Answer:

(-7, -12)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-3y=8

5x-2y=-11

Is there any of the like terms can be added and the result will be 0? No, so we have to multiple one OR both of the equations to make that one number do that.

(I will try to remove the y like terms so i will multiple both of them by the opposite so both of the ys will be 6)

2(4x-3y=8)

-3(5x-2y=-11)

8x-6y=16

-15x+6y=33

(now the easy part… cancel the 6s and add the equations)

8x+(-15x)=-7x

16+33=49

-7x=49

(divide 49 by -7)

x=-7

Replace x in any of the equations and you’ll get the y value.

4x-3y=8

4(-7)-3y=8

-28-3y=8

-3y=36

y=12

Threfore, there is one solution which is….. (-7,-12)

*Help ASAP Please! Studying for finals and I'm stuck on this question!*
Nezavi [6.7K]
First I am going to assume that these are both right triangles based off of look and because it is much easier. Without it you have to use law of sines or law of cosines...
So to find x you must first find y which can be done simply by using the pythagorean theorem. This theorem is defined as the sum of the squared legs is equal to the sum of the hypotenuse or x^2 + y^2 = z^2

If we substitute in the known values 16^2 + y^2 = 20^2 and solve for y we get that y = sqrt(20^2 - 16^2), this then simplifies to y = 12

Finding x is much more annoying, the easiest way I can immediately see is to find the upper angles by doing sin(16/20) and then 90 - sin(16/20) since the complementary angle is the one you want. I don't have a calculator or a trig table with me right now but I will tell you that x will be equal to 12 ÷ the inverse cosine of the angle (90degrees - sin(16/20)).

I am pretty sure the answer is D though because we know for sure y = 12 and x has to be greater than y because the hypotenuse must be larger than both legs. It could be E but you won't know unless you do the math for x. So it is either D or E but I would be surprised if a Professor made you do all of the work just to say it doesn't work...

Malia works at a movie theater and is paid hourly. One month, she earned $388.80. The total amount she earns can be found using
Georgia [21]
Malia : y = 8.1x.....this tells me she makes 8.10 per hr worked

Bill : if he earned 144.90 for working 18 hrs.....144.90/18 = 8.05 per hr worked.

so Malia makes 5 cents more per hr worked.

Is that the answer ur looking for ?
