What you would do is you would substitute each ordered pair into their respective variables. (ie. for (0,1) you would put 0 where the x is and 1 where the y is) You would then solve the equation. If the equation is not even (ie. 2=5 would not be even but 4=4 would be), you move on to the next ordered pair.
If you follow the process right and you get the equations correct, the answer should be B. (7,-2)
7x - 44 = 4x + 4
Add both sides 44
7x - 44 + 44 = 4x + 4 + 44
7x = 4x + 48
Subtract both sides 4x
7x - 4x = 4x - 4x + 48
3x = 48
Divide both sides by 3
3x ÷ 3 = 48 ÷ 3
<h2>x = 16 </h2>
______________________________
Suppose that the angle between 39 and 4x + 4 is t degrees as you know they make a straight line together thus :
39 + t + 4x + 4 = 180
39 + t + 4(16) + 4 = 180
39 + t + 64 + 4 = 180
39 + t + 68 = 180
t + 107 = 180
Subtract both sides 107
t + 107 - 107 = 180 - 107
<h2>t = 73 </h2>
_____________________________
8y - 43 = 4x + 4 + t
8y - 43 = 4(16) + 4 + 73
8y - 43 = 64 + 4 + 73
8y - 43 = 68 + 73
8y - 43 = 141
Add both sides 43
8y - 43 + 43 = 141 + 43
8y = 184
Divide both sides by 8
8y ÷ 8 = 184 ÷ 8
<h2>y = 23 </h2>
Answer: 1:52 PM
Step-by-step explanation:
PAULA: 2:14PM FINISHED THE RACE
BEATRICE: FINISHED 22 MINUTES EARLIER THEN PAULA
YOU TAKE 2:14PM AND SUBTRACT THE 22 MINS BEATRICE RAN TO GET YOU ANSWER.
SO 2:14 -14 MINS=2:00PM 14+8=22 (THE MINS BETRICE FINISHED)
2:00-8 MINS ( REMAINING FROM THE 22 ) THEN 2:00-8 MINS =1:52
ANSWER:1:52PM
