Answer:
x = 5, y = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
3.5x - 5y = 20
3x + 4y = 13 multiply by 1.25 so the y's match up (you could match x's too)
3.75x + 5y = 16.25
–––––––––––––––––––––––
3.5x - 5y = 20
3.75x +5y = 16.25
7.25x + 0y = 36.25 you can add or subtract here (on this equation you add)
7.25x=36.25
x=5 So now we have x=5 and to find y we can just plug in x into one of the equations
–––––––––––––––––––
3(5) + 4y = 13
15 + 4y = 13
4y = -2
y = -1/2
x = 5, y = -1/2
Then you can plug in both to check your answers.
Part A: slope is 40
And i don’t know the rest I’m sorry
If length AM = AK then it is isosceles.
M(-1,-6), A(-4,5)
AM=((5-(-6))²+(-4-(-1)))^(1/2)=11.401
A(-4,5) and K(5,-2)
AK=((-2-5)²+(5+4)²)^(1/2)=11.401
so the triangle is isosceles.
Amy = x
Betty = y
Carl = z
x + y = 29
x + z = 27
y + z = 22
y = 29 - x
z = 27 - x
29 - x + 27 - x = 22
-2x + 56 = 22
-2x = - 34
x = 17
y = 12
z = 10
Oldest child is Amy (17) and youngest child is Carl (10)
17 - 10 = 7
The difference between oldest child and youngest child is 7 years.
