Answer:

$\left \{ {{x=3} \atop {y=-7}} \right.$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can directly substitute y of the first equation to the second equation.

-2x - 1 = 3x - 16

5x = 15

x = 3

Substituting back to any of the two equations, we get y = -2(3)-1 = -7. If you check with the second equation, y = 3(3)-16 = -7 as well.

Therefore $\left \{ {{x=3} \atop {y=-7}} \right.$ .

Which of the following expressions is equivalent to 20 + 30x?

Nostrana [21]

You have to get X all by itself so you divide 20 and 30 which gives you a fraction. X= 20/30
Then = 2/3

This trapezium is drawn on a centimetre grid. Find the area of the trapezium.

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

20 unit²

Step-by-step explanation:

A trapezium is given to us on the grid and we need to find out the area of the trapezium . In order to find the area , we need to find the measure of the parallel sides and the distance between the parallel sides.

From the grid :-

$\rm\implies Side_1 = 7 \ units$

$\rm\implies Side_2 = 3 \ units$

$\rm\implies \perp \ Distance =4 \ units$

Now here we got the two parallel sides of the trapezium and the distance between the two parallel sides. Now we can find the area as ,

$\rm\implies Area_{Trapezium}= \dfrac{1}{2}\times ( s_1 + s_2) \times \perp \ Distance \\\\\rm\implies Area = \dfrac{1}{2} \times ( 7 + 3 ) \times 4 \ unit^2 \\\\\rm\implies Area = \dfrac{1}{2} \times ( 10) \times 4 \ unit^2 \\\\\rm\implies\boxed{\rm Area = 20 \ unit^2}$
