So y+x=2
x-y=4
one way is subsituteion where yousubisutte one of the number for another exg

x-y=4
add y to both sides
x=y+4
subsitute y+4 for x in x+y=2
 y+4+y=2
2y+4=2
subtract 4 from both sides
2y=-2
divide both sides by 2
y=-1
subsiutte
x+y=2
x-1=2
x=3




or elimination

x+y=2
x-y=4
add the two equations and cancel the y terms

x+x+y-y=2+4
2x=6
divide both sides by 2
x==3
subsitute
x+y=2
3+y=2
y=-1


so x=3
y=-1

Simplify the square root of 27x^12/300x^8
Darina [25.2K]
The first thing we are going to do is rewrite the expression correctly.
 We have:
 root (27x ^ 12 / 300x ^ 8)
 Rewriting:
 root ((27/300) * (x ^ 12 / x ^ 8))
 root ((9/100) * (x ^ (12-8)))
 root ((9/100) * (x ^ (4)))
 root ((9/100) * (x ^ (4)))
 3 * x ^ 2 * root ((1/100)
 (3 * x ^ 2) / 10
 (3/10) * (x ^ 2)
 Answer:
 (3/10) * (x ^ 2)

The answer would be D i think because if the two angles are to equal 72, and one of the angles equals 42, 72-42= 30. to find x, you’d do 30/6 which equals 5. so x=5 and the angle measure would be 30

Since theres 4 numbers and 60 spins if you divide it you get the average number that all the numbers would land on. 2 would be landed on 15 times if it went exactly to the calculations. not 100% sure though
