x + 4 = 15
- 4 -4
x = 11
You would subtract 4 because you need to isolate the x to get the value of x. You would subtract it to both sides because whatever you do on one side, you have to do it to the other side.
Pythagorean theorem
c2 = a2 + b2
71^2 = 43^2 + b2
5041 = 1849 + b2
3192 = b2
b = 56.5 which is answer choice d
Answer:
(1.25, - 5 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
- 4x + 3y = - 20 → (1)
4x + 2y = - 5 → (2)
Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the x- term
5y = - 25 ( divide both sides by 5 )
y = - 5
Substitute y = - 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x
Substituting into (2)
4x + 2(- 5) = - 5, that is
4x - 10 = - 5 ( add 10 to both sides )
4x = 5 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x =
= 1.25
Solution is (1.25, - 5 )
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
A solution to a system of equations means the point must work in both equations in the system. So, we test the point in both equations. It must be a solution for both to be a solution to the system. Hope this helps.
