Division and subtraction because the quotient is the result of a division and 'less than is a subtraction.
-2a from both sides then divide by -5 and a=1
A dependent variable depends on an independent variable
Multiply the first equation by -2. It turns into 4x+18y=50 and the other one stays -4x-9y=-23. Then you "eliminate" the equations by "adding" them. Set it up like this:
4x+18y=50
+
-4x-9y=-23
4x-4x= 0. 18y-9y= 9y and 50-23= 27
SO: 9y= 27 and y= 3
And then you plug that in to one equation: 4x +18(3)= 50. 4x= 50-(18*3)
4x= -4, so x=-1.
Plug it back in to check!
Hope this helps. Happy solving! :)
This question is simple I'm a little confused on the specifics so I will try my best to help.
s=θ(r)
arc length = angle x radius
2.46888m(or 8.1 ft) = (π/3) x r
