Answer:

{x,y} = {6/5,23/10}

Step-by-step explanation:

 [1]    7x + 2y = 13

  [2]    4x + 4y = 14  <---------- linear equations given

Graphic Representation of the Equations : PICTURE
2y + 7x = 13        4y + 4x = 14  

Solve by Substitution :

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  y

[2]    4y = -4x + 14

[2]    y = -x + 7/2

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [1]

  [1]    7x + 2•(-x +7/2) = 13

  [1]    5x = 6

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x

  [1]    5x = 6

  [1]    x = 6/5

// By now we know this much :

   x = 6/5

   y = -x+7/2

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y

   y = -(6/5)+7/2 = 23/10

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [1]

 [1]    7x + 2•(-x +7/2) = 13

  [1]    5x = 6

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x

 [1]    5x = 6

[1]    x = 6/5

// By now we know this much :

   x = 6/5

   y = -x+7/2

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y

  y = -(6/5)+7/2 = 23/10

A lawn with an area of 300 square feet needs 1/2 pound of grass seed. How many pounds of grass seed are needed for a lawn that i

2 pounds.

60(20) = 1200 = area
If 300 square feet requires 1/2 pound, you can divide 1200 square feet by 300 square feet.

1200/300=4
4 times 1/2
4(1/2)=2

For every 300 square feet, you need half a pound. If you were to have 600 square feet, you would need a pound of grass seed. Therefore, for 1200 square feet, you need 2 pounds of grass seed.

In a right triangle, if sin 0 = 8/17 what is cos 0 explain?
Oliga [24]

Answer:

We have sin² x + cos² x =1 for all real x.

Therefore, sin² x = 1 – cos² x = 1 – (8/17)² = 1 – 64/289 = 225/289 = (15/17)².

However, remember that if x² = a², then x can be +a or –a.

Therefore, sin x can be either –15/17 or +15/17.

Everyone but Anirban so far has forgotten the negative solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that sinθ=817 and cosθ<0 , we have: cosθ=−√1−sin2θ. cosθ=−√1−(817)2. cosθ=−√1−64289.
