?

56/7 = 8.

Which expression is equivalent to 5^3√6c+7^3√6c, if c ≠ 0
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

complete question

A. 35[3]6cB. 12[3]12cC. 12[3]6cD.72c

The given equation can be written as

5^3√6c+7^3√6c

5 * \sqrt{3 *3*2c} + 7 * \sqrt{3 *3*2c}

5 * 3 *\sqrt{2c} + 7 * 3  *\sqrt{2c}

15  *\sqrt{2c} + 21 *\sqrt{2c}

36 *\sqrt{2c}

12 [3]*\sqrt{2c}

Option C is correct

The length of a rectangle is 3 times longer than its width. If the area of the rectangle is 24 square inches, then what is the p
NikAS [45]

Answer:  The answer is 16√2 cm.


Step-by-step explanation:  Given that there is a rectangle with length 3 times than its width. We are to find the perimeter of the rectangle.

Let 'w' represents the width of the rectangle.

Then, its length will be 3w.

Also, area of the rectangle = 24 square inches.

Therefore,

3w\times w=24\\\\\Rightarrow 3w^2=24\\\\\Rightarrow w^2=8\\\\\Rightarrow w=2\sqrt 2.

So, width = 2√2 inches and length = 6√2 inches.

Thus, perimeter of the rectangle = 4√2 + 12√2 = 16√2 cm.
