(A) 5x+2y=21
(B) -2x+6y=-34
multiply (A) by - 3→ -15x - 6y = - 63 (C)
Now add (C) to (B):
-15x - 6y = - 63 (C)
-2x + 6y =-34 (B)
----------- --------
-17x = - 97 and x = 97/17
Now replace x value in any of the equation and you'll find y = - 64/17
1st Answer (97/17 , - 64/17)
2nd Answer : 97/17 + (-64/17) = 97/17 - 64/17 = 33/17 ≈ 2
If u take you answer as x and do the problem u will see that they are equal so u would have to have a different answers for x or say -6.1 is greater than or equal to -17.4 + 11.3
Answer:
72 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the square in the middle is
A = s^2 = 6^2 = 36
The area of the triangle on the left is
A =1/2 bh = 1/2 ( 6*6) = 18
The area of the triangle on the right
A = 1/2 bh = 1/2(6*6) = 18
Add the areas together
36+18+18 = 72
