Answer:

  (x, y) ≈ (1.1642, 3.3930) and (3.4358, -0.39297)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the first equation for y, then substitute into the second.

  5x +4/y = 7

  4/y = 7 -5x

  4/(7 -5x) = y

Then the second equation becomes ...

  4x +x/(4/(7 -5x)) = 5

  4x +x(7 -5x)/4 = 5

  16x +7x -5x^2 = 20 . . . . . multiply by 4

  5x^2 -23x +20 = 0 . . . . . put in standard form

We can use the quadratic formula to solve this.

  x = (23±√((-23)² -4(5)(20)))/(2(5)) = (23±√129)/10

  x = 2.3 ±√1.29 ≈ {1.1642, 3.4358}

  y = 4/(7 -5x) = {3.3930, -0.39297}

Solutions are (x, y) ≈ (1.1642, 3.3930) and (3.4358, -0.39297).

In the coordinate plane, draw quadrilateral ABCD with A(–5, 0), B(2, –6), C(8, 1), and D(1, 7), then demonstrate that ABCD is a
Len [333]

Answer:

ABCD is a rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ A = (-5 , 0) , B = (2 , -6) , C = (8 , 1) , D = (1 , 7)

∵ The x-coordinate of the mid-point of AC = (-5 + 8)/2 =3/2

∵ The y-coordinate of the mid-point of AC = (0 + 1)/2 = 1/2

∴ The mid-point of AC = (3/2 , 1/2)

∵ The x-coordinate of the mid-point of BD = (2 + 1)/2 =3/2

∵ The y-coordinate of the mid-point of BD = (-6 + 7)/2 = 1/2

∴ The mid-point of BD = (3/2 , 1/2)

∴ The mid-point of AC = The mid-point of BD ⇒ (1)

∵ AC = √[(8 - -5)²+(1 - 0)² = √170

∵ BD = √[(1 - 2)²+(7 - -6)² = √170

∴ AC = BD ⇒ (2)

From (1) and (2)

AC and BD equal each other and bisects each other

∴ ABCD is a rectangle
