Answer:
x = -4; y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 5y = 7
3x - y = -9
Rewrite top equation. Multiply both sides of bottom equation by -5. Add equations. This eliminates y, and we solve for x.
2x - 5y = 7
(+) -15x + 5y = 45
----------------------------
-13x = 52
Divide both sides by -13.
x = -4
Substitute -4 for x in the first original equation and solve for y.
2x - 5y = 7
2(-4) - 5y = 7
-8 - 5y = 7
-5y = 15
y = -3
Answer: x = -4; y = -3
-5 =
93/5 turned into a decimal is 18.6
If triangle abc is similar to def
That means all angles are the same and sides will be multiplied by some factor x. So AB(x)= DE
8x=24
Therefore x =3
Now BC=EF/x
BC=42/3
BC= 14
Answer:
ΔDEC/ΔRST is 13/3 it is c
Step-by-step explanation:
ΔRST/ΔDEC = 3/13 so the inverse is 13/3
Answer:
x = 4 ±√26
Step-by-step explanation:
Please write this as x^2 - 8x = 10, or x^2 - 8x - 10 = 0. " ^ " indicates exponentiation.
Let's complete the square:
x^2 - 8 x can be rewritten as
x^2 - 8x + 16 - 16, and so
x^2 - 8x = 10 becomes x^2 - 8x + 16 - 16 - 10 = 0, or
(x - 4)^2 = 26
Taking the square root of both sides, we get:
x - 4 = ±√26, or
x = 4 ±√26
