Answer:

(-2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 5y = 7

3x - 2y = -12

Let's solve this by elimination. We want to eliminate one variable at a time. This means we need to multiply the equations to create a common multiple to cancel out a variable.

Let's work with y.

5y and -2y: For these values to cancel out, we need to multiply each term to create a common multiple.

2(4x + 5y = 7)

5(3x - 2y = -12)

Multiply.

8x + 10y = 14

15x - 10y = -60

Eliminate.

23x = -46

Divide both sides by 23.

x = -2

Now that we know x, let's plug it back into one of equations to find y.

4x + 5y = 7

4(-2) + 5y = 7

Multiply.

-8 + 5y = 7

Add.

5y = 15

Divide.

y = 3

Now we know x and y; let's plug both back into the equation we have not checked yet.

3x - 2y = -12

3(-2) - 2(3) = -12

Multiply.

-6 - 6 = -12

Subtract.

-12 = -12

Your solution is correct.

(-2, 3)

Hope this helps!

Prove that<br>{(tanθ+sinθ)^2-(tanθ-sinθ)^2}^2 =16(tanθ+sinθ)(tanθ-sinθ)

USPshnik [31]

First, expand the terms inside the bracket you will get

$(( \tan {}^{2} (x) + 2 \tan(x) \sin(x) + \sin {}^{2} (x) - ( \tan {}^{2} (x) - 2 \tan(x) + \sin {}^{2} (x) ) {}^{2} = 16( \tan(x) + \sin(x) )( \tan(x) - \sin(x) )$

$( 4 \tan(x) \sin(x) ) {}^{2} = 16( \tan(x) + \sin(x) )( \tan(x) - \sin(x) )$

$16 \tan {}^{2} (x) \sin {}^{2} (x) = 16( \tan(x) + \sin(x) )( \tan(x) - \sin(x) )$

$16 \tan {}^{2} (x) (1 - \cos {}^{2} (x) ) = 16 (\tan(x) + \sin(x) )( \tan(x) - \sin(x) )$

$16( \tan {}^{2} (x) - \frac{ \sin {}^{2} (x) \cos {}^{2} ( {x}^{} ) }{ \cos {}^{2} (x) }$

$16( \tan {}^{2} (x) - \sin {}^{2} (x) ) = 16( \tan(x) + \sin(x) )( \tan(x) - \sin(x) )$

$16( \tan(x) + \sin(x) )( \tan(x) - \sin(x) = 16( \tan(x) + \sin(x) )( \tan(x) - \sin(x) )$

Please help will give brain

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

Its 70 because you see the degree is 110 so try to subtract 180 degrees by 110 and you get 70 so it's the answer

PLEASE ANSWER CORRECTLY, I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST <3 THANKS IN ADVANCE!

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

1 : 15

2: 12

3: 52

4: 27.3

Step-by-step explanation:

For #1:

if line m and n are perpendicular then they will create right angles

Right angles have a measure of 90 degrees

That being said we can find the measure of the missing angle by subtracting the measure of the known angle (75) from 90

so k = 90 - 75

90 - 75 = 15

Hence k = 15.

For #3 ( very similar to #1, only difference is the values of the angles )

so R = 90 - 38

90 - 38 = 52

Hence, R = 52

For #2 and #4

Complementary angles have a sum of 90°

So like the previous questions we can find the measure of the missing angle by subtract the measure of the given angle from 90

∠V = 90 - 78

90 - 78 = 12

Hence ∠V = 12

∠Y = 90 - 62.7

90 - 62.7 = 27.3

Hence ∠Y = 27.3
