Answer:
(2, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The best way to do this to avoid tedious fractions is to use the addition method (sometimes called the elimination method). We will work to eliminate one of the variables. Since the y values are smaller, let's work to get rid of those. That means we have to have a positive and a negative of the same number so they cancel each other out. We have a 2y and a 3y. The LCM of those numbers is 6, so we will multiply the first equation by a 3 and the second one by a 2. BUT they have to cancel out, so one of those multipliers will have to be negative. I made the 2 negative. Multiplying in the 3 and the -2:
3(-9x + 2y = -16)--> -27x + 6y = -48
-2(19x + 3y = 41)--> -38x - 6y = -82
Now you can see that the 6y and the -6y cancel each other out, leaving us to do the addition of what's left:
-65x = -130 so
x = 2
Now we will go back to either one of the original equations and sub in a 2 for x to solve for y:
19(2) + 3y = 41 so
38 + 3y = 41 and
3y = 3. Therefore,
y = 1
The solution set then is (2, 1)
Answer:
When graphing a linear inequality on a number line, use an open circle for <em><u>"less than" or "greater than",</u></em> and a closed circle for "less than or equal to" or "greater than or equal to".
Answer:
x³ - 5x² + 81x - 405 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Complex roots occur in conjugate pairs.
Thus given x = - 9i is a root then x = 9i is also a root
The factors are then (x - 5), (x - 9i) and (x + 9i)
The polynomial is the the product of the roots, that is
f(x) = (x - 5)(x - 9i)(x + 9i) ← expand the complex factors
= (x - 5)(x² - 81i²) → note i² = - 1
= (x - 5)(x² + 81) ← distribute
= x³ + 81x - 5x² - 405, thus
x³ - 5x² + 81x - 405 = 0 ← is the polynomial equation
Answer: Angle ABC = 60, angle CBD = 120 and angle GFH = 60
Step-by-step explanation: Line ABD is parallel to line EFG. Line line CFH is a straight line that cuts across both parallel lines. Therefore, angle FBD and angle HFG are corresponding angles. That means angle FBD equals 3x. Also 3x plus 6X equals 180. That is,
3x + 6x = 180 {Sum of angles on a straight line equals 180}
9x = 180
Divide both sides of the equation by 9
x = 20.
That means angle 6x measures 6(20) and that is 120 degrees.
Also angle 3x measures 3(20) and that is 60 degrees.
Angle ABC + Angle CBD = 180 {Sum of angles on a straight line equals 180}
Angle ABC + 120 = 180
Angle ABC = 180 - 120
Angle ABC = 60
Also angle CBD equals 6x, and x = 20. Therefore angle CBD = 6 x 20
Angle CBD = 120.
And then, angle GFH = 3x, and x equals 20. Hence angle GFH = 60.
Therefore angle ABC = 60, angle CBD = 120 and angle GFH = 60.
