Answer:
(1, –5)
Step-by-step explanation:
It is relatively easy to try the offered solutions to see what works.
<u>(1, -5)</u>
3(1) +10(-5) = -47 . . . true
5(1) -7(-5) = 40 . . . true
(1, -5) is the solution
_____
As a check, you can try some of the other choices:
<u>(1, 5)</u>
3(1) +10(5) ≠ -47
<u>(-1, -5)</u>
3(-1) +10(-5) ≠ -47
<u>(-1, 5)</u>
3(-1) +10(5) ≠ -47
None of the other choices works in the first equation, so they're not the solution.
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
This is honestly a pure guess, but I am guessing they want you to find a perfect triangle, and 3,4,5 is the smallest perfect triangle. Considering they also said it was a right triangle, I strongly beleive the answer is 5.
Set up multiplication of ratios so that they cancel out units that you do not need in your final answer...
5lb($4.20/2lb)=$10.50
Sure. What do you need help with exactly?
