Step-by-step explanation:
-9x-4y=1....eq1
3x+3y=3.....eq2
multiply eq2 by 3
to get
9x+9y=9....eq3
add eq1 and 3
0+5y=10
5y=10
divide both sides by 5
y=2
substitute y=2 in to eq1
-9x-4(2)=1
-9x-8=1
grouping of like terms
-9x=1+8
-9x=9
divide both sides by -9
x= -1
now the answer is
x= -1, y=2
Cosα=x/L
L=x/cosα, we are told that the ladder base is 48 ft from the base of the wall and α=39° so:
L=48/cos39 ft
L≈61.76 ft (to nearest hundredth of a foot)
Answer: A cos (π/4)
I just took a test with this question and got it right
Well first lets find the ROC (rate of change) in the sets of data.
1990 -> 134
2000 -> 139
so lets find the difference from the years given
2000-1990=10 so there is a 10 year gab
139-134=5 so there is a 5 million increase in the population
so divide 10 by 5 which gives us 2, so every year there is a 2 million increase in the population. so from 2000 to 2014 there is 14 years, so
14 x 2= 28, then add that to the latest population data
139+28=167
so the population in 2014 would be 167 million
Hope this helped!!
