-6x-14y=16 and -2x+7y=17 solve by elimination show the work

Mathematics
1 answer:
professor190 [17]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

(- 5, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

- 6x - 14y = 16 → (1)

- 2x + 7y = 17 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by - 3 and adding to (1) will eliminate the x- term

6x - 21y = - 51 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate x

0 - 35y = - 35

- 35y = - 35 ( divide both sides by - 35 )

y = 1

Substitute y = 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

- 6x - 14(1) = 16

- 6x - 14 = 16 ( add 14 to both sides )

- 6x = 30 ( divide both sides by - 6 )

x = - 5

solution is (- 5, 1 )

Are triangles PRU and STQ congruent?
san4es73 [151]

No, triangles PRU and STQ are not congruent. Even though their angles are the same, different triangles can be constructed out of triangles with the same angles. Looking at the picture, one can also see the difference in size between the two triangles.
