Solve the following simultaneous equations: 3x + 5y = 19 and 8x - 2y = -18. If both equations represent lines in a coordinate system, at which point do they intersect?

I. 3x + 5y = 19 II. 8x - 2y = -18 . We see that we can simplify the second equation, and we do so: II. x - y = -9. Now, we check to see which variable i...

In triangle XYZ: XZ = 10 cm; YZ = 8 cm; cos Z = 1/8. Calculate the length of XY.

We can use the cosine rule to determine the lenght of XY.
XY2 = 102+82-2108cos ZXY2 = 100+64-180(1/8) = 144XY = 12
