4 units wide would be the answer bc the deminsions of the legs wouldn't change for a rectangle or a triangle
Answer:
4ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a. it has no solution
b. you can only substitute by making either the 'x' or 'y' the subject of either of the two equations.
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 9y = -13.............. eqn 1
x - 3y = -7................... eqn 2
from eqn 2
x - 3y = -7, substitute by making 'x' the subject
x = -7 + 3y.................. eqn 3
put eqn 3 into eqn 1
3x - 9y = -13
3( -7 + 3y) - 9y = -13
-21 + 9y - 9y = -13
9y - 9y = -13 + 21
0 = 8, which is not possible.
Trust me: You must know how to do this basic factoring yourself.
x^2 -5x - 6 factors into (x-6)(x+1). Note how I got that: -6 is the product of 1 and -6, and -6 + 1 = -5.
You could also factor this by grouping:
x^2 -5x - 6 = x(x-6) + 1(x-6). Note how the middle terms combine to produce -5x and how (x-6) is a factor common to both terms; this leaves (x+1). So the factors are (x-6)(x+1).
Here u go it would be 8x+15=7
