Answer:

x = -2 and y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

4x + 5y = 7    -----(1)

3x – 2y = –12   ----(2)

<u>To find the value of x and y</u>

eq(1) * 3 ⇒

12x + 15y = 21   ----(3)

eq(2) * 4 ⇒

12x - 8y = -48  ---(4)

eq(3) - eq(4) ⇒

12x + 15y = 21   ----(3)

<u>12x - 8y = -48 </u> ---(4)

 0 + 23y = 69

y = 69/23 = 3

Substitute the value of y in eq(1)

4x + 5y = 7    ----(1)

4x + 5*3 = 7

4x = 7 - 15 = -8

x = -8/4 = -2

Therefore x = -2 and y = 3

Find the cube roots of 125(cos 288° + i sin 288°)
kow [346]
Let r(cos O + i sin O)  be a cube root of 125(cos 288 + i sin 288)
then
r^3(cos O + i sin O)^3  =  125(cos 288 + i sin 28)

so r^3 = 125  and  cos 3O + i sin 3O  =  cos 288 + i sin 288

so r  = 5  and 3O = 288 + 360p and O = 96 +  120p

so one cube root is   5 (cos 96 + i sin 96)

Im a little rusty at this stuff Its been a long time.

Im not sure of the other 2 roots

sorry cant help you any more

Two sides of an obtuse triangle measure 12 inches and 14 inches. The longest side measures 14 inches
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add the lengths of two sides, 12 and 14, you will get 28. Using the above theorem, the third side cannot be greater than or equal to 28. Therefore, the greatest possible whole-number length of the unknown side is 27.

Given the formula K = LMN, what is the formula for M?
Andre45 [30]
To start off devide both sides by M i.e
K/M=LMN/M
-> K/M=LN
Then devide by K to remove it on the left , this will end you up with M=LN/K
So the answer is (c).
Hope this helps :).
