Answer:

x = 1, y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

- 2x + 10y = -22 _______(1)

-2x - 4y = 6 _______(2)

From (1),

10y + 22 = 2x

x = (10y + 22) / 2

x = 5y + 11 .______(3)

Substitute (3) into (2),

-2 ( 5y + 11) -4y = 6

-10y - 22 - 4y = 6

-14y = 6 + 22

-14y = 28

y = 28/ -14

y =-2

Substitute y = -2 into (3).

x = 5y + 11

x = 5(-2) + 11

x = -10 + 11

x = 1

Therefore, the solution is x = 1, y = -2.

Yes. It's right triangle

<span>the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse....It's right triangle angle</span>

Write a quadratic equation in standard form that has 5 3 and 7 3 as its roots. A) 9x2 − 36x + 35 = 0 B) 9x2 + 36x − 35 = 0 C) 9x

Serggg [28]

Answer:

Option A)

$9x^2 - 36x + 35 = 0$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Roots of quadratic equation are:

$\alpha = \dfrac{5}{3}, \beta = \dfrac{7}{3}$

The sum of the roots and the product of the roots can be calculated as:

$\alpha + \beta = \dfrac{5+7}{3} = 4\\\\\alpha\beta = \dfrac{5}{3}\times \dfrac{7}{3} = \dfrac{5}{9}$

Standard form of quadratic equation:

$x^2-(\alpha + \beta)x+\alpha\beta = 0$

Putting values, we get,

$x^2 - 4x + \dfrac{35}{9} = 0\\\\9x^2 - 36x + 35 = 0$

is the required quadratic equation.

Thus, the correct answer is

Option A)

$9x^2 - 36x + 35 = 0$
