According to the system:
5 – 7x + 2y² = -10
1 – 5x – 2y = -22
______________
a) No ; (4, 6) is not a solution to the
system. This point does not touch either equation.
b) No ; (6, 4) is not a solution to the system. This point does not touch either equation.
Solutions:

x = ( 122 ∓ 3√101 ) / 25 ≈ 3.674 or 6.086
y = ( -7 ± 3√101 ) / 10 ≈ 2.315 or -3.715
Yep, this one seems sneaky and confusing. But it's not so bad if you remember the things you learned about parallel lines. (It can't be too tough ... I learned them
in 1954 and I still know how to use them.)
Look at the picture. Line ' l ' is parallel to line ' m ', and the horizontal line on the bottom (which is not labeled) is a transversal that cuts the parallel lines.
Did you learn that interior angles on the same side of the transversal are equal ?
I'm sure you did, although it may have a new name nowadays.
Anyway, with the help of that 'tool', angle-'B' and angle-'D' are equal. So . . .
(angle-A + angle-B) = 120
angle-B = 65
angle-A = 120 - 65 = <u>55 degrees</u>.
Simplify the expression.
Exact Form :
- 53/12
Decimal Form :
- 4.416
Mixed Number Form :
- 4 5/12
Hope this helps !
Have a great day! :)
Just keep adding 1/6 to the given term and that should help you figure out the rule.
