Ur gonna have to pick an equation and solve for a variable.
2x - 2y = 6
2x = 2y + 6 ...divide everything by 2 because u want x by itself
x = y + 3
now we sub y + 3 in for x in the other equation
14x - 2y = 78
14(y + 3) - 2y = 78...distribute thru the parenthesis
14y + 42 - 2y = 78...subtract 42 from both sides, cancelling the 42 on the left
-42 -42
-----------------------
14y - 2y = 36 ...simplify
12y = 36...divide by 12 on both sides, cancelling out the 12 on the left
y = 36/12
y = 3
now , we already know that x = y + 3...and we know y = 3...so sub in 3 for y and solve for x
x = y + 3
x = 3 + 3
x = 6
solution is (6,3)
it is always a good idea to check ur answer by subbing it into one or both of the equations to see if it is correct
2x - 2y = 6......(6,3)...x = 6 and y = 3
2(6) - 2(3) = 6
12 - 6 = 6
6 = 6 (correct)
so yes, ur solution is (6,3)
<span>2/3 (x-7)= -2
x - 7 = -2 * 3/2
x - 7 = -3
x = -3 + 7
x = 4</span>
B. Lost 850 ft
800-450= 350
1200-350=850
I hope I helped :D
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the far side original length and dilated length 3/9 divide it = 1/3 and that’s the answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7) The formula for determining the area of a parallelogram is expressed as
Area = base × height.
Length of base = Area/height
Therefore,
Length of base = 7/2 = 3.5 feet
8) The formula for determining the area of a trapezoid is expressed as
Area = 1/2(a + b)h
Where
a and b are the length of the bases
h is the height. Therefore
21 = 1/2(2 + 4)h
21 = 3h
h = 21/3 = 7 inches
9) Area = base × height.
Height = Area/Length of base
Height = 28/14 = 2 inches
10) a and b are 10 inches each.
Area = 1/2(a + b)h
Therefore,
35 = 1/2(10 + 10)h
35 = 10h
h = 35/10
h = 3 inches
