If we are eliminating x, we would multiply the 2nd equation by -5
5x + 18y = 23
x + 3y = 2....multiply by -5
-----------------
5x + 18y = 23
-5x - 15y = - 10 (result of multiplying by -5)
----------------add
0 + 3y = 13.....bye-bye x :)
Answer:
10.25
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4- is 0.25
SO
we don't have to change 10 because it is a whole number.
The answer is 10.25
Sounds as tho' you have an isosceles triangle (a triangle with 2 equal sides). If this triangle is also a right triangle (with one 90-degree angle), then the side lengths MUST satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem.
Let's see whether they do.
8^2 + 8^2 = 11^2 ???
64 + 64 = 121? NO. This is not a right triangle.
If you really do have 2 sides that are both of length 8, and you really do have a right triangle, then:
8^2 + 8^2 = d^2, where d=hypotenuse. Then 64+64 = d^2, and
d = sqrt(128) = sqrt(8*16) = 4sqrt(8) = 4*2*sqrt(2) = 8sqrt(2) = 11.3.
11 is close to 11.3, but still, this triangle cannot really have 2 sides of length 8 and one side of length 11.
