2x + 6y= 8 4x + 12y = 16

Mathematics
1 answer:
Korolek [52]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x=0 , y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

2x +6y= 8 .....eqn 1

4x +12y= 16....eqn2

we multiply eqn 1 by 2.. because we want at least one variable to have the same coefficient so we can simply.

2x +6y =8... ×2

will give you 4x +12y = 16....eqn 3

so now we subtract eqn 2 from eqn 3

4x + 12y= 16

- 4x + 12y = 16

_____________

0 + 0 = 0

therefore x = 0 and y= 0

The width of a rectangle is 9 in. shorter than its length. The area of the rectangle is 252 in². What is the length of the recta
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

the length of the rectangle is, 21 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the rectangle(A) is given by:

A=lw           .....[1]

where,

l is the length of the rectangle

w is the width of the rectangle.

As per the statement:

The width of a rectangle is 9 in. shorter than its length.

⇒w = l-9

It is also given that:

The area of the rectangle is 252 in².

⇒A = 252  in².

Substitute in [1] we have;

252 = l(l-9)

⇒252 = l^2-9l

⇒l^2-9l -252 = 0

Factorize this equation:

Split the middle term;

⇒l^2-21l+12l-252=0

⇒l(l-21)+12(l-21)=0

⇒(l-21)(l+12)=0

By zero product property we have;

l-21 =0 and l+12 =0

⇒l = 21 and l = -12

Since, length cannot be in negative

⇒l = 21 in.

Therefore, the length of the rectangle is, 21 inches.

What is X= to and what does Y= to?
Jet001 [13]

Step-by-step explanation:

Straight line = 180 °

5x + 78 = 180

5x = 180 - 78

5x = 102

x = 20.4

and y = 78 ° because y is an opposite angle of 78 °

____× 105 is 3,000 times greater than 2.3 × 102 and is _____ times greater than 1.38 × 101.
musickatia [10]
For this case we must calculate the values of the unknowns.
 We have then:
 x * 10 ^ 5 is 3,000 times greater than2.3 * 10 ^ 2
 We have the following equation:
 (x * 10 ^ 5) / (2.3 * 10 ^ 2) = 3000

 From here, we clear the value of x:
 x = (10 ^ 2/10 ^ 5) * (2.3 * 3000)

x = 6.9
 Then, on the other hand we have:
 "and is _____ times greater than 1.38 × 101"
 That is, we have the following equation:
 (6.9 * 10 ^ 5) / (1.38 * 10 ^ 1) = y

 The value of y is:
 y = 50000

 Answer:
 
6.9 × 105 is 3,000 times greater than 2.3 × 102 and is 50000 times greater than 1.38 × 101.
