5x – 7y= 16 2 + 7y = 8. what is x?

Mathematics
1 answer:
valentina_108 [34]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x=45/6

Step-by-step explanation:

2+7y=8. 7y=8-2. <u>7</u><u>y</u><u>=</u><u>6</u>

7=7. y=6\7

insert the value of y in the second equation. 5x-7y=16

5x-7(6/7)=16

5x-49\6=16

collect the liketerms together

5x=16+49/6

5x=145/6(divide both sides by 5)

x=29/6

x=45/6

<em><u>f</u></em><em><u>u</u></em><em><u>r</u></em><em><u>t</u></em><em><u>h</u></em><em><u>e</u></em><em><u>r</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>

<em><u> </u></em>confirm if the 2 in the second equation has an X coz the questions are normally set with both equations having both values x and y

In the diagram below what is the relationship between the number of rectangles in the perimeter of the figure they form?
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

the correct answer is the third one.  (1, 16), (2, 20), (3, 24)

Step-by-step explanation:

A perimeter is a path that surrounds a two-dimensional shape.

In the first case, 1 rectangle, the perimeter is the sum of all the sides:

Perimeter = 6 + 2 + 6 + 2 = 16

In the second case, 2 rectangles, the perimeter is the sum of all external sides:

Perimeter = 6 + 2 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 2 = 20

In the third case, three rectangles, the perimeter is the sum of all external sides:

Perimeter = 6 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 6 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 24

In none of the cases, you take into consideration the interal sides. Just the external sides, so the correct answer is the third one.

A cyclist estimates that he will bike 80 miles this week. He actually bikes 75.5 miles. What is the percent error of the cyclist
vazorg [7]

Answer:

6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Estimated distance = 80 miles

Actual distance covered = 75.5 miles

We need to find the percent error of the cyclist's estimate. Its formula is given by :

\%=\dfrac{|\text{actual value-estimated value}|}{\text{actual value}}\times 100

Put all the values,

\%=\dfrac{80-75.5}{75.5}\times 100\\\\=5.96\%

or

= 6%

So, the percentage error is 6%.
