Answer:
x = 17, y = 28
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Isolate for x in "x - y = -3, -8":
x - y+y = -3, -8+y
x = -11 + y
2. Substitute "x = -11 + y" in for x in the second expression:
-11 + y + y = 45
3. Simplify:
-11 + 2y = 45
4. Isolate y:
-11+11 +2y = 45+11
2y = 56

y = 28
5. Substitute the new y-value into the first equation:
x = -11 + 28
x = 17
hope this helps!
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe that the answer is 8
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The Side-Angle-Side method cana only be used when information given shows that an included angle which is between two sides of a ∆, as well as the two sides of the ∆ are congruent to the included side and two sides of the other ∆.
Thus, since John already knows that
and
, therefore, an additional information showing that the angle between
and
in ∆ABC is congruent to the angle between
and
in ∆DEF.
For John to prove that ∆ABC is congruent to ∆DEF using the Side-Angle-Side method, the additional information needed would be
.
See attachment for the diagram that has been drawn with the necessary information needed for John to prove that ∆ABC is congruent to ∆DEF.
Answer: 231.3 repeating!
Step-by-step explanation: I used the calculator
(x+4)(x+4+1) = (x+1)(x+1+11)
(x+4)(x+5) = (x+1)(x+12)
x^2 + 4x+5x+20=x^2+x+12x+12
9x + 20 = 13x + 12
13x-9x = 20-12
4x = 8
x = 2
