Answer:

(5,-1) or x=5 y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

I used the substitution method to solve this!

<em>1. Pick one of your equations and solve for one of the variables. I chose the first equation and solved for x.</em>

x-2y=7

(Move the -2y to the other side of the equation in order to get the x by itself. You do the opposite, so it becomes +2y.)

x=2y+7

<em>2. Now take your second equation and plug in what you got for x into the x variable.</em>

2(2y+7)+5y=5

(Multiple 2 by everything inside of the parentheses.)

4y+14+5y=5

(We want to get the y by itself, so move the 14 to the other side.)

4y+5y=-14+5

(Combine all the like terms.)

9y=-9

(Divide the 9 from the y. What you do to one side you must do to the other.)

y=-1

<em>3. Since you have one variable solved for. Now take the first equation and plug in your y.</em>

x-2(-1)=7

(Multiple -2 by -1)

x+2=7

(Move the 2 to the other side in order to get the x by itself.)

x=5

<em>4. If needed, plug in your x and y values into the equations in order to check your answer.</em>

Hope this could help!

A rancher has 1000 feet of fencing in which to construct adjacent, equally sized rectangular pens. What dimensions should these
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

The dimensions that will maximize the enclosed area of the pen is 250 ft by 250 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the perimeter as 1000

So the sum of the lengths will be

1000/2 = 500

The dimensions that will maximize these pens will be such that they will have equal values

Mathematically, that will be 500/2 = 250 by 250
