Alright...simple...showing all steps.. ;)

You have the equations...

2x+y=7
and
3x+5y=14

To be able to even solve for any of the variables...multiply the equations by...2...and..3...

2x+y=7----*3--> 6x+3y=21
and
3x+5y=14-----*2--->6x+10y=28

Thus,

6x+3y=21
-
6x+10y=28

=========

-7y=-7

y=1

Now, plug y back into any of the original equations....we'll use 2x+y=7 in this case....

2x+(1)=7

2x+1=7
      -1  -1

2x=6

x=3

Thus, the point of intersection for these two equations is (3,1)

A square has an area of 576 great inches how long is each side of feet
bija089 [108]
The formula for the area of a square is A=s*s or A=s^2
So we can plug in the area and solve for the side
576=s^2 (square root both sides)
s=24 inches

Since one foot is 12 inches, 24 inches would be 2 feet

Hope this helps
