-2x + 6y = 6

6y - 6 = 2x

6(y-1) = 2x

(1/2) * 6(y-1) = 2x * (1/2)

x = 3(y-1)

------------

If, x = 3(y-1),

-7 * 3(y-1) + 8y = -5

-21 * (y-1) + 8y = -5

-21y + 21 + 8y = -5

21 + 5 = 21y - 8y

26 = 13y

y = 26/13

Therefore: y=2.

----------

If y=2,

x = 3(2-1) = 3

-----------

Answers:

x=3 and y=2.

The point P(21,35) is on the terminal side of an angle in standard position. What is the distance from P to the origin?

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

The distance from P to origin is approximately 40.82 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the data:

The point P(21,35)

We have to find the distance of point P from the origin.

Coordinates of origin: (0,0)

Distance formula:

$(x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2)\\\\d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2}$

Putting the values, we get,

$(21,35), (0,0)\\\\d = \sqrt{(0-21)^2 + (0-35)^2} = \sqrt{1666} = 7\sqrt{34} \approx 40.82\text{ units}$

The distance from P to origin is approximately 40.82 units.

Woman and men would be the same price, if the haircuts are very popular, each gender got the same haircut, then they also would be the same price, it is mostly about the prices, interestingness, and popularity or each barbershop, go by your nearest barbershop and see what prices they have. :))
