The area of a piece of land that is in the shape of a triangle is 1/12 square mile. One dimension of this piec of land is 4/21.
Arisa [49]

Answer:

D2=21/24 mile

Step-by-step explanation:

Her it is not specified if it is base or height, it only talks about dimensions, so let's work with dimensions

A=1/12 mile^{2}

D1=4/21mile, D2=?

Area of a triangle A=\frac{b.h}{2}

A=((D1*D2)/2) → 2A=D1*D2 → D2=2A/D1 so D2=(2*1/12)/(4/21) =(1/6)/(4/21) = (1*21)/(6*4)=21/24 mile

For which system of equations is (5, 3) the solution? A. 3x – 2y = 9 3x + 2y = 14 B. x – y = –2 4x – 3y = 11 C. –2x – y = –13 x
Alla [95]
The <u>correct answer</u> is:

D) \left \{ {{2x-y=7} \atop {2x+7y=31}} \right..

Explanation:

We solve each system to find the correct answer.

<u>For A:</u>
\left \{ {{3x-2y=9} \atop {3x+2y=14}} \right.

Since we have the coefficients of both variables the same, we will use <u>elimination </u>to solve this.  

Since the coefficients of y are -2 and 2, we can add the equations to solve, since -2+2=0 and cancels the y variable:
\left \{ {{3x-2y=9} \atop {+(3x+2y=14)}} \right. &#10;\\&#10;\\6x=23

Next we divide both sides by 6:
6x/6 = 23/6
x = 23/6

This is <u>not the x-coordinate</u> of the answer we are looking for, so <u>A is not correct</u>.

<u>For B</u>:
\left \{ {{x-y=-2} \atop {4x-3y=11}} \right.

For this equation, it will be easier to isolate a variable and use <u>substitution</u>, since the coefficient of both x and y in the first equation is 1:
x-y=-2

Add y to both sides:
x-y+y=-2+y
x=-2+y

We now substitute this in place of x in the second equation:
4x-3y=11
4(-2+y)-3y=11

Using the distributive property, we have:
4(-2)+4(y)-3y=11
-8+4y-3y=11

Combining like terms, we have:
-8+y=11

Add 8 to each side:
-8+y+8=11+8
y=19

This is <u>not the y-coordinate</u> of the answer we're looking for, so <u>B is not correct</u>.

<u>For C</u>:
Since the coefficient of x in the second equation is 1, we will use <u>substitution</u> again.

x+2y=-11

To isolate x, subtract 2y from each side:
x+2y-2y=-11-2y
x=-11-2y

Now substitute this in place of x in the first equation:
-2x-y=-13
-2(-11-2y)-y=-13

Using the distributive property, we have:
-2(-11)-2(-2y)-y=-13
22+4y-y=-13

Combining like terms:
22+3y=-13

Subtract 22 from each side:
22+3y-22=-13-22
3y=-35

Divide both sides by 3:
3y/3 = -35/3
y = -35/3

This is <u>not the y-coordinate</u> of the answer we're looking for, so <u>C is not correct</u>.  

<u>For D</u>:
Since the coefficients of x are the same in each equation, we will use <u>elimination</u>.  We have 2x in each equation; to eliminate this, we will subtract, since 2x-2x=0:

\left \{ {{2x-y=7} \atop {-(2x+7y=31)}} \right. &#10;\\&#10;\\-8y=-24

Divide both sides by -8:
-8y/-8 = -24/-8
y=3

The y-coordinate is correct; next we check the x-coordinate  Substitute the value for y into the first equation:
2x-y=7
2x-3=7

Add 3 to each side:
2x-3+3=7+3
2x=10

Divide each side by 2:
2x/2=10/2
x=5

This gives us the x- and y-coordinate we need, so <u>D is the correct answer</u>.

What is the perimeter, in units, of polygon UVWXYZ? Enter your answer in the box.
nikitadnepr [17]

Given:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

To find:

The perimeter of the polygon UVWXYZ.

Solution:

All sides and vertical and horizontal. So, we can easily find the side lengths of the given polygon by counting the boxes between two points.

From the figure it is clear that,

UV = 9 units

VW = 2 units

WX = 3 units

XY = 3 units

YZ = 6 units

ZU = 5 units

Now, perimeter is the sum of all the sides.

Perimeter=UV+VW+WX+XY+YZ+ZU

Perimeter=9+2+3+3+6+5

Perimeter=28

Therefore, the perimeter of UVWXYZ is 28 units.
