Equation 1)  2x - 6y = 5
Equation 2)  x + y = 2

Multiply all of equation 2 by 2.

2)   2(x + y = 2)

2)  2x + 2y = 4
1)  2x - 6y = 5

Subtract equations from one another.

8y = -1

Divide both sides by 8.

y = -1/8

Plug in -1/8 for x in the first equation.

2x - 6y = 5

2x - 6(-1/8) = 5

Simplify.

2x + 3/4 = 5

Subtract 3/4 from both sides.

2x = 5 - 3/4

Simplify.

2x = 4 1/4

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 17/8 OR 2 1/8

(17/8, -1/8) or if you want it in decimals  (2.125, -0.125)


2x-6y=5                    
x+y=2      y=2-x
2x-6(2-x)=5
2x-12+6=5
8x-12=5
8x=17
x=17/8

(17/8)+y=2   You plug in the x-value to find the y-value now
y=2-17/8
y=-1/8

Find the value of each variable<br> x= <br> y=<br> z=
zvonat [6]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A 45 degree angle in a right triangle produces 2 equal sides. In this case z and the perpendicular line are equal. So that's were we'll start. Then you move on to the 60 degree angle to get x and y.

Finding z

z^2 + z^2 = (24√2)                    Combine the left

2z^2 = 24^2 * 2                         Divide both sides by 2

2z^2/2 = 24^2/2

z^2 = 24^2                                 Take the square root of both sides

√z^2 = √24^2

z = 24

Finding x and y

The perpendicular = 24. Because it is a 60 degree angle that's given, we can do this without a calculator.

Tan 60 = opposite over adjacent

sqrt(3) = Perpendicular / z                      Multiply both sides by z

z*sqrt(3) = perpendicular

The above calculation tells us the perpendicular is 24

z*sqrt(3) = 24                                           Divide by sqrt 3

z = 24/√3

z = 24/1.73

z = 8√3

Finding x

Use Pythagoras to determine x

Perpendicular^2 + (8√3)^2 = x^2

24^2 + 8^2*3 = x^2

576 + 192 = x^2

768 = x^2

√x^2 = √768

x = 27.71
