Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(1) 2x - 6y = -12
(2) x + 2y = 14
There is a -6y and a +2y. Since they have opposite signs, I'll try to eliminate the y terms. (That's my choice. There is more than one way to solve these.)
Multiply eq. (2) by 3:
3x + 6y = 42
Then add the result to eq. (1) to eliminate the y terms:
2x - 6y = -12
3x + 6y = 42
------------------
5x = 30, so x = 6
Now plug the value of x into eq. (2) and solve for y:
6 + 2y = 14
2y = 8
y = 4
Why did I use eq. (2) to solve for y? Because it's less work. I could have used eq. (1) instead:
2(6) - 6y = -12
12 - 6y = -12
-6y = -24
y = 4
More than one way to solve.
Answer:
The coordinates of the end point B are (14 , 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
let B(x , y)
M midpoint of A and B
⇔ 8=(x+2)/2 and 11=(y+14)/2
⇔ 16=x+2 and 22=y+14
⇔ x=14 and y=8
I truly don’t know the answer but i think it is 837 feet
Answer:
17.5 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given
The perimeter of a rectangle is 53 inches
let the two shorter sides be the width w
so w+w= 18in
the two longer sides is L
L+L=2l
Step two:
but the expression for the perimeter of a rectangle is
P=2W+2L
53= 18+2L
53-18=2L
35=2L
divide both sides by 1
L=35/2
L=17.5
