What is the solution to this system of equations? 3x + 2y=45 , 4x-y=5

1 answer:

3 0

The solution is (5, 15)

Multiply the second equation by 2 and then add through.

3x + 2y = 45
8x - 2y = 10
-----------------
11x = 55
x = 5

Then plug in to get the y value

3(5) + 2y = 45
15 + 2y = 45
2y = 30
y = 15

Two sides of a triangle measure 10cm and 18cm . Which could be the measure of the third side of the triangle?

ValentinkaMS [17]

It cannot be 30, because the sum of two sides should be more than third side
-not D
10+18=28 <30

it cannot be 6 +10 < 18

it cannot 8
8+10=18

so it is has to be C) 12
12+18>10
10+12>18
10+18>12
answer C. 12 cm

Find the measure of one interior angle of a regular 14-gon.

lozanna [386]

$\bf \textit{sum of all interior angles in a polygon}\\\\ n\theta =180(n-2)~~ \begin{cases} n=\stackrel{polygon}{sides}\\ \theta = angle~in\\ \qquad degrees\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ n = 14\\ \end{cases}\implies 14\theta =180(14-2) \\\\\\ 14\theta =180(12)\implies 14\theta =2160\implies \theta =\cfrac{2160}{14}\implies \theta \approx 154.3^o$
