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

Solve for the specified variable c=1/6rt for r
natali 33 [55]

t = \frac{1}{6ct}

multiply both sides by 6rt

6crt = 1 ( divide both sides by 6ct to obtain r )

t = \frac{1}{6ct}

Four squares are joined together to form one large square if the perimeter of one of the original squares of 8X units what is th
allsm [11]

Answer:

16 x units

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a original square= 8 x units

Perimeter of a square= 4× side

Side of a square = \frac{perimeter}{4}

Side of a square = \frac{8x}{4}

Side of a square= 2 x units

since four square are joined together to form a single square

So each side of a bigger square=   4 x units

Perimeter of a new bigger square= 4 × 4 x units

Perimeter of a new bigger square= 16 x units

Hence, the correct answer is 16 x units

Which is the equation of a line that is parallel to 2x + 5y = 4 and goes through the point (5, –4) ?
barxatty [35]

we know that

if two lines are parallel

then

their slopes are equal

Step 1

Find the slope of the line 2x + 5y = 4

2x + 5y = 4------> 5y=4-2x-----> y=(4/5)-(2/5)x------> slope m=(-2/5)

step 2

with m=-2/5 and the point (5, –4) find the equation of the line

y-y1=m*(x-x1)------> y+4=(-2/5)*(x-5)----> y=(-2/5)x+2-4

y=(-2/5)x-2

therefore

the answer is the option D
