I would say A. is the correct answer. Definitely a weird one. Hope this helps!
The area formula for a triangle is 1/2 (base * height)
Delete as this is the wrong answer. Made a typo in the answer.
Answer:
x = 
y = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x - 8y = 20 .... (1)
-5x + y = 19 .... (2)
What we can do is take the (2) equation
-5x + y = 19
and solve for y by adding 5x to both sides
y = 24
now that we have y we substitute it in for y in equation (1)
-3x - 8(24) = 20
-3x - 192 = 20
we want to solve for x so we need to get its self.
add 192 to both sides
-3x = 212
now we divide both sides by -3. It's going to be a fraction.
x = 
Answer:
See method below.
Step-by-step explanation:
m/n + n/3 = 2
2/m + n = 4
First eliminate the fractions by multiplying the first equation by 3n:-
3m + n^2 = 6n...........(1)
and the second equation by m:-
2 + mn = 4m..............(2)
Now we solve using substitution:-
From equation (2):-
4m - mn = 2
m = 2 / (4 - n)
Now substitute for m in equation (1):-
6/ (4 - n) + n^2 = 6n
6 + n^2(4 - n) = 6n(4 - n)
6 + 4n^2 - n^3 = 24n - 6n^2
n^3 - 10n^2 + 24n - 6 = 0
This will not factor so we could solve this using graphical software.
To find the values of the variable m we substitute the found values of n into one of the original equations and solve for m.
Answer: $2,700
Step-by-step explanation:
$18,000 times 5% = 900
900 times 3 is 2,700
Therefore your answer will be 2,700
