Mathematics

Answer:

(-2,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract -7y from both sides to get x = 7y + 19

plug in

5(7y + 19) = -2y - 16

distribute the 5

35y + 95 = -2y - 16

subtract 95 from both sides

35y = -2y - 111

add -2y to both sides

37y = -111

divide both sides by 37

y = -3

plug in the y to find the x

x = 7(-3) + 19

multiply 7 and -3

x = -21 + 19

subtract

x = -2

make into a coordinate

(-2, -3)

x - 7y = 19          <em>multiply both sides by 5</em>

5x - 35y = 95

Substitute 5x = -2y - 16:

(-2y - 16) - 35y = 95

(-2y - 35y) - 16 = 95            <em>add 16 to both sides</em>

-37y = 111            <em>divide both sides by (-37)</em>

y = -3

Put the volue of y to the first equation:

x - 7(-3) = 19

x + 21 = 19            <em>subtract 21 from both sides</em>

x = -2

<h3>Answer: x = -2 and y = -3 → (-2, -3)</h3>

Mariulka [41]

= <u>187.3 yards</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The set-up will represent a triangle whereby the :

  • Width = Height = 150 yards
  • Diagonal = Hypotenuse = 240 yards
  • Length = Base = ?

{a}^{2}  =  {c}^{2}  -  {b}^{2}  \\ {a}^{2} =  {240}^{2}  -  {150}^{2}  \\ {a}^{2} = 57600 - 22500 \\  \sqrt{ {a}^{2} }  =  \sqrt{35100}  \\ a = 187.3yards \: (rounded \: off \: to \: 1dp)
