Answer:
x = -5, and y = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that we have two equations:
A = B
and
C = D
combining the equations means that we will do:
First we multiply both whole equations by constants:
k*(A = B) ---> k*A = k*B
j*(C = D) ----> j*C = j*D
And then we "add" them:
k*A + j*C = k*B + j*D
Now we have the equations:
-x - y = 11
4*x - 5*y = 10
We want to add them in a given form that one of the variables cancels, so we can solve it for the other variable.
Then we can take the first equation:
-x - y = 11
and multiply both sides by 4.
4*(-x - y = 11)
Then we get:
4*(-x - y) = 4*11
-4*x - 4*y = 44
Now we have the two equations:
-4*x - 4*y = 44
4*x - 5*y = 10
(here we can think that we multiplied the second equation by 1, then we have k = 4, and j = 1)
If we add them, we get:
(-4*x - 4*y) + (4*x - 5*y) = 10 + 44
-4*x - 4*y + 4*x - 5*y = 54
-9*y = 54
So we combined the equations and now ended with an equation that is really easy to solve for y.
y = 54/-9 = -6
Now that we know the value of y, we can simply replace it in one of the two equations to get the value of x.
-x - y = 11
-x - (-6) = 11
-x + 6 = 11
-x = 11 -6 = 5
-x = 5
x = -5
Then:
x = -5, and y = -6
Answer:
0.875 is the equivalent fraction
The answer is 21
By comparing the 4 vertices you can determine the rectangle x-length and y-length. The coordinate for the vertice is:
1,+4i
-2, +4i
-2, -3i
1, -3i
From the coordinate, you can see there are 2 x coordinate(1 and -2) and 2 y coordinate(4i and -3i) that used.
The x-length would be: 1 - (-2)= 3
The y-length would be: 4i- (-3i)= 7i
Then the area of the rectangle would be:
area= x-length * y-length= 3*7=21
