The answer rewritten is z^2/25
Answer:
The answer is -256.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to substitute the value of b and c into the expression :

Let b = 8,
Let c = -4,



Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
x² + 12² = 13², so
x² + 144 = 169 ( subtract 144 from both sides )
x² = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )
x =
= 5
Multiply the first equation by 2 to then use elimination by adding the 2 equations.
So, 14x-2y=14
+. x+2y=6
Equals 15x=20 so x=20/15=4/3
Plug in to first equation to get y
7(4/3)-y=7
28/3-y=7
28/3-y=21/3
So y=7/3
Plug both x and y into second equation to check
4/3+2(7/3)=
4/3+14/3=18/3=6 it works
So x=4/3, y=7/3
Hope this helps! Have a blessed day!
