Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 2x -y = 1 -------1
3x - y = -6 ------2
Subtract eqn 2 from eqn 1
-x = 1--6 = 7
x = -7
Put x= -7 in eqn 1
2*-7-y = 1
-14-y = 1
- y = 15
y = -15
2) 4x +2y = 10------1
y = 4x + 2--------2
Put eqn 2 in eqn 1
4x + 2 ( 4x+ 2) = 10
4x + 8x + 4 = 10
12x = 6
x = 6/12 = 1/2
Put x = 1/2 in eqn 2
y = 4* 1/2 + 2= 2 + 2
= 4
3) 6x - y = 2------1
y = 3x + 4---------2
Put eqn 2 in eqn 1
6x - (3x +4) = 2
6x - 3x - 4 = 2
3x = 6
x = 2
y = 3*2 + 4 = 6 + 4
= 10
Answer:
C. -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes.
We know that line <em>m </em>is perpendicular to line <em>l. </em>
Line <em>l </em>has a slope of 2/3. To find the slope of line <em>m, </em>find the negative reciprocal of 2/3.
Negative: switch the sign
2/3 --> -2/3
Reciprocal: switch the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number)
-2/3 --> -3/2
Line <em>m</em> has a slope of -3/2 and C is correct.
Let's solve this problem step-by-step.
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
Let's first establish that triangle BCD is a right-angle triangle.
Therefore, we can use Pythagoras theorem to find BC and solve this problem. Pythagoras theorem is displayed below:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Where c = hypotenus of right-angle triangle
Where a and c = other two sides of triangle
Now we can solve the problem by substituting the values from the problem into the Pythagoras theorem as displayed below:
Let a = BC
b = DC = 24
c = DB = 26
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 24^2 = 26^2
a^2 = 26^2 - 24^2
a = square root of ( 26^2 - 24^2 )
a = square root of ( 676 - 576 )
a = square root of ( 100 )
a = 10
Therefore, as a = BC, BC = 10.
If we want to check our answer, we can substitute the value of ( a ) from our answer in conjunction with the values given in the problem into the Pythagoras theorem. If the left-hand side is equivalent to the right-hand side, then the answer must be correct as displayed below:
a = BC = 10
b = DC = 24
c = DB = 26
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
10^2 + 24^2 = 26^2
100 + 576 = 676
676 = 676
FINAL ANSWER:
Therefore, BC is equivalent to 10.

Answer:
y = 56
Step-by-step explanation:
the midsegment SV is half the length of the side TU , that is
y - 9 = 
(y + 38) ← multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction
2y - 18 = y + 38 ( subtract y from both sides )
y - 18 = 38 ( add 18 to both sides )
y = 56
