Answer:

x = 7/5 , y = 6/5

Step-by-step explanation using elimination:

Solve the following system:

{x - 2 y = -1 | (equation 1)

2 x + y = 4 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:

{2 x + y = 4 | (equation 1)

x - 2 y = -1 | (equation 2)

Subtract 1/2 × (equation 1) from equation 2:

{2 x + y = 4 | (equation 1)

0 x - (5 y)/2 = -3 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by -2:

{2 x + y = 4 | (equation 1)

0 x+5 y = 6 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 2 by 5:

{2 x + y = 4 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 6/5 | (equation 2)

Subtract equation 2 from equation 1:

{2 x+0 y = 14/5 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 6/5 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 2:

{x+0 y = 7/5 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 6/5 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = 7/5 , y = 6/5

2 right triangles have identical angle measures but different side lengths. The first triangle has side lengths of 6, 10, 8 and

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Dilation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The first triangle has side lengths of 6, 10, 8 and the second triangle has side lengths of 3, 5, 4 such that these two right triangles have identical angle measures but different side lengths.

To choose: the correct option

Dilation refers to a transformation when a figure is reduced or enlarged.

Each side of the large triangle is halved to get the small triangle.

So, Dilation transformation maps the large triangle onto the small triangle

Two pounds of bananas cost $1.16 what would be the cost of 5pounds s of bananas

ivann1987 [24]

If 2 lb of bananas cost $1.16, then each pound costs $0.58.

0.58 * 5 = 2.9

So 5 lb of bananas will cost $2.90.

Hope this helps!

Probability question!!

Alisiya [41]

Convert both perecentages to decimal form by dividing each of them by 100 to get 0.60 and 0.65. Next, multiply by 0.60 and 0.65 to get 0.39. Multiply the product by 100 to get the percentage form, 39%. So, the answer is 39%.

This is a full assignment I’m struggling on if someone can answer them all and get most correct I will give you Brainliest for y

Effectus [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 1) Polynomial is closed under addition. In polynomial addition, only the coefficient change and variables and it powers does not change.

Example: Add 3x² - 2x + 7 and -2x² - 5x + 3

3x² - 2x + 7 - 2x² - 5x + 3 = 3x² -2x² - 2x - 5x + 7 + 3

= x² - 7x + 10

2)Polynomial is closed under addition. In polynomial subtraction, only the coefficient change and variables and it powers does not change.

Example: Subtract 3x - 2 from 4x + 2

4x + 2 - (3x - 2) = 4x + 2 - 3x + 2 = 7x + 4

3) Polynomial is closed under multiplication. In this, exponents of the variables are added according to the exponent rule. As the exponent of polynomials are whole numbers and whole numbers are closed under addition, the result will be a whole number.

-2x³ * 3x² = $-3*x^{3+2}=-3x^{5}$

4) Polynomial is not closed under multiplication. In division, we may get a negative exponent. So, it is not closed under division.

$\dfrac{x^{4}}{x^{9}}=x^{4-9}=x^{-5}\\\\x^{-5} \ is \ not \ a \ polynomial.$
