<u>Let's solve this problem step-by-step</u>
<u>Let's set</u>:
2x + 6y = 36 -- equation 1
x + 4y = 20 -- equation 2
(equation 2) * 2
2x + 8y = 40 -- equation 3
(equation 3) - (equation 1)
2y = 4
y = 2 -- equation 4
Plug (equation 4)'s value of y into (equation 2)
x + 4(2) = 20
x = 20 - 8
x = 12
<u>Thus x = 12 and y = 2</u>
<u>Let's check, by substituting these values</u>

<u>Answer: x = 12 and y = 2</u>
Hope that helps!
Answer:
r = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
cross multiply
9 * r = 81
9r = 81
divide both sides by 9
r= 81/9
r = 9
9(2w−y)=21w−9y
First you multiply the numbers in the parenthesis by 9

subtract. 21w-18w=3w

add. -9y+9y=0

divide.

Final answer is 0.

Step-by-step Explanation:
Answer:
A rectangle is inscribed with its base on the x-axis and its upper corners on the parabola
y=5−x^2. What are the dimensions of such a rectangle with the greatest possible area?
Width =
Height =
Width =√10 and Height 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the coordinates of the vertices of the rectangle which lie on the given parabola y = 5 - x² ........ (1)
are (h,k) and (-h,k).
Hence, the area of the rectangle will be (h + h) × k
Therefore, A = h²k ..... (2).
Now, from equation (1) we can write k = 5 - h² ....... (3)
So, from equation (2), we can write
![A =h^{2} [5-h^{2} ]=5h^{2} -h^{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%20%3Dh%5E%7B2%7D%20%5B5-h%5E%7B2%7D%20%5D%3D5h%5E%7B2%7D%20-h%5E%7B4%7D)
For, A to be greatest ,

⇒ ![h[10-4h^{2} ]=0](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%5B10-4h%5E%7B2%7D%20%5D%3D0)
⇒ 
⇒ 
Therefore, from equation (3), k = 5 - h²
⇒ 
Hence,
Width = 2h =√10 and
Height =
