Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Y=1/2y
-7x -7y = 21
Y = 6
Since they are giving you the value of 6 you just plug it in the equation
-7x - 7(6) = 21
-7x - 42 = 21
+ 42. +42
-7x = 63
/-7. /-7
X = -9
Answer:
a=-30
Step-by-step explanation:
Well the question doesnt show any number for a side or anything but we can solve this with algebra if we say that a side from one base to next has a length of x. so we know each side has length x and that the shape they make is square. This means we are only searching for the diagonal of a square.
remember that a diagonal forms and isoscoles right triangle with the 2 sides being equal and the diagonal as the hypotenuse. Using the pythagoream theorem we can say that
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
we said all side lengths are x so we can put x in for a and b and get
x^2 + x^2 = c^2
2x^2 = c^2
c = x * squareroot(2)
that is the basic fundamental answer that will always work when working with diagonals of squares.
so if the length between bases is 90 ft, we could plug this in and get
c = 90 ft * squareroot(2)
c = 127.28 ft
Answer:
$26.02
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the price of a skirt be A and that of coat be B
Iilly bought 6 skirts and 5 coats for a total of $452.62
That’s
6A + 5B = 452.62
Also, Lilly’s sister bought 3 skirts and 5 coats for $289.36
That’s
3A + 5B = 289.36
We now have two equations
1 . 6A + 5B = 452.62
2. 3A + 5B = 289.36
Subtract equation two from equation one
We have
3A = 163.26
Divide both sides by 3
3A/3 = 163.26/3
A = 54.42
A = $54.42
Now substitute 54.42 for A in either equations to get B the price of a coat
Using equation one, we have
6A + 5B = 452.62
6 x 54.42 + 5B = 456.62
326.52 + 5B = 456.62
Subtract 326.52 from both sides
326.52 - 326.52 + 5B = 456.62 - 326.52
5B = 130.1
Divide both sides by 5
5B/5 = 130.1/5
B = 26.02
= $26.02
A coat cost $26.02
