Answer:

  (x, y) = (-1, 5/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The only variable with a coefficient that has a magnitude of 1 is x in the first equation. Using that equation, we can write an expression for x:

  x = 2y -6

This can be substituted for x in the second equation.

  (7/2)(2y -6) +7y = 14

  7y -21 +7y = 14 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  14y = 35 . . . . . . . . . . . add 21

  y = 35/14 = 5/2 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

  x = 2(5/2) -6 = -1

The solution is (x, y) = (-1, 5/2).

Rhys will tile the rectangle below to find it’s area. Q: How many unit squares with side length 1/10 foot will Rhys use to tile
Inessa [10]

The number of unit squares with a side length  of 1/10 foot that Rhys uses to tile the rectangle is 24 units

<h3>How to calculate the area of plane shapes?</h3>

A square is a plane shape with 4 sides

The formula for calculating the area of the square is expressed as:

A = l^2

Given

side length of a square = 1/10 foot

A = (1/10)² = 1/100 = 0.01 square foot

<u>Determine the area of the rectangle</u>

Area = length * width

Area = 3/10 * 4/5
Area = 12/50 = 6/25
Area = 0.24 square foot

<u>Take the ratio of both areas</u>

Ratio = 0.24/0.01

Ratio = 24 units

Hence the number of unit squares with a side length  of 1/10 foot that Rhys uses to tile the rectangle is 24 units

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-5,5)and has a slope of -1
erastova [34]

Answer:

<h2>           y = - x  </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation is y - y₀ = m(x - x₀), where (x₀, y₀) is any point the line passes through and m is the slope:

m = -1

(-5, 5)    ⇒   x₀ = -5,  y₀ = 5

The point-slope form of the equation:

y - 5 = -1(x + 5)

So:

y - 5 = -x - 5         {add 5 to both sides}

y = -x             ←  the slope-intercept form of the equation
