Answer:

ab=14.4

Step-by-step explanation:

This is going to be tricky to explain over text, so try to bear with me :) You have the information given above. Let's start with just ad = 11.6 for now. since these are variables, it can also be understood be understood as a times d= 11.6.  Knowing this, we can figure out that d = 11.6/a, when you divide both sides by a. You now have d, so plug (11.6/a) into cd=6.7. You have to do the same thing you did last time, except this time you are aiming to get c by itself. So, multiply both sides by a/11.6 and you get c = (6.7a)/ 11.6.  Guess what, you know c now! so you put (6.7a)/11.6 in for c in the equation given to you earlier, bc =8.3. The math gets a bit messy here, but you basically solve for b here, which, when you crunch the numbers down, ends up being ~14.3705 divided by a. You are looking for ab, so just multiply both sides by a, and round to the nearest tenth so that you have ab= 14.4

What is the solution to the following system of equations? 4x + 2y = 18 x − y = 3
Ber [7]

For this case we have the following system of equations:

4x + 2y = 18\\x-y = 3

To solve, we clear "x" from the second equation:

x = 3 + y

We substitute "x" in the first equation:

4 (3 + y) + 2y = 18\\12 + 4y + 2y = 18\\12 + 6y = 18

We clear the value of the variable "y":

6y = 18-12\\6y = 6\\y = \frac {6} {6}\\y = 1

We look for the value of the variable "x":

x = 3 + y\\x = 3 + 1\\x = 4

Thus, the solution of the system is given by:

(x, y) :( 4,1)

Answer:

(x, y) :( 4,1)
