Solve the following system of equations by linear combination: 2d + e = 8 d – e = 4

1 answer:

Because there is a +e and a -e in the two equations we can simply add them together to solve for d...

2d+e+d-e=8+4 combine like terms

3d=12 divide by 3

d=4, now use this d in either original equation to solve for e...<span>d–e=4 so

4-e=4 subtract 4

-e=0

e=0

So the solution, where the lines intersect graphically, is the point (4, 0)</span>

PLEASE, I NEED HELP FOR A CLASS. The length of triangle base is 26. A line, which is parallel to the base divides the triangle i

sasho [114]

Answer:

$DE=18.38$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the length of triangle base is 26 that is BC=26.

A line, which is parallel to the base divides the triangle into two equal area parts.

Therefore, from the given information, $\frac{{\triangle}ADE}{ar ABC}=\frac{1}{2}$ .

Now, since it is given that A line, which is parallel to the base divides the triangle into two equal area parts, thus

$\frac{ar ADE}{arABC}=\frac{1}{2}=\frac{(DE)^{2}}{(BC)^{2}}$

⇒ $\frac{(DE)^{2}}{(BC)^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}$

⇒ $\frac{(DE)^{2}}{(26)^{2}}=\frac{1}{2}$

⇒ $(DE)^{2}=13{\times}26=338$

⇒ $DE=18.38$
