Looking at the first system of equations,
16x - 10y = 10
-8x - 6y = 6
If we multiply both sides of the second equation by 2, the coefficient of x is exactly the negative of the coefficient of x in the first equation.
-8x - 6y = 6
⇒ 2 (-8x - 6y) = 2 (6)
⇒ -16x - 12y = 12
By combining this new equation with the first one, we can eliminate x and solve for y :
(16x - 10y) + (-16x - 12y) = 10 + 12
⇒ -22y = 22
⇒ y = -1
Then we just solve for x by replacing y in either equation.
16x - 10y = 10
⇒ 16x - 10 (-1) = 10
⇒ 16x + 10 = 10
⇒ 16x = 0
⇒ x = 0
The main idea behind elimination is combining the given equations in just the right amount so that one of the variables disappears. The "right amount" involves using the LCM of the coefficients of a given variable. In this example, the x-coefficients had LCM(8, 16) = 16, so we only had to scale one of the equations (the one with -8x) to cancel all the x terms.
If we wanted to eliminate y first instead, we first note that LCM(6, 10) = 30. To get 30 as a coefficient on y, in the first equation we would have multiplied by 3:
16x - 10y = 10
⇒ 3 (16x - 10y) = 3 (10)
⇒ 48x - 30y = 30
And in the second equation, we would have multiplied by -5 (negative so that upon combining the equations, we end up with -30y + 30y = 0):
-8x - 6y = 6
⇒ -5 (-8x - 6y) = -5 (6)
⇒ 40x + 30y = -30
Now combining the two scaled equations gives
(48x - 30y) + (40x + 30y) = 30 + (-30)
⇒ 88x = 0
⇒ x = 0
We then solve for y :
16x - 10y = 10
⇒ -10y = 10
⇒ y = -1
so we end up with the same solution as before.

A half circle is joined to an equilateral triangle with side lengths of 12 units.
What is the perimeter of the resulting shape? Type your answer in the box below.
Answers
Answer:
P = 12 pi units + 24 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
All sides of an equilateral triangle are of the same length. Here that length is 12 units. We take a circle of diameter 12 units and cut it in half through its center. Finally, we join the triangle (remembering that all of the side lengths are 12 units) to the half circle of diameter 12 units.
The half circle portion of the resulting shape has circumference 2(pi)(12 units) divided by 2, or 12 pi units. This is half the formula C = 2(pi)(r). The two non-attached sides of the triangle have a total length of 24 units.
Thus, the perimeter of the resulting figure is P = 12 pi units + 24 units.

(i)Given that:
AE || BD
AB = ? [Let AB be x]
BC = 3
ED = 12
DC = 4
We know that
By Basic Proportionality Theorem,
AB/BC = ED/DC
On substituting these values in the above formula
⇛ AB / 3 = 12 / 4
On applying cross multiplication then
⇛ x(4) = (12)3
⇛ 4x = 36
Shift the number 4 from LHS to RHS.
⇛ x = 36÷4
⇛ x = 36/4
Therefore, AB = 9
Answer: The value of AB for the given problem is 9.
Similarly,
(ii) Given that:
EB || DC
AE = 14
ED = 12
AB = ? [Let AB be X]

On substituting these values in the above formula
⇛ 14 / 12 = x / 18
On applying cross multiplication then
⇛ 14(18) = (12)x
⇛ 252 = 12x
Shift the number 252 from LHS to RHS.
⇛ X = 256÷12
⇛ X = 21
Therefore, AB = 21

We need to use 60 yards of fencing to enclose a rectangular shaped garden the length is 30 yards less than twice the width. Find the dimensions of the garden.
Answers
Answer:
W = 16 2/3 yards
L = 3 1/3 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangle will consist of two sides with length L, and two more sides with length W. Area will be W*L.
We are told that L is 30 yards less than 2W:
L = 2W - 30
We also learn that we have 60 yards of fencing for the perimeter, which is 2L + 2W.
Therefore, we can write: 2W + 2L = 60 yards.
I see the words "need to use," so I must conclude that all of the fencing must be used. This sounds like a domestic issue.
Let's use L=2W-20 in the equation 2W + 2L = 60:
2W + 2L = 60
2W + 2(2W-20) = 60
2W + 4W-40 = 60
6W =100
W = (100/6) = 16 2/3 yards
L = 2W - 30
L = 2(16+(2/3)) - 30
L = 33 1/3 - 30
L = 3 1/3 yards
===============
Is the length 30 yards less than twice the width?
2W = 33.33
33.33 - 3.33 = 30 yards YES
The formula to convert degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius is: 'C = (5/9) ('F -32). The formula to convert degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit is: 'F = 1.8 ('C) + 32. Using any of these formulas, determine, for what temperature the value of it in degrees Celsius is represented by the same number as its value in degrees Fahrenheit. Show your work. HINT: use either of those two equations, use x for 'C and use x for 'F, and solve it for x. The solution will be the answer to the problem (because the temperature is the same, and its numerical value in degrees Celsius in this case is the same as its number value in degrees Fahrenheit). *
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
5/9 × (x - 32) = 1.8 × x + 32 = 9/5 × x + 32
5×(x - 32) = 9×9/5 × x + 32×9
5×5×(x - 32) = 9×9×x + 32×9×5
25x - 32×25 = 81x + 32×45
32×(-25 - 45) = 56x
4×(-70) = 7x
x = 4×(-10) = -40
-40° is the same temperature in Celsius and in Fahrenheit.

Check whether (19/9, 15/3) is
a solution of the equation 3a + b = 8 or
not where (a,b) is co-ordinate point.
Answers
Answer:
No, it is not a solution to the equation.
Step-by-step explanation:
If [tex]( \frac{19}{9} , \frac{15}{3} )[/tex] is a solution of the equation, the left-hand side (LHS) of the equation would equal to the right-hand side (RHS) of the equation.
3a +b= 8
When a= [tex] \frac{19}{9} [/tex], b= [tex] \frac{15}{3} [/tex],
LHS
= [tex]3( \frac{19}{9} ) + \frac{15}{3} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{19}{3} + \frac{15}{3} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{34}{3} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{34}{3} ≠8[/tex]
Since the left-hand side is not equal to the right-hand side of the equation, [tex]( \frac{19}{9} , \frac{15}{3} )[/tex] is not a solution of the equation.
Given equation is 3a+b = 8
Given point = (19/9,15/3)
Put a = 19/9 and b = 15/3 in LHS of the given equation then
⇛ 3(19/9)+(15/3)
⇛(19/3)+(15/3)
⇛ (19+15)/3
⇛ 34/3 ≠ 0
LHS ≠ RHS
Given point not satisfies the given equation
Therefore, it is not the solution of the given point.

Suppose that y varies directly with x
and y = 10 when x = 20. What is y
when x = 15?
Enter your answer as a simplified fraction.
y =
Answers
Answer:
15/2
Step-by-step explanation:
y varies directly as x can be written as:
y & x
y = Kx
K = y/x
But from the question, we were told that:
y = 10
X = 20
K = y/x
K = 10/20
K = 1/2
The formula for the expression is:
y = Kx
y = 1/2 x
Now let us solve for y, when:
x = 15
y = 1/2 x
y = 1/2 x 15
y = 15/2
Answer:
When x = 15, y = 15/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula: "y varies directly with x" comes out to y = kx symbolically.
Find the value of the constant of proportionality, k: If y = 10 when x = 20, then this relationship becomes 10 = 20k, and k = 1/2.
Then the formula is y = (1/2)x.
When x = 15, y = 15/2
