Answer:

5 km

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the distances walked by Maria;

  • 3 km west and 4 km south

We are required to determine the displacement from her starting point;

  • We are going to use Pythagoras's theorem;

a² + b² = c²

Taking, the distances towards south and towards west as the legs of the triangle;

Then, c² = 3² + 4²

               = 25

         c  = √25

            = 5 km

Therefore, the displacement from the starting point is 5 km

Use elimination to determine which ordered pair is the solution to the system of equations below. Use the space below to show al
lidiya [134]

Answer:

in the ordered pair; ( x  = 27/4 , y = 1/4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The system of the equation shown below is:

-2x - 14y = 10

 2x + 2y = 14

We are to use the elimination method to determine the ordered pair.

From the above equation:

-2x - 14y = 10  --- (1)

 2x + 2y = 14   --- (2)

Add both equation 1 and 2 together in order to eliminate x, then we can solve for y first.

-2x - 14y = 10

<u>  2x + 2y = 14       </u>

<u>  0  - 16y = -4        </u>

<u />

- 16 y = - 4

divide both sides by - 16, Then:

-16y /-16 = -4/-16

y = 1/4

Since y = 1/4, Then from equation (2), x will be :

2x + 2y = 14

2x + 2(1/4) = 14

2x + 1/2 = 14

2x = 14 - 1/2

2x = 13.5

x = 13.5/2

x = 27/4

Thus, in the ordered pair; ( x  = 27/4 , y = 1/4 )
