B.<span>Adding 15 to both sides of the equation.
A. Adding 8x to both sides wouldn't cancel anything out.
B. Adding 15 to both sides will cancel out 15 making it easier to solve for x.
C.Adding 3 to both sides will not cancel anything out.
D. Adding 2x to both sides won't cancel anything out. </span>
First you chang top fractions into decimal add and divide that by 4 which is equal to 0.375 hope it helps.
Answer:
Check the solution below
Step-by-step explanation:
2) Given the equation
x +y =5... 1 and
x-y =3 ... 2
Add both equations
x+x = 5+3
2x = 8
x = 8/2
x = 4
Substitute x = 4 into 1:
From 1: x+y = 5
4+y= 5
y = 5-4
y = 1
3) Given
x+3y =15 ... 1
2x+7y=19 .... 2
From 2: x = 15-3y
Substitute into 2
2(15-3y)+7y = 19
30-6y+7y = 19
30+y = 19
y = 19-30
y = -11
Substitute y=-11 into x = 15-3y
x =15-3(-11)
x = 15+33
x = 48
The solution set is (48, -11)
4) given
x/2 +y/3 =0 and x+2y=1
From 1
(3x+2y)/6 = 0
3x+2y = 0.. 3
x+2y= 1... 4
From 4: x = 1-2y
Substutute
3(1-2y) +2y = 0
3-6y+2y = 0
3 -4y = 0
4y = 3
y = 3/4
Since x = 1-2y
x = 1-2(3/4)
x = 1-3/2
x= -1/2
The solution set is (-1/2, 3/4)
5) Given
5.x=1/2 and y =x +1 then solution is
We already know the vkue of x
Get y
y= x+1
y = 1/2 + 1
y = 3/2
Hence the solution set is (1/2, 3/2)
6) Given
3x +y =5 and x -3y =5
From 3; x = 5+3y
Substitute into 1;
3(5+3y)+y = 5
15+9y+y = 5
10y = 5-15
10y =-10
y = -1
Get x;
x = 5+3y
x = 5+3(-1)
x = 5-3
x = 2
Hence two solution set is (2,-1)
SAS stand for side-angle-side. In order to know that these two triangles are similar you need to find the measure of side GH and MN
First simplify the number part, 14/2 = 7/1
then the x part,

y doesn't need to be simplified
then simplify the z part, z^-6 = z^6
put it all together...
