Answer:

7.6

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

6.5^2 + x^2 = 10^2

42.25 + x^2 = 100

isolate x by subtracting 42.25 on both sides

x^2 = 57.75

square root of 57.75 or 7.6

Solve the system of linear equations by graphing. y = –5/2 x – 7 x + 2y = 4 What is the solution to the system of linear equatio

Anestetic [448]

Keywords

system; linear equations; graphing; solution

we have

$y=-\frac{5}{2}x-7$ -------> equation A

$x+2y=4$

$x=4-2y$ ----> equation B

The <u>system</u> of <u>linear equations</u> is composed of equation A and equation B

Substitute the equation B in equation A

$y=-\frac{5}{2}[4-2y]-7$

$y=-10+5y-7$

$4y=17$

$y=17/4=4.25$

Find the value of x

$x=4-2[17/4]=-4.5$

The<u> solution</u> is the point $(-4.5,4.25)$

Using a <u>graphing</u> tool

see the attached figure

therefore

the answer is the option A

$(-4.5,4.25)$
