Let's use the "elimination by addition/subtraction" method to solve this system for x and y.
<span> -8x=72-16y
4x=-92+16y <= Mult. all 3 terms by 2: 8x = - 184 + 32y
Now combine the following, column by column:
</span><span> -8x= 72-16y
</span>8x = - 184 + 32y
-----------------------
0 = -112 + 16y. Solving for y, 16y = 112, and y = 7.
Now subst. 7 for y in either of the original equations and calculate x:
<span>4x=-92+16(7) => 4x = -92 + 112 = 20. Then x = 5.
Solution is 5, -7 (or, better written) (5, - 7).</span>
Unfortunately I do not know the rectangle you are speaking of, if you could provide the rectangle I would be happy to help.
Answer:
60cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. turn triangle into rectangle measuring 15x8
2. find area of rectangle (area = base*height): 8*15 = 120
3. Find area of triangle (divide rectangle area by 2): 120/2 = 60cm^2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. P = (width + lengh) * 2 = (23 + 10) * 2 = 33 * 2 = 66
A = width * lengh = 23 * 10 = 230
2. width = 7
P = (width + lengh) * 2 = ( 7 + 9) * 2 = 16 * 2 = 32
