Answer:

x= $4\frac{2}{3}$

y= $17\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$5x-y=6\\-2x+y=8\\$

Simplify, find the x-value first:

$3x=14\\x=4\frac{2}{3}$

Substitute x-value into any equation (i did the second equation) and simplify:

$-2(4\frac{2}{3})+y=8\\ -9\frac{1}{3} +y=8\\$

$y=17\frac{1}{3}$

Dovator [93]

Because of the -2 at the end of the function, we know it is shifted down. The +1 means it is shifted left. The answer is the last graph (the one with a y-intercept of -1).

The perimeter of a rectangle is 53 inches. The combined length of the two shorter sides is 18 inches. What is the length of each

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

17.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

The perimeter of a rectangle is 53 inches

let the two shorter sides be the width w

so w+w= 18in

the two longer sides is L

L+L=2l

Step two:

but the expression for the perimeter of a rectangle is

P=2W+2L

53= 18+2L

53-18=2L

35=2L

divide both sides by 1

L=35/2

L=17.5
