<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

x = 3

y = -8

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

x + y = -5

x - y = 11

Since the y's will cancel out, we don't need to modify the two equations in any way.

Now, just add the two equations.

x + x = 2x

y + (-y) = 0

-5 + 11 = 6

2x = 6

Divide by 2.

x = 3

To find y, plug 3 in as "x" in one of the two equations.

3 + y = -5

y = -8

Explanation and answer please :)
puteri [66]

Step-by-step explanation:

You use the I = PRN formula

P = 11 500

R = 7.25% but you have to 7.25 divide by 100 so it becomes a decimal so it should be 0.0725

N = 2 years and 6 months. This can be 2.5 years because half of 12 is 6

the solution is 11 500 × 0.0725 × 2.5 = 2084.38

How far up the house would a ladder be resting if it is 25 ft long and 3 ft
Lena [83]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The last one is absurd. You can't have a ladder reaching higher than itself. The question is a Pythagorean problem.

Givens

a = 3

b = ?

c = 25 feet

Formula

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Solution

3^2 + b^2 = 25^2

9 + b^2 = 625                  Subtract 9 from both sides.

b^2 = 625 - 9

b^2 = 616                        Take the square root of both sides.

b = sqrt(616)

b = 24.8
