Mathematics

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 2 = 8

get rid of 2 to get x by itself on the left side

5x - 2 + 2 = 8 + 2 (whatever u do to one side do to the other)

5x = 10

divide to get 1x (divide both sides by 5)

x = 10

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

5×2=10-2=8

You subtract add two to both sides, giving you 5x=10

Divide the 10 by 5 and you get 2.

Solve for x please, will give braknliest
kow [346]
Answer: The answer should be 72

Explanation: Triangles add up to 180. The two bottom points are the same. So you would take 180 and subtract it by 36. That would give you 144. You would then take 144 and divide it by 2, because the two angles are the same and your only trying to find one.

Two linear equations are shown. A coordinate grid with 2 lines. The first line is labeled y equals StartFraction one-third EndFr
Lorico [155]

Answer:

(7,\frac{13}{3})

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

<em>The equation of the first line</em>

y=\frac{1}{3}x+2 ------> equation A

<em>The equation of the second line</em>

y=\frac{4}{3}x-5 ------> equation B

Solve the system of equations by elimination

Multiply equation A by -4 both sides

(-4)y=(-4)(\frac{1}{3}x+2)

-4y=-\frac{4}{3}x-8 --------> equation C

Adds equation B and equation C

y=\frac{4}{3}x-5\\-4y=-\frac{4}{3}x-8\\--------\\y-4y=-5-8\\-3y=-13\\y=\frac{13}{3}

<em>Find the value of x</em>

substitute the value of y

\frac{13}{3}=\frac{1}{3}x+2

\frac{1}{3}x=\frac{13}{3}-2

Multiply by 3 both sides

x=13-6

x=7

therefore

The solution to the system of equations is the point (7,\frac{13}{3})
