Answer:

x = -6/5

y =7/5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y = - 1

x - 2y = - 4

Multiply the first equation by 2 so we can eliminate y

2(2x + y = - 1)

4x + 2y = -2

Add this to the second equation

4x + 2y = -2

x - 2y = - 4

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

5x + 0y = -6

Divide by 5

5x/5 = -6/5

x = -6/5

Multiply the second equation by -2 so we can eliminate x

-2(x - 2y = - 4)

-2x+4y = 8

Add this to the first equation

2x + y = - 1

-2x+4y = 8

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

0x + 5y = 7

Divide by 5

5y/5 = 7/5

y =7/5

sesenic [268]

Answer:

30°, 30° and 120°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information given in the question.

let x be the measure of each congruent base angle , then

the third angle = 3x + 30

Sum the 3 angles and equate to 180

3x + 30 + x + x = 180, that is

5x + 30 = 180 ( subtract 30 from both sides )

5x = 150 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 30

Thus

The 2 congruent bas angles are each = 30°

The third angle = 3x + 30 = 3(30) + 30 = 90 + 30 = 120°

Which terms could be used as the last term of the expression below to create a polynomial written in standard form? Check all th
kogti [31]
A polynomial is said to be in standard form if it is written in the order of degree from highest to lowest from left to right.

The degree of a term of a polynomial is the exponent of the variable or the sum of the exponents of the variables of that term of the polynomial.

Thus, given the expression
-5x^2y^4 + 9x^3y^3+\_\_\_

-5x^2y^4 has a degree of 6, and
9x^3y^3 has a degree of 6.

Thus, the exponent of the variable or the sum of the exponents of the variables of the next term of the polynomial must be less than or equal to 6 for the polynomal to be said to be in standars form.

Therefore, the <span>terms that could be used as the last term of the given expression to create a polynomial written in standard form are
x^5, \\  \\ &#10;y^5, \\  \\ &#10;6x^4y, \ and \\  \\ &#10;-xy^5</span>
