Answer:
(2, - 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
x + 2y = - 6 → (1)
3x + y = 2 → (2)
Multiplying (2) by - 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the term in y
- 6x - 2y = - 4 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y
- 5x = - 10 ( divide both sides by - 5 )
x = 2
Substitute x = 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (1)
2 + 2y = - 6 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
2y = - 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )
y = - 4
Solution is (2, - 4 )
Answer:
Pretty sure it's (4, -5)
Step-by-step explanation:
If not, shoot me I guess.
Substitute y=4x to the second equation:
x^2 + (4x)^2 = 17
x^2 + 16x^2 = 17
17x^2 = 17
x^2 = 17/17
x^2 = 1
x = 1 and -1
When x=1, y=4(1) = 4
When x=-1, y=4(-1) = -4
Thus the solutions would be (1,4) and (-1,-4). That would correspond to D. and A.
Amy: x skirts
Betty: 2x skirts
Carol: (2x) + 7 skirts
If Amy has 18 less than Carol, than Carol's equation minus 18 equals Amy's equation:
[(2x) + 7] - 18 = x
+18 +18
(2x) + 7 = x + 18
- 7 -7
2x = x + 11
-x -x
x = 11
Input the solution for x into the girls equation to double check.
Amy: 11
Betty: 2(x)
2(11)
=22
Carol: (2x) + 7
22 + 7
=29
Does Amy have 18 less than Carol?
Carol - Amy = 18
29 - 11 = 18
18 = 18
the problem is solved
Answer:
24cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the rectangle is length × breadth. You already know the area and the breadth, so you can find the length.
288cm² = length × 12cm
length = 288cm² ÷ 12cm
= 24cm
