Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

From the Trapezoid attached :

EF = GT

FG = LA

LE = AT = 10

LA = 24 ; FG = 24

FG + EF + GT = 40

Let : EF and GT = x

FG + 2x = 40

24 + 2x = 40

2x = 40 - 24

2x = 16

x = 16 ÷ 2 = 8

Hence, EF = GT = 8

Using Pythagoras :

Opposite² = hypotenus² - Adjacent²

LF² = LE² - FE²

LF² = 10² - 8²

LF² = 100 - 64

LF² = 36

LF = √36

LF = 6

The scneario here expressed is an aritmetic sequence because it can be explained like this: 

<span><span><span>a1</span>=35
</span><span><span>an</span>=<span>a<span>n−1</span></span>+<span>17

So all the variables can fit in and will be better explained than a geometric sequence in which you need a common ratio and that is not needed in this case</span></span></span>

Solve the system of equations. 8x – 3y = 1 –2x + 3y = 11 A. (–1, –3) B. (–1, 3) C. (2, 5) D. (5, 2)
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

C. (2, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the answer choices, you can see that solving for y will tell you which choice is correct. We can eliminate x from the equations by adding 4 times the second equation to the first:

(8x -3y) +4(-2x +3y) = (1) +4(11) . . . . . adding the equations to eliminate x

9y = 45 . . . simplified; next we divide by 9

y = 5 . . . . . matches choice C

_____

Check

8(2) -3(5) = 16 -15 = 1

-2(2) +3(5) = -4 +15 = 11 . . . . the answer checks OK in both equations
