DochEvi [55]3 years ago

5x + 3y = 25 \\ 5x = 25 - 3y \\ x =  \frac{25 - 3y}{5}  \\ x =  \frac{25}{5} -  \frac{3y}{5}   \\ x = 5 -  \frac{3y}{5}  \\ 3x + 4y = 26 \\ 3 (5 - \frac{3y}{5} ) + 4y = 26 \\ 15  +  \frac{11y}{5}  = 26 \\  \frac{11y}{5}  = 26 - 15 \\  \frac{11y}{5}  = 11 \\  \frac{5}{11}  \times  \frac{11y}{5}  = 11 \times  \frac{5}{11}  \\ y = 5 \\ x = 5 -  \frac{3y}{5}  \\ x = 5 -  \frac{3(5)}{5}  \\ x = 2

Answer:

The area of the given polygon is:

  • <u>232 cm^2</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of the polygon in the picture, you can divide the polygon in three rectangles: a 3 cm by 14 cm, a 5 cm by 14 cm rectangle, and the last rectangle must have a base of 12 cm (20 cm - 3 cm - 5 cm), and a height of 10 cm (14 cm - 4 cm). We can calculate the area of the rectangles with the formula below:

  • Area of a rectangle = Base * height

Now, we're gonna replace the measurements in the formula.

<em>First rectangle:</em>

  • Area of a rectangle = 3 cm * 14 cm
  • <u>Area of a rectangle = 42 cm^2</u>

<em>Second rectangle:</em>

  • Area of a rectangle = 5 cm * 14 cm
  • <u>Area of a rectangle = 70 cm^2</u>

<em>Third rectangle:</em>

  • Area of a rectangle = 12 cm * 10 cm
  • <u>Area of a rectangle = 120 cm^2</u>

By last, we must add the area of the rectangles:

  • Area of the polygon = 42 cm^2 + 70 cm^2 + 120 cm^2
  • <u>Area of the polygon = 232 cm^2</u>

As you can see, <em><u>the area of the polygon in the picture is 232 cm^2</u></em>.

Tom has $10 that he wants to use to buy pens and pencils. However, he does not want to buy more pens than pencils. A pen costs $
Olin [163]
Number of pencils x

number of pens y

3x + y = 10
x ≤ y

Draw the line 3x + y = 10 .[it passes by (0,10) and (-10/3,0)

Draw the line y=x [it passes by (0,0), (1,1), (2,2) etc]

Then the solution is the points with integer x and y, that belong to the segment of the line 3x +y = 10 between the x-axis and the line y=x. Those points are (1,7) , (2,4), (3, 1).

suppose there are two types of tickets to a show advance and same day. Advance tickets cost $25 and same dayt costs $15 for one
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

Advanced tickets=30 Day =20

Step-by-step explanation:

Put them into equations:

x=advanced

y=day

x+y=50

25x+15y=1050

to make it simpler re-arrange x+y=50

x=50-y

Then substitute into 25x+15y=1050

25(50-y)+15y=1050

Expand

1250-25y+15y=1050

Rearrange

25y-15y=1250-1050

Work the above out

10y=200

y=20

and then

20+x=50

meaning....

x=30

showing Advanced tickets=30 Day =20

A pool measuring 8 meters by 26 meters is surrounded by a path of uniform​ width, as shown in the figure. If the area of the poo
Ainat [17]
Let the width path be x.
Length of the outer rectangle = 26 + 2x.
Width of the outer rectangle = 8 +2x.

Combined Area = (2x + 26)*(2x + 8) = 1008

2x*(2x + 8) + 26*(2x + 8 ) = 1008

4x² + 16x + 52x + 208 = 1008

4x² + 68x + 208 - 1008 = 0
4x² + 68x - 800 = 0.          Divide through by 4.
x²  + 17x - 200 = 0 . This is a quadratic equation.

Multiply first and last coefficients:  1*-200 = -200

We look for two numbers that multiply to give -200, and add to give +17

Those two numbers are 25 and -8.

Check:   25*-8 = -200         25 + -8 = 17

We replace the middle term of +17x in the quadratic expression with 25x -8x


 x² +17x - 200 = 0     

x² + 25x - 8x - 200 = 0     

x(x + 25) - 8(x + 25) = 0

(x+25)(x -8) = 0

x + 25 = 0    or   x - 8 = 0

x = 0 -25              x = 0 + 8

x = -25                    x = 8

The width of the path can not be negative.

The only valid solution is x = 8.

The width of the path is 8 meters.
