What is the flaw in Gina’s proof?
A) Points D and E must be constructed, not simply labeled, as midpoints.
B) Segments DE and AC are parallel by construction. THIS IS THE FLAW. THE SEGMENTS WERE NOT DRAWN NOR PROPERLY IDENTIFIED.
C) The slope of segments DE and AC is not 0.
D) The coordinates of D and E were found using the Distance between Two Points Postulate
(?) is (-1) and that gray blank thing is 3.
Give a brainliest please:-)
Answer:
(x, y) = (- 2, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
given the 2 equations
3y = 11 - 2x → (1)
3x = y - 11 → (2)
Rearrange (2) expressing y in terms of x
add 11 to both sides
y = 3x + 11 → (3)
Substitute y = 3x + 11 into (1)
3(3x + 11) = 11 - 2x
9x + 33 = 11 - 2x ( add 2x to both sides )
11x + 33 = 11 ( subtract 33 from both sides )
11x = - 22 ( divide both sides by 11 )
x = - 2
Substitute x = - 2 in (3) for corresponding value of y
y = (3 × - 2) + 11 = - 6 + 11 = 5
As a check
substitute x = - 2, y = 5 into (1) and (2) and if the left side equals the right side then these values are the solution.
(1) : left side = (3 × 5) = 15
right side = 11 - (2 × - 2) = 11 + 4 = 15 ⇒ left = right
(2) : left side = (3 × - 2 ) = - 6
right side = 5 - 11 = - 6 ⇒ left = right
solution = (- 2, 5 )
Simplification/ 15x^6-20x^5+10x^4
Answer:
x = 1, y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
15x + 3y = 9 (1)
10x + 7y = -4 (2)
3 × (2) - 2 × (1)
3 × (2)
30x + 21y = -12 (3)
2 × (1)
30x + 6y = 18 (4)
(3) - (4)
15y = -30
y = -30 / 15
y = -2
sub y = -2 into (1)
15x + 3y = 9
15x + (3 × -2) = 9
15x - 6 = 9
15x = 9 + 6
15x = 15
x = 15 / 15
x = 1
