Answer: (3,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
For this set of system of equations, let's use elimination method to find x and y. Let's eliminate y first. In order to do so, the y values have to be the same. Therefore, you multiply the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by 4.
9x+12y=51
-16x-12y=-72
Now, we can add the 2 equations together for the y to cancel out.
-7x=-21
x=3
Since we know x, we can plug it into any of the equations to find y.
3(3)+4y=17
9+4y=17
4y=8
y=2
With out x and y value, we can put them into an ordered pair. (3,2)
Answer:
Horizontal component = 9.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that the horizontal component is given by the cosine projection;

which in our case (using the fact that in each degree of angle one has 60 minutes of angle, and therefore 30 minutes of angles is the same as 0.5 degrees) becomes:

And rounding to the nearest tenth as requested, we have:

Divide the numerator with the denominator for each, and that's all really... Good luck!!
Answer: (x,y) = (6,2)
Step-by-step explanation: hope this helps!!!!!
1) Parallel lines have equal slopes.
We need to find the slope of the given line by solving for y.
5x - 15y = 30
-15y = -5x + 30
y = (1/3)x - 2
The slope of the given line is 1/3, so the slope of the parallel line is also 1/3.
2) Line 1 has slope 2/3.
Line 2 has slope 2/3.
3) Line 1 is a vertical line through x = 2. Line 2 is a horizontal line through y = -5. The lines are perpendicular.
4) The given line can is solved for y, so we can see its slope is -5/2. The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals. The perpendicular line has slope 2/5. We have point (5, 0) which is (x1, y1) in the slope-point formula.
y - 0 = (2/5)(x - 5)
y = 2/5 x - 2
5) The given equation has slope -3. To find the negative reciprocal, write the slope as a fraction, flip it, and change the sign.
Slope of perpendicular line is 1/3.
