Since the second equation gives a value for a, we can substitute it into the other equation to find a value for B.

Let's substitute b-2 into the first equation wherever there is an a.

a - 3b = 4
(b-2) - 3b = 4
b - 2 - 3b = 4
-2 - 2b = 4
-2b = 6
b = -3

Now let's find a by substituting -3 into either of the equations to find the value of a.

a = b - 2
a = -3 - 2
a = -5

So your solution set  is (-5, -3)

A slide has a diagonal of 10 feet and covers a distance of 8 feet across the ground. How many feet high is the slide at its high
Tasya [4]

So, this creates a triangle once again. If we imagine a slide, the slide itself would be the hypotenuse of the triangle, then if there's a ladder leading up to the slide, that would be the vertical length we're looking for. The feet across the ground would be the distance from the bottom of the slide to the bottom of the ladder.

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing side length, as this would create a right triangle. | 8^2 + b^2 = 10^2 | 64 + b^2 = 100 | b^2 = 36 | b = 6 feet | The slide is 6 feet high at its highest point.

A swimming pool has a diameter of 24 feet. What is the minimum amount of fabric needed to cover the pool if the cover must hang
Alika [10]

Answer:

531.167 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Dimension of pool

Diameter =24ft

Radius =12ft

If the cover must hang by 1ft around, then the diameter is 26ft

Radius =13ft

Area of cover = πr²

Substitute

Area = 3.142*13²

Area =3.143*169

Area =531.167 ft²

Hence the minimum area is 531.167 ft²

Can somebody please help me out:))
jeyben [28]

Answer:

50ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

Considering that one side is equal to 38 degrees, we know this isn't a 30 - 60 - 90 triangle.

One of the legs is equal to 40 feet

So, tan(b) = 40/x

tan(38 degrees) is 0.78 round up to 0.8 (if that's what your teacher wants)

0.8 = 40/x

0.8x = 40

x = 50ft

I hope this helps
