Answer: There are many uses for the variable* y in math: it is often used as a variable and the y axis of a coordinate plane (the line that is vertical.)
* = Variable: any unknown number in algebra, is usually replaced with letters, such as x or y.
We can use a system of equations to solve this.
Length 1 = x
Length 2 = y
Set up the system.
2x+2y=38
x+1=4y
Isolate the variable on one equation.
x=4y-1
Substitute that into the other equation.
2(4y-1)+2y=38
Solve.
8y-2+2y=38
10y=40
y=4
Substitute back into other equation.
x=4(4)-1=16-1=15
The lengths are 15 cm and 4 cm.
Hope this helps!
No I will not help you out. You should figure that out yourself.
Answer:
8 - 8i
Step-by-step explanation:
w= 4 - 4i
w + w = (4-4i) + (4-4i)
= 8 - 8i
Uh... I think x is -12 and y is 2
