There are 3 methods to solve this. elimination substitution and graphing but i am going to use the elimination method.
x+2y=17
<u> x-y =2
</u> 0+3y =15 ( subtracted down to eliminate the x)( x-x=0, 2y-(-y)=3y, and 17-2=15)
3y=15 (divide both sides by 3 to solve for y)
y=5
<u>substitute the y=5 in any of the above equations and solve for x
ie... ( </u>meaning where you find y in the equation, u replace it with a 5)
it will be easier to solve for x in (x-y=2) so i will use that one.
x-(5)=2 ( add 5 on both sides to solve for x)
x=7
5(Less than sign) 2X(less than sign)3X+7
I think this is it?
Answer:
<h2>25 1/6 square yards</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
I am assuming you mean the area of the shaded figure.
So, let's do it this way.
Let's subtract the total area from the unshaded area:
7 1/4 x 6 = 43 1/2
Area of non-shaded = 18 1/3
Area of shaded = 43 1/2 - 18 1/3 = 25 1/6
