2x + 3y = 6
2x + y = -2

Solve the second equation for y and substitute into the first equation

2x + y = -2
y = -2x - 2

2x + 3y = 6
2x + 3(-2x - 2) = 6
2x - 6x - 6 = 6
-4x - 6 = 6
-4x = 12
x = -3

Plug back in to solve for y
2x + y = -2
2(-3) + y = -2
-6 + y = -2
y = 4

Plug into other equation to check
2x + 3y = 6
2(-3) + 3(4) = 6
-6 + 12 = 6
6 = 6 :)

{x{ x + 4<0 or 6x>-12)
lora16 [44]

Answer:

x\in (-\infty , -4) \cup (-2,+\infty)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the system of inequalities:

x + 4 < 0

OR:

6x > -12

The first inequality yields the solution:

x < -4

The second inequality gives the solution:

x > -2

The total solution is the disjunction of the individual solutions, i.e., the union of both.

It can be expressed as

\mathbf{x\in (-\infty , -4) \cup (-2,+\infty)}

spayn [35]
The area doesn't tell you the dimensions. There are an infinite number of different answers, all with the same area but different dimensions.
Here are a few:
1 ft by 864 ft
2 ft by 432 ft
3 ft by 288 ft
4 ft by 216 ft
8 ft by 108 ft
16 ft by 54 ft
24 ft by 36 ft
27 ft by 32 ft.

The area of each of these is 864 square feet.

A general contractor is constructing a building that requires a concrete foundation that is to be 20 feet by 12 feet and 4 inche
ikadub [295]

First we calculate the volume of the foundation:

Volume (V) = 20 ft * 12 ft * 4 in (1 ft / 12 in)

V = 80 ft^3

 

Since the cost is in cubic yard (yard^3) so convert:

V = 80 ft^3 * (1 yard^3 / 27 ft^3) = 2.963 yard^3

 

So the total cost is:

cost = ($125 / yard^3) * 2.963 yard^3

<span>cost = $370.37</span>
