Answer:
y is equal to -1
x is equal to 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing you would do is multiply the bottom equation by a negative 3. You will get - 6x - 9y = -15. Keep the top equation the same. Both of the 6x's cancel. You then get -11y = 11 so y is equal to negative 1.
Since you have Y, you can now plug that in to any equation to find the value of x. -6x - 2(-1) = 26. You're left with 4. Plug both of the values into each equation to double check.
For a question like this you need to find the surface area
The formula is :
b x w x h (base x width x height)
So you multiply 3 1/2 x 6 x 5 1/2 = 22.5

When two lines intersect to form a 90 degree angle, these lines are called perpendicular lines.
You can draw a right triangle with the informatio.
The vertical change in elevation (unknown) is the opposed leg to the angle 15°
The distance from the surveyor to the point vertically below the point on the mountain is the adjacent leg = 6 miles.
Then tan(15°) = x / 6 => x = 6tan(15) = 1.61 miles
Answer: 1.61 miles
