X = 3y - 6

1 answer:

4 0

X = 3y - 6....so sub 3y - 6 in for x in the other equation

2(3y - 6) - 4y = 8
6y - 12 - 4y = 8
2y = 8 + 12
2y = 20
y = 20/2
y = 10

x = 3y - 6
x = 3(10) - 6
x = 30 - 6
x = 24

solution is (24,10)

Answer:

A. 2

you add 4x + 3x gives you 7x

then you divide by 7 on each side

7 divided by 7x is x

and 7 divided by 14 is 2

Which of the following terms best describes the relationship between /W and /X ( Answer as soon as possible please)

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

B. Same-side interior angles

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle w and angle x lie on the same side of the transversal that cut across the two parallel lines, and are also within the two parallel lines. They are therefore regarded as same-side interior angles. Same-side interior angles are supplementary.

Help me answer the question

Nastasia [14]

$\huge \boxed{\mathbb{QUESTION} \downarrow}$

Revathi's age is 1/3 of her mother's age. If their difference in age is 24 years, find Revathi's age.

$\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}$

Given,

Mother's age = x
Revathi's age = 1/3 x = ?
Difference in their age = 24 years ⇨ x - 1/3 x = 24.

Now, let's solve this question using the above equation which we just formed.

$\sf \: x - \frac{1}{3}x = 24 \\$

Combine x and $\sf\:-\frac{1}{3}x$ to get $\sf\frac{2}{3}x$ .

$\sf\frac{2}{3}x=24 \\$

Multiply both sides by $\sf\frac{3}{2}$ , the reciprocal of $\sf\frac{2}{3}$ .

$\sf \: x=24\times \left(\frac{3}{2}\right)$

Express $\sf24\times \left(\frac{3}{2}\right)$ as a single fraction.

$\sf \: x=\frac{24\times 3}{2} \\$

Multiply 24 and 3 to get 72.

$\sf \: x=\frac{72}{2} \\$

Divide 72 by 2 to get 36.

$\boxed{ \bf \: x=36 }$

We now have the age of Revathi's mother (x) = 36 years. Now, let's find Revathi's age ⇨ $\sf\:(\frac{1}{3}x)$

$\rightarrow \sf \: \frac{1}{3} x \\ \rightarrow \sf \: \frac{1}{3} \times 36 \\ \rightarrow \sf \: \frac{1}{ \bcancel 3} \times \bcancel{36} \\ \rightarrow \sf \:1 \times 12 \\ = \boxed{\boxed{\bf \: 12}}$

So, Revathi is 12 years old.
