A) x * y = 12
B) x + y = -7
A) x = 12 / y
Substitute this into B
B) 12/y + y = -7
multiplying both sides by "y"
12 + y^2 = -7y
y^2 + 7y + 12 = 0
y = -4
and from equation B we calculate x as -3

x+4y=17 and -x-6y=-23 what's the x and y I really badly need this I need this so I can play at my basketball game tommorw and I

loris [4]

Answer:

x = 5
y = 3

Solution:

=> x + 4y = 17

-x - 6y = -23

=> -2y = -6
=> y = 3

Now, let's substitute the value of y into the first equation.

x + 4y = 17
=> x + 4(3) = 17
=> x + 12 = 17
=> x = 5

Let's check our answer to make sure it is correct.

Check:

-x - 6y = -23
=> -(5) - 6(3) = -23
=> -5 - 18 = -23
=> -23 = -23

Hence, this is proven correct.

Hoped this helped.

A square pyramid has a base length of 6 inches. The height of each triangular face is 11 inches. Which expressions correctly cal

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

168 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The square would be 36 in²

Area of a triangle is A= 1/2 bh

A = 1/2 (11 x 6), A= 1/2 (66)

1/2 (66) = 33 in², which is the area of a triangle.

Then you multiply 33 x 4 to get the area of all the triangles, which is 132 in²

You add the area of the square to the area of the triangles, which is 168 in².
