Mathematics

Answer:

y= 1 and X=4

Step-by-step explanation:

8x +7y =39

8x +2y =34

elimination method(we multiply 8x+7y=39 or 8x + 2y= 34 by -1 to eliminate 8x)

lets multiply 8x+7y = 39 by - 1

-8x -7y = -39

8x +2y = 34

(8x-8x)+(2y-7y)= (-39+34)

0 + (-5y) = -5

-5y= -5......dividing both sides by -5

<em> y = 1</em>

8x +2y =34....... substituting y by 1

8x +2(1)= 34

8x + 2= 34

8x = 34-2

8x = 32.....dividing both sides by 8

<em>x = 4</em>

Lets check;

8x +2y = 34

8(4) +2(1) = 34

32 + 2 =34

<em>34 = 34</em>

8x + 7y = 39

8(4) + 7(1) = 39

32 + 7 =39

<em>39 = 39</em>

What is the area of this parallelogram <br><br> 20<br> 28<br> 30<br> 35
Vikentia [17]
ANSWER: 28

EXPLANATION:

Area is l • w or length • width. We know the width is 7 but for the length you only multiply the straight line. As 5 is slanted we use 4 instead, leaving us to multiply 7 • 4. This give us a solution of 28.
