Answer:
one solution
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets start to solve the question
- The 1st equation x - y = -4
- The 2nd equation 3x + y = 8
- We will use the elimination method to solve this system of equation
∵ x - y = -4 ⇒ (1)
∵ 3x + y = 8 ⇒ (2)
- Add the two equation (1) and (2) to eliminate y
∴ x + 3x = -4 + 8
∴ 4x = 4
- Divide both sides by 4
∴ x = 1
- Substitute the value of x in equation (1) or equation (2) to find
the value of y
- We will use equation (1)
∴ 1 - y = -4
Subtract 1 from both sides
∴ -y = -5
- Divide both sides by -1
∴ y = 5
∴ The solution is (1 , 5)
* The system has one solution
I have attached an image explaining how to solve this problem.
(“m” means slope)
If we say that side "a" is the shortest (adjacent), side "b" is the second shortest (opposite), and side "c" is the longest (hypotenuse): then angle A would be 30°, angle B would be 60°, and angle C would be 90°
tan B = b/a
or
a tan B = b
they have 4 as the smallest value in all four options, so we know that
a=44 tan 60° = b
tan 60° = √3
so, 4 tan 60° = 4√3
b=4√3that leaves two options left, so now we find "c":
c^2 = (a^2) + (b^2)
OR



so
a=4, b=4√3, and c=8
Making your answer
B
We know that the perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l + w)
l = length
w = width
In our problem,
l = 5x
w = 5x - 4
Let's create an inequality to help us solve this problem.
2(5x + (5x - 4)) ≥ 96
Let's start off by simplifying the terms inside the parentheses.
2(10x - 4) ≥ 96
Distribute the 2
20x - 8 ≥ 96
Add 8 to both sides.
20x ≥ 104
Divide both sides by 20
x ≥ 5.2
Let's plug 5.2 into x for our length and width.
Length = 5x = 5(5.2) = 26 cm
Width = 5x - 4 = 5(5.2) - 4 = 26 - 4 = 22 cm
The smallest possible dimensions for the rectangle are, length = 26 cm and width = 22 cm
