Answer:Second Step
Step-by-step explanation:
On the right side in step two you added -3b-15b, and ended up with -12b. This is incorrect. -3b-15b is actually -18b
Answer:
y = -2x + 2 i think
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<h2>a = 400/21, b = 580/21</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Small triangles are similar. Therefore, the sides are proportional
<em>cross multiply</em>
<em>divide both sides by 21</em>
For b, we can use the Pythagorean theorem:
Answer:
(3,-4) or x=3 and y= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to solve this by substitution
We first need to get a variable by itself in one of the two equations (it doesn't matter which variable and the equation you do the work on doesn't matter either)
I'm going to solve for y in the second equation
-4x-4y=4
add 4y and subtract 4 from both sides to get
-4x-4=4y
Divide by 4 to get
-x-1=y
We can plug this value in for y into the first equation and get
4x+5(-x-1)= -8
Solve for x
4x-5x-5= -8
-x-5= -8
-x= -3
x=3
We can plug this value into one of the first two equations and solve for y
4(3)+5y= -8
12+5y= -8
5y= -20
y= -4
Therefore the solution is (3,-4) or x=3 and y= -4
