Answer:
72 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
you'll have to trust me ;)
It’s c) but my answer has to me 20 things long so yah
4x - 3y = 8 ⇒ 8x - 6y = 16
5x - 2y = -11 ⇒ 15x - 6y = -33
-7x = 49
-7 -7
x = -7
4x - 3y = 8
4(-7) - 3y = 8
-28 - 3y = 8
+ 28 + 28
-3y = 36
-3 -3
y = -12
(x, y) = (-7, -12)
To use elimination you have to multiply the first graph by 2 and the second graph by 3 so that the two y-axis can be equal to -6. Then you do the rest to find the answer of the x-axis and the y-axis.
Answer:
The numbers are 23 and 7
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Set up the equations
Let x = the greater number
and y = the smaller number. Then
(1) x - y = 16
4y = 4 times the smaller number and
4y - 5 = 5 less than 4 times the smaller number. Then
(2) x = 4y - 5
You have a system of two equations:

2. Solve the equations

The larger number is 23; the smaller number is 7.
3. Check

OK.
