Answer:

30 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio of 4:3 means that if one part can be represented by x, the original height is equal to 4 * x and the mural height is equal to 3 * x. This is because the ratio of original : mural is 4 : 3, so if one part = x, we have 4 * x : 3 * x. Therefore,

original mast height = 40 feet

4 * x = original mast height = 40 feet

divide both sides by 4 to get x

x = 10 feet

3 * x = mural mast height = 3 * 10 feet = 30 feet

Simultaneous equations 5x+y=28 x+y=2

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$5x + y = 28$

$x + y = 8$

Solve the equation for y by moving 'x' to R.H.S and changing its sign

$5x + y = 28$

$y = 2 - x$

Substitute the given value of y into the equation 5x + y = 28

$5x + 2 - x = 28$

Solve the equation for x

Collect like terms

$4x + 2 = 28$

Move constant to R.H.S and change its sign

$4x = 28 - 2$

Subtract the numbers

$4x = 26$

Divide both sides of the equation by 4

$\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{26}{4}$

Calculate

$x = \frac{26}{4}$

Reduce the numbers with 2

$x = \frac{13}{2}$

Now, substitute the given value of x into the equation y = 2 - x

$y = 2 - \frac{13}{2}$

Solve the equation for y

$y = - \frac{9}{2}$

The possible solution of the system is the ordered pair ( x , y )

-------------------------------------------------------------

Let's check if the given ordered pair is the solution of the system of equation:

plug the value of x and y in both equation

$5 \times \frac{13}{2} - \frac{9}{2} = 28$

$\frac{13}{2} - \frac{9}{2} = 2$

Simplify the equalities

$28 = 28$

$2 = 2$

Since , all of the equalities are true, the ordered pair is the solution of the system.

$(x \:, y \: ) = ( \frac{13}{2} \: , - \frac{9}{2})$

Hope this helps....

Best regards!!
