Answer:

x=4, y=-11. (4, -11).

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+2y=-10

5x+y=9

--------------

3x+2y=-10

-2(5x+y)=-2(9)

--------------------

3x+2y=-10

-10x-2y=-18

-----------------

-7x=-28

7x=28

x=28/7=4

5(4)+y=9

20+y=9

y=9-20=-11

If Holly gets 14 % off a shirt , what percent of the original price will still pay

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Holly will still pay 86% of the original price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Holly gets 14% off a shirt, so

Discount = 14%

To determine

What percent of the original price will still pay.

All we need is to subtract the percentage of discount from 100.

i.e.

100 - Discount = 100 - 14 = 86%

The amount left over would be what remains of the original price after Holly gets 14 % off a shirt.

Thus, Holly will still pay 86% of the original price.

Find all points on the x-axis that are 14 units from the point (6,-7) All points on the x-axis that are 14 units from the point

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer: $(6+7\sqrt{3},0)\text{ and }(6-7\sqrt{3},0)$ are the required points.

or (18.124,0) and ( -6.124,0) are the required points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (x,0) be the point on x -axis that are 14 units from the point (6,-7) .

Then by distance formula , we have

$\sqrt{(x-6)^2+(0-(-7))^2}=14\ \ \ [\ \because distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}]$

Taking square on both the sides , we get

$(x-6)^2+7^2=14^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2+6^2-2(6)x+49=196\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2+36-12x=147\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2-12x=111\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2-12x-111=0$

Using quadratic formula : $x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$x=\dfrac{12\pm\sqrt{(-12)^2-4(1)(-111)}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{12\pm\sqrt{144+444}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{12\pm\sqrt{588}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{12\pm\sqrt{2^2\times7^2\times3}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{12\pm14\sqrt{3}}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=6\pm7\sqrt{3}$

so, $(6+7\sqrt{3},0)\text{ and }(6-7\sqrt{3},0)$ are the required points.

since $\sqrt{3}=1.732$

so, $(6+7(1.732),0)\text{ and }(6-7(1.732),0)$ are the required points.

i.e. (18.124,0) and ( -6.124,0) are the required points.
