Answer:

(5,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+3y=17

3x+2y=13

So elimination sounds fun but we will have to do manipulation:

Multiply top equation by 2 and bottom equation by 3. This will cause the second term in both by 6y which means we would be setup for elimination.

8x+6y=34

9x+6y=39

--------------------now subtract the equations

-x+0=-5

So x=5

Now plug it into either question (no matter which-pick and choose)

I will go with the second original 3x+2y=13

So if x=5 we have 15+2y=13

Subtract 15 on both sides: 2y=-2

Now divide both sides by 2: y=-1

Answer (5,-1)

NikAS [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean (or average) of a set of numbers can be found with the following formula:

$Mean = \frac{A_{1} + A_{2} + ... + A_{N}}{N}$

For this problem, we have five numbers, so we add them together and divide by 5:

$Mean = \frac{92 + 85 + 78 + 97 + 88}{5}$

$Mean = \frac{440}{5}$

$Mean = 88$

An adventurous dog strays from home, runs three blocks east, two blocks north, one block east, one block north, and two blocks w

Marrrta [24]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Distance = 360.55 m</u>

<u>Direction = North-East</u>

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

In the question,

The adventurous dog starts from O, say.

He moves 3 blocks East = 300 m

then,

2 blocks North = 200 m

1 block East = 100 m

1 block North = 100 m

2 blocks West = 200 m

So,

Distance of the Dog's <u>final position</u> from the <u>initial position</u><u>.</u>

OE is given by,

In triangle OLE, using Pythagoras theorem,

$OE^{2}=OL^{2}+LE^{2}\\OE^{2}=(200)^{2}+(300)^{2}\\OE^{2}=40000+90000\\OE=360.55\,m$

<em><u>Therefore, the distance of Dog from the Home is 360.55 m and the direction of Dog from Home is North-East.</u></em>
