3x - 5y = 14 and – 2x + 2y = 0

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

x=5.6

y=-5.6

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 5y = 14 Equation 1

– 2x + 2y = 0 Equation 2

Simultaneous equation can be solved either through elimination method or substitution method. But we use elimination method for this question

Multiply equation 1 by -2 (the coefficient of x in equation 2) and multiply equation 2 with 3 (the coefficient of x in equation 1), so that x will have the same coefficient in the new equations, and easy to eliminate

-2(3x - 5y = 14)

-6x+10y=-28 Equation 3

3(– 2x + 2y = 0)

-6x+6y=0 Equation 4

Subtract equation 4 from 3 to eliminate x

-6x+10y=-28

-6x+6y=0

-6x-(-6x)=-6x+6x=0

10y-6y=5y

-28-0=-28

5y=-28

y=-28/5

y=-5.6

Substitute for y in equation 2

– 2x + 2y = 0

– 2x + 2(-5.6) = 0

-2x-11.2=0

-2x=11.2

x=-11.2/2

x=5.6

its pithagoreon so

c^2= a^2+ b^2

c^2= 32^2 +24^2

c^2= 1,024+576

c^2= 1600

c=\sqrt{1600\\= 40

Jack and Andrea want to create a right triangle together using values of x and y and the polynomial identity to generate Pythago
leva [86]

A right triangle can be considered as a special type because the relationship of its sides can be described using the hypotenuse formula:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

or

c^2 = x^2 + y^2

where,

c is the hypotenuse of the triangle and is the side opposite to the 90° angle

while a and b are the sides adjacent to the 90° angle

 

In the problem statement, we are given that one of the side has a measure of 2 = x, while the hypotenuse is 5 = c, therefore calculating for y:

y^2 = c^2 – x^2

y^2 = 5^2 – 2^2

y^2 = 21

y = 4.58

 

The natural number is the number before the decimal. Therefore the answer is:

y = 4

It’s 12

On the first side (smaller triangle/ ABC) the give you one side that equals 4 and on the next triangle (bigger triangle/ DEF) it’s 8 meaning you’re going to multiply each corresponding side by 2

What is p?<br><br> 7 1/5+p+4 9/10+3 3/20=19 1/10
Yakvenalex [24]
ANSWER:
7 \frac{1}{5}+p+4 \frac{9}{10}+3 \frac{3}{20} =19 \frac{1}{10} \\ 7 \frac{4}{20}+p+4 \frac{18}{20} + 3 \frac{3}{20}=19 \frac{2}{20}  \\ p=19 \frac{2}{20}- (7 \frac{4}{20}+4 \frac{18}{20} + 3 \frac{3}{20})  \\ p=19 \frac{2}{20}-15 \frac{5}{20} \\ p=3\frac{17}{20}
