Answer:
x=5.6
y=-5.6
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 5y = 14 Equation 1
– 2x + 2y = 0 Equation 2
Simultaneous equation can be solved either through elimination method or substitution method. But we use elimination method for this question
Multiply equation 1 by -2 (the coefficient of x in equation 2) and multiply equation 2 with 3 (the coefficient of x in equation 1), so that x will have the same coefficient in the new equations, and easy to eliminate
-2(3x - 5y = 14)
-6x+10y=-28 Equation 3
3(– 2x + 2y = 0)
-6x+6y=0 Equation 4
Subtract equation 4 from 3 to eliminate x
-6x+10y=-28
-6x+6y=0
-6x-(-6x)=-6x+6x=0
10y-6y=5y
-28-0=-28
5y=-28
y=-28/5
y=-5.6
Substitute for y in equation 2
– 2x + 2y = 0
– 2x + 2(-5.6) = 0
-2x-11.2=0
-2x=11.2
x=-11.2/2
x=5.6
Since the lines are parallel their slopes are equal. So, the equation is y=4x+b
Now we need to find the y-intercept, which is b.
Now, Plug in point p to find b:
3=4*(-1)+b
b=3+4=7
The equation is: y=4x+7
Answer:
(a)i. Area=72 square feet
ii. Perimeter =34 feet
(b) Baseboard - perimeter
Carpet - area
Step-by-step explanation:
The room is 9ft x 8ft, therefore it is rectangular shaped.
Length=9ft; Breadth=8ft
(a)i. Area of a Rectangle= Length X Breadth
Area of the room=8X9=72 square feet
ii. Perimeter of a Rectangle=2(Length+Breadth)
Perimeter of the room=2(8+9)=2 X 17 =34 feet
(b) A baseboard goes around the edge or boundary of the room, so it has to do with perimeter
A carpet covers the entire floor so it has to do with the area of the room.
