If ab= 7x-6 and bc= 12-2x. Then what does ac equal?

Ab = (7x-6) →   b = (7x-6)/a   (1)

bc = (12-2x) → b = (12-2x)/c   (2)

Since (1) = (2) → (7x-6)/a = (12-2x)/c OR  a/c = (7x-6)/(12-2x)  (3)

Multiply  both numerators of (3) by the SQUARE of their  respective denominators;

(a*c²)/c = (7x-6)(12-2x)²/(12-2x)
Now simplify:

ac = (7x-6)(12x-2x)  or ac = -14x² + 96x - 72

Which property was used to solve the given inequality?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Subtraction Property of Inequality is used to solve the given inequality

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given inequality is:

y + 8 < - 8

To solve the inequality, subtract 8 on both sides,

We know that,

Adding or subtracting the same quantity from both sides of an inequality leaves the inequality symbol unchanged

Also, by Subtraction Property of Inequality,

If you minus a number from one side of an inequality, you have to minus that same number from the other side of the inequality as well

y + 8 < - 8\\\\\text{Subtract 8 from both sides of inequality }\\\\y + 8 - 8 < -8  - 8\\\\simplify,\\\\y

Thus, Subtraction Property of Inequality is used

Find x and y ! <br><br> pls help giving 50 points !!
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

y = 20°

x = 35°

Explanation:

Equation's:

   1) 2y + x + 105° = 180°

   2) 3x + x + 2y = 180°

Make y subject in equation 2

3x + x + 2y = 180

4x + 2y = 180

2y = 180 - 4x

y = 90 - 2x

Insert this into equation 1

2(90 - 2x) + x + 105° = 180°

180 - 4x + x + 105 = 180

-3x = -105

x = 35°

Find value of y

y = 90 - 2x

y = 90 - 2(35)

y = 20°
