Answer:
{y,x} = {7,-1}
Step-by-step explanation:
(-7x) + 3x = 4
- 4x = 4
4x = - 4
x = - 1
y = -7x
x = -1
y = -7(-1) = 7
5x - 3y = 11 ⇒ 5x - 3y = 11 ⇒ 5x - 3y = 11
x - 2y = 2 ⇒ -5(x - 3y) = 2 ⇒ <u>-5x + 15y = 2</u>
<u>12y</u> = <u>13</u>
12 12
y = 1 1/12
5x - 3(1 1/12) = 11
5x - 3 1/4 = 11
<u> +3 1/4 +3 1/4</u>
<u> 5x</u> = <u>14 1/4</u>
5 5
x = 2 17/20
(x, y) = (2 17/20, 1 1/12)
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
can also be written as 
. Evaluating this gives 
= 
= 
Okay so 11/4 needs to be multiplied by 2 so that the D match up.
so 11/4 x 2 = 22/8
22/8 - 3/8 = 19/8
The difference is 19/8
Length (L): w + 3 ⇒2(w + 3)
width (w): w ⇒ w - 1
Area (A) = L x w
A = (w + 3)(w)
A = w² + 3w
*******************************************
A + 176 = 2(w + 3)(w - 1)
(w² + 3w) + 176 = 2(w + 3)(w - 1)
w² + 3w + 176 = 2w² + 4w - 6
3w + 176 = w² + 4w - 6
176 = w² + w - 6
0 = w² + w - 182
0 = (w - 13) (w + 14)
0 = w - 13 0 = w + 14
w = 13 w = -14
Since width cannot be negative, disregard -14
w = 13
Length (L): w + 3 = (13) + 3 = 16
Answer: width = 13 in, length = 16 in
