5x - 2y = 17

4x - 3y = 8

Try to change one of the equations to isolate a variable, so you can use the new equation and substitute it into the other equation.

5x - 2y = 17

-2y = 17 - 5x

y = -17/2 + 5/2x

Now plug this into the second equation

4x - 3(-17/2 + 5/2x) = 8

4x + 51/2 - 15/2x = 8

8/2x - 15/2x = 16/2 - 51/2

-7/2x = -35/2

x = 5

Plug this into either equation to find y

4x - 3y = 8

4(5) - 3y = 8

20 - 3y = 8

-3y = -12

y = 4


x = 5, y = 4

A worker wants to save enough money to buy new
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

The least amount of numbers that he can work at his job to have enough for the headphones he wants is 17 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of hours you could divide the cost of the headphones by the amount he earns each hour so you would do $119/ 7 to get 17 and then you could check your answer with multiplication by multiplying 7 * 17 to get 119 which shows that he has to work at least 17 hours to get the headphones he wants.

$119 / 7 = 17

17 * 7 = 119

A Russian blue kitten costs $150 more than Manx kitten 9 blue kittens and 8 Manx kittens costs. Total of 14,100 write down a alg
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The equations 9x+8y=14100 and x = y+150 are in the simplest form.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Russian blue kitten costs $150 more than Manx kitten.

Cost of 9 blue kittens and  8 Manx kittens = $14100

Let,

x be the price of one Russian blue kitten.

y be the price of one Manx kitten.

According to given statement;

9x+8y=14100

x = y+150

Hence,

The equations 9x+8y=14100 and x = y+150 are in the simplest form.

When i am solving for the sides of a right triangle when will i use trigonometric functions
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The ratios of the sides of a right triangle are called trigonometric ratios. We need to use trigonometric functions to find them when we don't have any angle other than 90 degree shown.

Three common trigonometric ratios are the sine (sin), cosine (cos), and tangent (tan). These are defined for acute angle.

However when we have one angle given with the 90 degree we can deduct without trigonometry but we would use all angles to find the hypotenuse or all angles to find the side of a right angle.

Alternatively, we cna do this with one given angle but if we have one, we might as well work out the other one without trigonometry and do a division with Sin = 25 (sin 35) sin 90  / sin 55

is one example when given the base 25ft that would find the hypotenuse or the length of elevation for buildings looking down or zip-wire questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

       A

       |  \

       l     \

4cm|        \ 5cm

       |          \

       |            \

   B | -  -  -  -  \ C      

          3cm

Suppose we wanted to find sin( A) in△ABC    

(The height of the wall in elevation questions would be used above the base shown 3cm at the start) Sin = 3 (sin 35)° sin 90°  / sin 55° to find the height side (4).

Sine is defined as the ratio of the opposite to the hypotenuse

sin(A) =  hypotenuse          ​= AB/BC        = 3/5

             / opposite
