2+2=2x+2
-2 to both sides
2=2x
Divide 2
X=1

Answer:
3x - y = 0; 2x - y = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the present age of Hans and y be the present age of Grace,
Since, in present Grace is three times as old as Hans,
⇒ y = 3x
⇒ 3x - y = 0
Now, after 5 years,
The age of Hans = x + 5,
And, the age of Grace = y + 5
Also, in 5 years Grace will be twice as old as Hans is then,
⇒ y + 5 = 2 ( x + 5 )
⇒ y + 5 = 2x + 10
⇒ 2x - y = -5
Hence, the required system of linear equations is,
3x - y = 0; 2x - y = -5
If angle BCD measures 70° then so does angle DBC (because you have formed an isoceles triangle inside the larger ΔABC and the two legs are equal so the two angles have to be equal. So we have a two 70° angles which leaves 40° for the 3rd angle, which is ∠BDC.
Since ∠BDC and ∠ADB are supplementary (180°) - that leaves 140° for ∠ADB and is our answer
I will do my best to explain this “ x method “ I use
Basically, two factors of the first and last number must multiply together to sum up to equal the middle number
1 X 12
1 4
(x+12) (x+4)
Hope this helps!
