Answer:

<h2>y = 2.8</h2><h2>x = 14</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve an equation, we can only have one variable. In this case, we are given the system 2x = 5y + 14. However, we are given the value of x in terms of y. We can substitute 10y in for 2x and solve.

10y = 5y + 14

First, we need to get all the variables on one side of the equation, so we subtract 5y.

5y = 14

Divide by 5

y = 14/5 or 2 4/5 or 2.8

Now for the x part.

2x = x + 14

Subtract 1x

x = 14

Now we check our answer.

2(14) = 5(2.8) + 14

28 = 14 + 14

28 = 28

Because 28 equals 28, our solutions are correct.

Write and solve a proportion to find the height of the building.
slavikrds [6]

Write and solve an equation of ratios:


9 ft          22 ft

------- = -----------

h               99 ft


This is appropriate because h is greater than 9 ft.


cross-multiplying, we get 

9(99) ft^2 = 22*h*ft


Then h =40.5 ft (which is the height of the building)
