Answer:

We have a + b as;

2 + 3 = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want go get the value of a and b

from the second equation, we can get an expression for b

We have this as;

7a - b = 11

Thus,

b = 7a - 11

Now, from here, we can substitute the value of b into the first equation

We have this as;

5a + 4(7a - 11) = 22

5a + 28a -44 = 22

33a = 22 + 44

33a = 66

a = 66/33

a = 2

Recall;

b = 7a - 11

substituting the value of a from above;

b = 7(2) - 11

b = 14 - 11

b = 3

To hang lights up on his house.Garrett place is a 14 foot ladder 4 feet from the base of the house. How high up the house will t
Mariulka [41]

This seems like a right triangle problem.

So assuming 14 feet is the hypotenuse and 4 feet is a leg of the right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorem (a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}) to solve for the height of the house, in which we shall name it x.

So, the equation is 4^{2} +x^{2} =14^{2}.

Solve for x:

16+x^{2}= 196

x^{2}= 196-16

x^{2}= 180

x = 6√5 feet


Hope this helps!
