Answer:

The solution is: (2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

I have the following system of equations

12x - y = 25

9x + y =17

Note that if we add both equations, the variable y is "eliminated".

So add the first equation to the second and solve for the variable x

12x - y = 25

9x + y =17

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

21x=42

x=\frac{42}{21}\\\\x=2

Now substitute the value of x in any of the two equations and solve for the variable y

9(2) + y =17

18 + y =17

y =17-18

y =-1

The solution is: (2, -1)

Answer:

the ordered pair is (2,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the system of equations using elimination method

12x - y = 25     eq(1)

9x + y = 17      eq(2)

Adding eq(1) and eq(2)

12x - y = 25

9x + y = 17

___________

21x = 42

x = 42/21

x= 2

Now, putting value of x in equation 1

12x - y = 25

12(2) -y = 25

24 -y = 25

Adding -24 on both sides

24 -y-24 = 25-24

-y = 25-24

-y = 1

Multiply both sides by -1

y = -1

the value of x = 2 and y = -1

So, the ordered pair is (2,-1)

Find the length of a side of the<br> square shown below.<br> х<br> 6V2<br> X =<br> x = [?]
Leona [35]

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

In a square, its angles are all 90 degrees. So, cutting a square in half into two triangles from corner to corner produces 45 degree angles on both sides. Since the triangles are now 45-45-90 triangles, we can use the rule where the hypotenuse of the triangle is equal to the square root of 2 times the length of either side. So, the side length is 6.
