Answer:
p =
and q = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations:
2p - 3q = 4 -----------(i)
3p + 2q = 9 ------------(ii)
Let's solve this equation simultaneously using the <em>elimination method</em>
(a) Multiply equation (i) by 3 and equation (ii) by 2 as follows;
[2p - 3q = 4] x 3
[3p + 2q = 9] x 2
6p - 9q = 12 -------------(iii)
6p + 4q = 18 -------------(iv)
(b) Next, subtract equation (iv) from equation (iii) as follows;
[6p - 9q = 12]
<u> - [6p + 4q = 18] </u>
<u> -13q = -6 </u> -----------------(v)
<u />
<u>(c)</u> Next, make q subject of the formula in equation (v)
q = 
(d) Now substitute the value of q =
into equation (i) as follows;
2p - 3(
) = 4
(e) Now, solve for p in d above
<em>Multiply through by 13;</em>
26p - 18 = 52
<em>Collect like terms</em>
26p = 52 + 18
26p = 70
<em>Divide both sides by 2</em>
13p = 35
p = 
Therefore, p =
and q = 
The answer is C because when adding two negatives it equals a positive
Answer:
64√2 or 64 StartRoot 2 EndRoot
Step-by-step explanation:
A 45-45-90 traingle is a special traingle. Let's say one of the leg of the triangle is x. The other one is also x because of the isosocles triangle theorem. Therefore, using the pytagorean theorem, you find that x^2+x^2=c^2. 2(x)^2=c^2. You then square root both sides and get c= x√2.
Therefore, the two legs are x and the hypotenuse is x√2. x√2=128 because the question says that the hypotenuse is 128. Solve for x by dividing both sides by √2. X=128/√2. You rationalize it by multiplying the numberator and denominator of the fraction by √2. √2*√2= 2.
X=(128√2)/2= 64√2 cm.
Since X is the leg, the answer would be 64√2
