Suppose you want to use elimination to solve this system. 3x + 17y = −2
5x + 6y = 9

By what numbers would you need to multiply the two equations in order to eliminate y? By what numbers would you need to multiply the two equations in order to eliminate x instead? Drag and drop the correct numbers and words into the boxes to complete the explanation.

i can't see the picture : /

step-by-step explanation:

no, her answer is not correct.   we square the lengths of all sides and then determine whether the pythagorean theorem holds here:

9² + 15² = 306.   this is not equal to the square of the longest side ( that square being 395.   answer c is correct.

answer: bearing in mind that a rectangle has a perimeter of length + length + width + width.

step-by-step explanation:

p = perimeter

l = length

x=width

p = 2l + 2x

p = 2(l+x)     < ==== perimeter of the base of the box.
