<h3><u>The value of x is equal to -9.</u></h3><h3><u>The value of y is equal to 1.</u></h3>

x - 3y = -12

<em><u>Add 3y to both sides.</u></em>

x = -12 + 3y

<em><u>Plug the value of x into the second equation.</u></em>

2(-12 + 3y) + 11y = -7

<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>

-24 + 6y + 11y = -7

<em><u>Add 24 to both sides.</u></em>

6y + 11y = 17

<em><u>Combine like terms.</u></em>

17y = 17

<em><u>Divide both sides by 17.</u></em>

y = 1

Now that we have the value of y we can plug it into the original equation to find the value of x.

x - 3(1) = -12

x - 3 = -12

<em><u>Add 3 to both sides.</u></em>

x = -9

A wheelchair ramp near the door of a building has an incline of 15 degrees and a run of 7.11 m from the door. Calculate the leng
OLga [1]
Angle of elevation is 15 degrees and we're trying to solve for the hypotenuse of the right triangle given the adjacent is 7.11 m. 

We could use primary trig ratios to solve - COS. 

Let x represent the length of the ramp (hypotenuse) 

Cos15= ADJACENT/HYPOTENUSE 
Cos15= 7.11/x 
x=7.11/cos15 
x=7.36 m 

<span>Therefore, the ramp is 7.36 m in length.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

9x^3-17x^2-x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the negative you'll get

(12x^3-8x^2)+(-3x^3-9x^2-x+7)

Combine like terms

12x^3-3x^3=9x^3 , -8x^2-9x^2=-17x^2 , -x , +7

Putting it all together:

9x^3-17x^2-x+7
