Answer:
x = 4 , y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 2y = 14 → (1)
x + y = 5 → (2)
Multiplying (2) by - 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term
- 2x - 2y = - 10 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y
x = 4
Substitute x = 4 into (2) and evaluate for y
4 + y = 5 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
y = 1
For this type of problem you would have to move the decimal as many places to the right as needed to make the divisor a whole number the you would move the dividend the same amount of times even if it is a whole number . Then you use what you have to divide normally. Hope this helps!
We have a + b = 180 and a = 12 + b;
Then, 12 + b + b = 180;
12 + 2b = 180;
2b = 168;
b = 84;
a = 12 + 84;
a = 96;
<span>We let x be the length and y be the width of the rectangle. Then,
Perimeter = 2x + 2y
100 = 2x + 2y
50 = x + y
y = 50 - x
Area = xy
A = x(50 - x)
A = 50x - x^2
We then take the derivative; set it equal to zero:
A ' = 50 - 2x
0 = 50 - 2x
2x = 50
x = 25
y = 50 - x
y = 50 - 25
y = 25
Therefore, the dimensions are 25 and 25.</span>
Your answer should be C. 3x^3√2
