Answer:

(0,-8)

x=0

y=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways you can solve this I used what I think is called the elimination method

We first start by writing the equations in linear form (y=mx+b)

For the first one we have -12x-5y=40

we add 5y to both sides and subtract 40 to get

-12x-40=5y

divide by 5 to get

-12/5x-8=y

Then the second one we have

12x-11y=88

same deal here, add 11y and subtract 88 to get

12x-88=11y

divide by 11 and get

12/11x-8=y

We then set the two equations equal to each other and get

-12/5x-8=12/11x-8

We can add 8 to both sides and get

-12/5x=12/11x

Just by looking at it you can see that the only solution for x is 0

Plug in 0 to the first equation and get -12*0-5y=40

This means that -5y=40

Solve for y and get -8

You sure seem to be asking a lot of questions lately. I'd like to see that you've been trying with these problems at least because if you can't get that first one it's almost like you missed the whole lesson.

1. 20 = 4b + 7 + 5
Add the 7 and 5.
20 = 4b + 12
Subtract 12 from each side.
8 = 4b
Divide each side by 4.
2 = b

2. 7 = 6k - 7k
6k - 7k = -1k. (the k acts as a sort of unit)
7 = -1k
Divide each side by -1.
-7 = k

3. 3.23 - 2m = 3 - 2(5m - 2)
Distribute the ×-2 to each term inside the parentheses.
3.23 - 2m = 3 - 10m + 4
Add the 3 and 4.
3.23 - 2m = 7 - 10m
Add 10m to each side.
3.23 + 8m = 7
Subtract 3.23 from each side.
8m = 3.77
Divide by 8.
m = 0.47125

4. -88/45=1/3r+2/5r
To get rid of the fractions, let's multiply everything by 45.
-88 = 15 + 18r
Subtract 15 from each side.
-103 = 18r
Divide by 18.
-103/18 = r
As a mixed number, r = -5 and 13/18
As a decimal, r = -5.7222...

The diagonals of a rhombus are 12 in. and 16 in. long. The length of a side of the rhombus is 10 in. What is the height of the r
iris [78.8K]
If d₁ and d₂ are the lengths of the diagonals, the area is given by
.. A = (1/2)*d₁*d₂
.. A = (1/2)*(12 in)*(16 in)
.. A = 96 in²

If b is the base and h is the height, the area is given by
.. A = b*h
We know the values of A and b, so
.. 96 in² = (10 in)*h
.. (96 in²)/(10 in) = h = 9.6 in

The height is 9.6 in.

If x2+y2 = 12 and x2-y2=18, what is the value of x4-y4?
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: add the equations

2x² = 30

x² = 15

y² = 12 - 15

    = -3

x4 -y4 = 15² - (-3)²

           = 216
