Given :

Two equations :

-8x + 3y = -17 ....1)

3x - y = 7 ....2)

To Find :

The solution of the system.

Solution :

Multiplying equation 2) by 3 and adding with equation 1), we get :

(-8x + 3y) + 3(3x - y) = -17 + 21

x = 4

Putting above value of x equation 2) we get :

12 - y = 7

y = 5

Therefore, solution of system is ( 4,5 ).

Which number is equivalent to 2^−5⋅ 3 ⋅ 2^2 ⋅ 3^3? A. 648 B. 216 C. 81/8 D. 27/8

sesenic [268]

$2^{-5} \cdot 3 \cdot 2^2 \cdot 3^3\\\\=2^{-5 +2} \cdot 3^{1+3}\\\\=2^{-3} \cdot 3^4\\\\=\dfrac{3^4}{2^3}\\\\=\dfrac{81}{8}\\\\\\\text{So, the answer is C.}$

If AD is the altitude of BC, what is the slope of AD?

koban [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the slope of BC :

⇒ m (BC) = -1 - 5 / -3 - 5

⇒ m (BC) = -6/-8

⇒ m (BC) = 3/4

Now, since AD is the altitude of BC, we can say the altitude is perpendicular to BC.

Hence, the slope of a perpendicular line is equal to the negative reciprocal of the original line.

⇒ m (AD) = - (1/m(BC))

⇒ m (AD) = - (1/(3/4))

⇒ m (AD) = -4/3
