-x - y = 8
2x - y = -1
Ok, we are going to solve this in 2 parts. First we have to solve for one of the variables in one of the equation in terms of the other variable. I like to take the easiest equation first and try to avoid fractions, so let's use the first equation and solve for x.
-x - y = 8 add y to each side
-x = 8 + y divide by -1
x = -8 - y
So now we have a value for x in terms of y that we can use to substitute into the other equation. In the other equation we are going to put -8 - y in place of the x.
2x - y = -1
2(-8 - y) - y = -1 multiply the 2 through the parentheses
-16 - 2y - y = -1 combine like terms
-16 - 3y = -1 add 16 to both sides
-3y = 15 divide each side by -3
y = -5
Now we have a value for y. We need to plug it into either of the original equations then solve for x. I usually choose the most simple equation.
-x - y = 8
-x - (-5) = 8 multiply -1 through the parentheses
-x + 5 = 8 subtract 5 from each side
-x = 3 divide each side by -1
x = -3
So our solution set is
(-3, -5)
That is the point on the grid where the 2 equations are equal, so that is the place where they intersect.
Hi!
An obtuse angle is one greater than 90 degrees, a right angle one that is 90, and acute less than 90.
An obtuse triangle is one with one obtuse angle, all the rest being acute. A right triangle is one with one right angle, all the rest acute. And finally, an acute triangle is one with three acute angles.
In this case, the angles measure 83 degrees, 31 degrees, and 66 degrees. All of them are acute angles, as they're all less than 90 degrees.
Therefore, the triangle is an acute triangle.
Hope this helped!
36v - 12 = 12 .....add 12 to both sides
36v - 12 + 12 = 12 + 12...simplify
36v = 24...divide both sides by 36
(36/36)v = 24/36
v = 2/3 <===
Answer:
(5,-2).

South is Negative Y axis.
East is Positive X axis.
(look at the compass in the top right corner)
Cory's current coordinates are (1,1).
When Cory walks 3 units south, he moves 3 steps downwards in the Y axis, which means if his current Y position is 1, we subtract 3, ( 1 - 3 = -2).
And when Cory moves 4 units east, Add 4 as he is walking in the positive X axis. (4 + 1 = 5).
new (x,y) are (5,-2).
