Step-by-step explanation:

y =-5

5x-6y=40

5x-6(-5)=40

5x+30=40

5x=40-30

x=10/5

x=2

Answer:

The value of x is 2 and y is -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, y = - 5 and 5x - 6y = 40 are two given equations.

<u>Substitution Method</u><u>:</u>

y = - 5 ...(1)

5x - 6y = 40 ...(2)

Now, put the value of y = - 5 in equation (2) we get,

5x - 6y = 40

5x - 6(-5) = 40

5x - (-30) = 40

5x + 30 = 40

Now, Subtract 30 from both side

5x + 30 - 30 = 40 - 30

5x = 10

Now, Divide by 5 from both side

5x ÷ 5 = 10 ÷ 5

x = 2

Thus, The value of x is 2 and y is -5

<h3><u>FOR</u><u> </u><u>VERIFICATION</u><u> </u><u>ONLY:</u></h3>

5x - 6y = 40

5(2) - 6(-5) = 40

10 - (-30) = 40

10 + 30 = 40

40 = 40

Hence, L.H.S = R.H.S

I need to find the value of x
Zanzabum
Hello, 

We know that all the angles shown add up to 360 (think of a circle).

We also know that the angle of (6x-1)° is congruent to the angle opposite of it. (the "top left" angle) = 6x - 1°

We also know that the angle of (7x-1)° is congruent to the angle opposite of it. 
(the "bottom left" angle) = 7x -1°

Knowing the sum of all angles as well as the angle measures in terms of x, we can add all the angle measures and equal it to 360.

So, we get (7x - 1) + (7x - 1) + (6x - 1) + (6x - 1) = 360
Simplify and we get:
26x - 4 = 360
Add 4 to both sides to get 26x = 364 
Divide by 26 on both sides to get 14.

x = 14

Hope this helps!

Question 5^ Need help ... ASAP ... your help is really appreciated ...
goblinko [34]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

I think we had a question similar to this before. Again, let's figure out the vertical and horizontal distances figured out. The distance from C at x=8 to D at x=-5 is 13 units while the distance from C at y=-2 to D at y=9 is 11 units. (8+5=13 and 2+9=11, even though some numbers are negative, we're looking at their value in those calculations)

Next, we have to divide each distance by 4 so we can apply it to the ratio. 13/4=\frac{13}{4} and 11/4=\frac{11}{4}. Next, we need to read the question carefully. It's asking us to place the point in the ratio <em>3</em> to <em>1</em> from <em>C</em> to <em>D</em>. The point has to be closer to endpoint D because of this. Let's take each of our fractions, multiply them by 3, then add them towards the direction of endpoint D to get our answer (sorry if that sounds confusing):

\frac{13}{4}*3 = \frac{39}{4}\\ 8-\frac{39}{4} =  \frac{-7}{4}\\\frac{11}{4}*3 = \frac{33}{4}  \\-2+\frac{33}{4} = \frac{25}{4}

Therefore, our point that partitions CD into a 3:1 ratio is (\frac{-7}{4}, \frac{25}{4}).

I'm not sure if there was more to #5 judging by how part B was cut off. From what I can understand of part B, however, I believe that Beatriz started from endpoint D and moved towards C, the wrong direction. She found the coordinates for a 1:3 ratio point.

Also, for #6, since a square is a 2-dimensional object, the answer needs to be written showing that. The answer for #6 is 9 units^2.
