The trick is to write appropriate equations and then solve the system of equations you've created.

"sum of two numbers is -5:"  x + y = -5

"difference                   is  -1:"  x-y = -1

Add these two equations together.  This will cause y to drop out, and you will be left with an equation in x alone:

2x  = - 6, so x = -3.  Subst. -3 for x in either equation, above, and find the corresponding y value.

Then write your solution as (-3, y ) (write in your value for y).

Answers:
(x+2) = 55 degrees

x = 53 degrees

Explanation:
A triangle always equals 180 degrees. It was given that one of the angle measures is 72 degrees. 180-72=108. Now I need to find the value of x. (x+2)+x=108. Solving this equation I get x=53. Substitute this back into the angle measures and u get the answers as stated above.

Scott burned 20 calories per minute jogging for x minutes and 5 calories per minute for biking for y minutes. He spent a total o
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

x = 112

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create two equations 1. one that calculates calories burned and 2.another that calculates minutes:

20*x + 5*y = 1200

x + y = 120

Then we can solve for x

x = 120 - y

then we can plug that into the top equation:

20(120 - y) + 5y = 1200

divide by 5:

4(120 - y) + y = 240

distribute:

480 - 4y + y = 240

and then do all that combining like factors what not and simplify and solve:

480 - 3y = 240

-3y = -240

y = 8

NOW WE CAN JUST PLUG IN THE ANSWER FOR Y TO FIND X

8+x =120

x = 112
