So elimination method is basically adding the equations and canceling out variables.
-6x + 6y = 6
-6x + 3y = -12
The eaiest way to solve is by multiplying the bottom equation by -1.
-6x + 6y = 6
6x - 3y = 12
Now you add the eqautions.
3y = 18
Divde 3 from both sides.
y = 6
Now plug in 6 into any of the original two equations. Lets use the first one.
-6x + 6(6) = 6
-6x + 36 = 6
Subtract 36 from both sides.
-6x = -30
Divide -6 from both sides.
x = 5
So your solution is (5, 6).
I hope this helps love! :)
Okay so 6.5% of $14.95 is 0.97175. That rounds to 0.97. And to get the total we just add 0.97 to 14.95. Our answer is 15.92. However if you don't want to round then you would add 14.95 and 0.97175 . This would give you15.92175. Hope this helps!
Answer:
6.1
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a trapezoid is given by
A = 1/2 (b1+b2) * h where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the bases
108.6 = 1/2 ( 12+p) *12
108.6 = 6 (12+p)
Divide each side by 6
108.6 /6 = 12+p
18.1 = 12+p
Subtract 12 from each side
18.1-12 = 12+p-12
6.1 = p
