Adding the two equations
3x + 6y + 3x - 6y = 36+0
6x = 36
x = 6
.
subtracting second equation from first
(3x + 6y ) - (3x-6y) =36 -0
12y = 36
y = 3
.
therefore
x = 6 and y = 3

The answer to the question above is letter C. To explain the answer if the given question, a circle of 30 inches radius, if the central angle is 35 degrees, intersecting the circle forms an arc of length which is 18.33 inches.
1. Write as an algebraic equation:
12 + n ≤ 2n - 8
2. Solve for n.
12 + n - 12 ≤ 2n - 8 - 12
n ≤ 2n - 20
n - 2n ≤ 2n - 20 - 2n
-n ≤ -20
Multiply both sides by -1 (this means you must flip the inequality sign).
n ≥ 20
FINAL ANSWER: n ≥ 20
Hope this helps! Feel free to ask for clarification.
