Hi !

Judy built a rectangular patio that is 9 meters wide and has a perimeter of 40 meters what is the length of Judy’s patio ?

$l=9\;m\\L=x$

$So\;Perimeter=2(9+x)=18+2x=40\;m\\\\18+2x=40\\2x=40-18\\2x=22\\\\x=\dfrac{22}{2}\\\\\boxed{x=L=11}$

The lenght of Judy's Patio is 11 meters.

Solve the system using elimination: -3x - 3y = 12 -9x + 3y = -24 The answer is not (-1,-3)

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

{x = 1, y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{-3 x - 3 y = 12 | (equation 1)

{3 y - 9 x = -24 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:

{-(9 x) + 3 y = -24 | (equation 1)

{-(3 x) - 3 y = 12 | (equation 2)

Subtract 1/3 × (equation 1) from equation 2:

{-(9 x) + 3 y = -24 | (equation 1)

0 x - 4 y = 20 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 3:

{-(3 x) + y = -8 | (equation 1)

{0 x - 4 y = 20 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 2 by 4:

{-(3 x) + y = -8 | (equation 1)

{0 x - y = 5 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by -1:

{-(3 x) + y = -8 | (equation 1)

{0 x+y = -5 | (equation 2)

Subtract equation 2 from equation 1:

{-(3 x)+0 y = -3 | (equation 1)

{0 x+y = -5 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by -3:

{x+0 y = 1 | (equation 1)

{0 x+y = -5 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = 1 , y = -5

A fair spinner has 12 equal sections: 5 red 4 blue and 3 green. its Spun twice what is the probability of getting the same colou

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

25/72

Step-by-step explanation:

P( blue) = blue / total = 4/12 = 1/3

P ( blue, blue) = 1/3 * 1/3 = 1/9

P ( red) = red / total = 5/12

P ( red, red) = 5/12 * 5/12 = 25/144

P ( green) = green /total = 3/12 =1/4

P ( green , green) = 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/16

Add these together to get

P( same colour twice) = 1/9+ 25/144 + 1/16

=16/144 + 25/144 + 9/144

=50/144

=25/72
