Use the elimination method by subtraction to solve for x and then y.

Mathematics
1 answer:
diamong [38]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Both equations have -7y. You can eliminate them by subtracting one equation from the other:

Multiply equation 1 by -1, then add it to equation 2:

-2x + 7y = 74

3x - 7y = -83

———————

x = -9

2x - 7y = -74

2(-9) - 7y = -74

-7y = -56

Y = 8

(x,y) = (-9, 8)

A student solved the following problem and made an error: Triangles ABC and DEF. Angles A and F are congruent and measure 135 de
dmitriy555 [2]
We have that
triangle ABC coordinates
A (0,2)  B(2,4)  C(0,0)

triangle DEF coordinates 
D (2,0)  E ( 4,4)  F (4,2)

using a graph tool
see the attached figure

therefore

Line 1<span> Segment AC equals 2. Segment FE equals 2. Segment AC is congruent to segment FE 
</span>so
Segment AC equals 2-------> is correct
Segment FE equals 2-----> is correct
Segment AC is congruent to segment FE------> is correct

<span>Line 2 ∠A ≅ ∠F------> is correct
</span>
<span>Line 3 Length of segment AB. A (0, 2) B (2, 4) d equals square root of quantity x sub 2 minus x sub 1 squared plus quantity y sub 2 minus y sub 1 squared, d equals square root of quantity 0 minus 2 all squared plus quantity 2 minus 4 all squared, d equals square root of negative 2 squared plus negative 2 squared, d equals square root of 4 plus 4, d equals square root of 8 segment AB = 2.83
</span>
find the distance AB
d=√[(4-2)²+(2-0)²]--------> d=√[4+4]-----> d=√8-----> d=2.83
AB=2.83
so
Line 3 is correct

<span>Line 4 Length of segment DE. D (2, 0) E (4, 4) d equals square root of quantity x sub 2 minus x sub 1 squared plus quantity y sub 2 minus y sub squared, d equals square root of quantity 2 minus 4 all squared plus quantity 0 minus 4 all squared, d equals square root of negative 2 squared plus negative 4 squared, d equals square root of 4 plus 16, then d equals square root of 20 segment DE = 4.47
</span>
find the distance DE
d=√[(4-0)²+(4-2)²]--------> d=√[16+4]-----> d=√20-----> d=4.47
DE=4.47
so
Line 4------> is correct

<span>Line 5 segment AB is congruent with segment DE
AB is not congruent with DE
so
Line 5 is not correct

therefore

the answer is
</span><span>the student make the first mistake in line 5</span><span>

</span>
