First get y by its self , then graph , find intersection point and plug in x and y to both equations, see if it makes sense , then the solution must be you intersection point
Surface area of the pyramid= 4*(area of the triangle) + area of the square
Area of the triangle = (1/2)*base*height=(1/2)*5*5= 25/2 in²
Area of the square = 5*5 =25 in²
Surface area of the pyramid = 4*(25/2) + 25=2*25 + 25=75 in²
Might have to experiment a bit to choose the right answer.
In A, the first term is 456 and the common difference is 10. Each time we have a new term, the next one is the same except that 10 is added.
Suppose n were 1000. Then we'd have 456 + (1000)(10) = 10456
In B, the first term is 5 and the common ratio is 3. From 5 we get 15 by mult. 5 by 3. Similarly, from 135 we get 405 by mult. 135 by 3. This is a geom. series with first term 5 and common ratio 3. a_n = a_0*(3)^(n-1).
So if n were to reach 1000, the 1000th term would be 5*3^999, which is a very large number, certainly more than the 10456 you'd reach in A, above.
Can you now examine C and D in the same manner, and then choose the greatest final value? Safe to continue using n = 1000.
Answer:
x= -4 and y= 27/6
Step-by-step explanation:
-(8x + 6y = -5) which converts to -8x -6y = 5
10x + 6y = -13
simplify from there
-8x + 10x = 2x ; -6y + 6y = 0 ; 5 - 13 = -8
soo, now you have
2x = -8
x = -4
then, plug in to find y
8(-4) + 6y = -5
-32 + 6y = -5 add 32 on both sides
6y = 27 divide both sides by 6
y= 27/6 or 4.5
