im sorry I don't know I didn't do stuff like this in school
Answer:
x=4, y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - y = 6
x + y = 6
Add these together to eliminate y
2x - y = 6
x + y = 6
-----------------
3x = 12
Divide by 3
3x/3 = 12/3
x=4
But we still need y
x+y =6
4+y =6
Subtract 4 from each side
4+y-4 = 6-4
y=2
Answer:
160
Step-by-step explanation:
96 / (100%-40%) = 96/ (60%)
= 96/0.6 = 160
Area of a triangle = 1/2 × base × height
Plug in what we know.
78 = 1/2 × b × 9¾
Multilply each side by 2 to get rid of the 1/2...
156 = b × 9¾
Write 9¾ as an improper fraction.
(9¾ = 9 + 3/4 = (9×4)/4 + 3/4 = 36/4 + 3/4 = 39/4)
156 = b × 39/4
Multiply each side by 4...
624 = b × 39
Divide each side by 39...
16 = b
Done! The length of the base of the triangle is <u>16</u> inches.
