Answer:

<em>The values are a=6, b=8</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The following system of equations

ax - by = 4

bx - ay = 10

Has the solution x=2, y=1. Substituting:

2a - b = 4      [1]

2b - a = 10      [2]

Multiply [1] by 2:

4a - 2b = 8

Add with [2]:

3a = 18

a = 18/3 = 6

a = 6

From [1]:

2*6 - b = 4

b = 12 - 4

b = 8

The values are a=6, b=8

A triangular pane of glass has a height of 30 inches and an area of 270 square inches. what is the length of the base pane
Tems11 [23]
The equation for the area of a triangle is A= b*h /2. So, plug in your known variables, and you get 270in^2= b*30 /2. First you multiply by 2 to cancel out the division for 2, which gets you 540= b* 30. To get "b" by itself, divide both sides by 30, giving you <u>18=b</u>.

To check this, plug in your new known variable, as 270= 18* 30 /2. This will equal as 270=270, confirming 18in as the correct measurement.
