7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 3y = -18

Taking 3 common from left side

so, 3(2x+y) = -18

2x+y = -18/3

2x+y = -6 (equation 1)

and, 7x + 7y = 0

Taking 7 as commom from left side

7(x + y) = 0

x + y = 0/7

x + y = 0 (equation 2)

now , by using elimination method

subtracting equation2 from equation1

2x + y - (x + y)= -6 - 0

2x + y - x - y = -6

x = -6

so, x = -6

substituting value of x in equation 1

2(-6) + y = -6

-12 + y = -6

y = -6 +12

y = 6

hence, the value of x = -6

and value of y = 6

Jerry has a miniature model of a boat. He knows that the boat is 3 3/4 inches wide and 5 1/2 inches long. What is the actual len

FromTheMoon [43]

Width of the miniature model = $3\frac{3}{4}$ inches

Length of the miniature model = $5\frac{1}{2}$ inches

The actual width of the boat = 15 feet

Let us find the actual length of the boat.

Write it in a proportion form.

width of model : length of model : : width of actual : length of actual

$$\Rightarrow 3\frac{3}{4}:5\frac{1}{2}::15:x$

$$\Rightarrow\frac{15}{4}:\frac{11}{2}::15:x$

$$\Rightarrow\frac{\frac{15}{4}}{\frac{11}{2}} =\frac{15}{x}$

Do cross multiplication.

$$\Rightarrow{\frac{15}{4}x =15\times\frac{11}{2}$

$$\Rightarrow{\frac{15}{4}x =\frac{165}{2}$

$$\Rightarrow x =\frac{165}{2}\times{\frac{4}{15}$

⇒ x = 22

Hence the actual length of the boat is 22 feet.

If the slope of a line is -1 and two points on the line are (-9, 3) and (-10, r), what is the value of r?

ANEK [815]

Answer:

$r=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slope of the line is -1.

We also know that the line passes through (-9, 3) and (-10, r).

We want to find the value of r.

First, let's figure out the equation of our line. We can use the point-slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Where m is the slope and (x₁, y₁) is a point.

So, let's substitute -1 for m. Since we know the point (-9, 3), let's use this for (x₁, y₁).

Substitute:

$y-(3)=-1(x-(-9))$

Simplify:

$y-3=-(x+9)$

Distribute:

$y-3=-x-9$

Add 3 to both sides. So, our equation is:

$y=-x-6$

It passes through (-10, r) and we want to find the value of r. So, let's substitute -10 for x and r for y, since -10 is our x and r is our y. So:

$r=-(-10)-6$

Evaluate for r. Distribute:

$r=10-6$

Subtract:

$r=4$

So, the value of r is 4.

And we're done!
