Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x*y = 490

x + y = 49

x = 49 - y

y*(49 - y ) = 490

49y - y^2 = 490

0 = y^2 - 49y + 490

This does factor (oddly). It doesn't look like it, but it does.

(y - 35) (y - 14) = 0

y - 35 = 0

y = 35

y - 14 = 0

y = 14

x = 49 - y

Let y = 14

x = 49 - 14

x = 35

x = 49 - y

let y = 35

x = 49 - 35

y = 14

Solutions

(35,14)

(14,35) Both solutions are valid.

Consider the contrapositive of the statement you want to prove.

The contrapositive of the logical statement

p ⇒ q

¬q ⇒ ¬p

In this case, the contrapositive claims that

"If there are no scalars α and β such that c = αa + βb, then a₁b₂ - a₂b₁ = 0."

The first equation is captured by a system of linear equations,

$\begin{cases}c_1 = \alpha a_1 + \beta b_1\\ c_2 = \alpha a_2 + \beta b_2\end{cases}$

or in matrix form,

$\begin{pmatrix}c_1\\c_2\end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix}a_1&b_1\\a_2&b_2\end{pmatrix}\begin{pmatrix}\alpha\\\beta\end{pmatrix}$

If this system has no solution, then the coefficient matrix on the right side must be singular and its determinant would be

$\begin{vmatrix}a_1&b_1\\a_2&b_2\end{vmatrix} = a_1b_2-a_2b_1 = 0$

and this is what we wanted to prove. QED

I need help with this question i dont understand it

The perimeter, by definition, is the outside measure of that figure. MN and LM are the same length and LK and NK are the same length....we just need to find the lengths! Use the distance formula to find the distance between the 2 points:
$\sqrt{( x_{2} - x_{1} ) ^{2} +( y_{2}- y_{1} ) ^{2} }$
For the segment MN, use the coordinates of M as your x1, y1, and use the coordinates of N for x2, y2:
$\sqrt{(3-2) ^{2}+(4-3) ^{2} }$
which simplifies to
$\sqrt{(1 )^{2}+(1) ^{2} }$ which is $\sqrt{2}$
So that is the length of both MN and LM. So far our perimeter is $\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{2}=2 \sqrt{2}$
Now let's use the same formula to find out the length of one of the longer segments:
$\sqrt{(5-3) ^{2} +(3-2) ^{2} }$
which simplifies down to
$\sqrt{(2) ^{2} +(1) ^{2} }$
which is of course $\sqrt{5}$
Since we have 2 of those lengths, $\sqrt{5} + \sqrt{5}=2 \sqrt{5}$
So our perimeter is, in the end, $2 \sqrt{2}+2 \sqrt{5}$
That's the third choice down
