<h2>Answer:</h2>

We can solve this system by elimination to solve for y by multiplying the top equation by 4 and the bottom one by -5.

$4(5x + y = 2)\\-5(4x - 2y = 10)\\\\20x + 4y = 8\\-20x + 10y = -50\\\\14y = -42\\\\y = -3$

Now, with what we got for y, we plug it back into one of the original equations. I chose the top one.

$5x + 7 = 2\\\\5x = -5\\\\x = -1$

Now we have the solution of this system

The solution is <em>A. (-1, -3)</em>.

This right triangular prism has a base with an area of 15 square feet. The height of the prism is 7 feet. What is V, the volume

frez [133]

Answer:

$area = {15}^{2} \\ v = \: l \times b \times h \\ area = l \times b = \\ x \times x = {15}^{2} \\ volume = 15 \times h \\ = 15 \times 7 \\ = {105}^{3} feet$

Which equation is the inverse of 2(x - 2)^3=8(7+y)

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=2\pm\sqrt{28+4x}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2(x-2)^2=8(7+y)\\\\\text{exchange x to y, and vice versa:}\\\\2(y-2)^2=8(7+x)\\\\\text{solve for y:}\\\\2(y-2)^2=(8)(7)+(8)(x)\\\\2(y-2)^2=56+8x\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\(y-2)^2=28+4x\iff y-2=\pm\sqrt{28+4x}\qquad\text{add 2 to both sides}\\\\y=2\pm\sqrt{28+4x}$
