Answer:

x = 3, y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Elimination method to find x:

  (7x + 3y = 30) * -1      ===>                              -7x - 3y = -30

                                                                          -2x + 3y = 3                    

  add two equations to eliminate y             ______________

                                                                                 -9x = -27     ===>   x = 3

substitution to find y:  

  -2x + 3y = 3

  -2(3) + 3y = 3

  -6 + 3y = 3

  3y = 9

    y = 3

Elimination method to find y:

  (7x + 3y = 30) * 2         ===>                           14x + 6y = 60

  (-2x + 3y = 3)  * 7         ===>                         -14x + 21y = 21

  add two equations to eliminate x             ______________

                                                                              27y = 81      ===>   y = 3

Black_prince [1.1K]
Use PEMDAS:

[(30+6) -3^2] / 9* 2
= (36 -9)/ 9* 2
= 27/9* 2
= 3*2
= 6

The final answer is 6~

Thesumoftwopositivenumbersis16.whatisthesmallest possible value of the sum of their squares?
anygoal [31]
X+y=16
the sum of the squares is
x^2+y^2=sum

solve for y in first equation
x+y=16
y=16-x
subsitiute that for y in other equation

x^2+(16-x)^2=sum
x^2+x^2-32x+256=sum
2x^2-32x+256=sum
take derivitive to find the minimum value (or just find the vertex because the parabola opens up)
derivitive is
4x-32=derivitve of sum
the max/min is where the derivitive equals 0
4x-32=0
4x=32
x=8

at x=8
so then y=16-8=8

the smallest value then is 8^2+8^2=64+64=128
