Answer:

x = 3.25

y =4.75

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to Solve the following system of equations below algebraically using substitution method we say that;

let;

8x - 4y = 7 ..................... equation 1

x + y = 8.......................... equation 2

from equation2

x + y = 8.......................... equation 2

x = 8 - y.............................. equation 3

substitute for x in equation 1

8x - 4y = 7 ..................... equation 1

8(8-y) - 4y = 7

64-8y-4y=7

64-12y=7

collect the like terms

64-7 = 12y

57= 12y

divide both sides by the coefficient of y which is 12

57/12 = 12y/12

4.75 = y

y =4.75

put y = 4.75 in equation 3

x = 8 - y.............................. equation 3

x = 8 -4.75

x = 3.25

to check if your answer is correct, put the value of x and y in either equation 1 or 2

from equation 2

x + y = 8.......................... equation 2

3.25 + 4.75 =8

8=8.................... proved

PLZ I NEED HELP NOW THANKS

Answer:

1240.4 mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

SA of Pentagonal pyramid:

(as)(5/2) + (sl)(5/2)

↑ ↑

base area lateral area

_____________________

a: apothem (in-radius) length, s: side length.

l: slant height.

______________________

Since we are already given the base area which is 440.4 mm². All we need to do is find the lateral area and add both areas together.

Given that the triangular face of the lateral part has a side/base length of 16mm, and a 20mm slant height.

A triangle has an area of ½bh and since there are 5 of these faces total, (5)(½bh) = (5/2)(bh). In a three dimensional perspective, b will be s and h will be l so (sl)(5/2).

With this information the surface area is:

(16)(20)(5/2)mm + (440.4 mm²) →

800 mm² + 440.4 mm² =

1240.4 mm²
