Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine is an ordered pair is a solution to the system of equations, substitute its coordinates into each of the equations.

An ordered pair is written in the form (x, y), so x=1 and y=2.

y = -2x +4

2 = -2(1) + 4 <=simplify this by multiplying (-2)(1)

2 = -2 + 4 <= add

2 = 2 <= same answers

LS = RS

7x - 2y = 3

7(1) - 2(2) = 3 <=simplify this but multiplying 7(1) and 2(2)

7 - 4 = 3 <= subtract

3 = 3 <= same answers

LS = RS

Since (1, 2) satisfies both of the equations, it is a soltuion to the system of equations.

$(x - 4) {}^{2} - 28 = 8 \\ (x - 4) {}^{2} = 8 + 28 \\ (x - 4) {}^{2} = 36$

This must be true for some value of x, since we have a quantity squared yielding a positive number, and since the equation is of second degree,there must exist 2 real roots.

$\sqrt{(x - 4) {}^{2} } = ± \sqrt{36} \\x - 4 = ±6 \\ x _{1}- 4 = 6 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: x _{2}- 4 = - 6 \\ x_{1} = 6 + 4 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: x_{2} = - 6 + 4 \\ x_{1} = 10 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: x_{2} = - 2$

Well he started off correct to the point of completing the square.

$(x - 3) {}^{2} = 16 \\ x - 3 = ±4 \\ \: x_{1} - 3 = 4 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: x_{2} - 3 = - 4 \\ x_{1} = 7 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: x_{2} = - 1$

Angie and Becky each completed a separate proof to show that the measures of vertical angles AKG and HKB are equal. Who complete

Helga [31]

Answer:

Becky, because her justification for the second statement should be "definition of supplementary angles" rather than "angle addition postulate."

Step-by-step explanation:

Becky completed the proof incorrectly because her justification for the second statement is not totally correct.

Angle addition postulate does not really apply here, as the sum of 2 angles may not give you exactly 180°.

However, the second statement, m<AKG + m<GKB = 180° and m<GKB + m<HKB = 180°, can be justified by the "Definition of Supplementary Angles".

The sum of supplementary angles = 180°.

Therefore, Becky completed the proof incorrectly.

Al saves pennies. He agreed to give 3/7 of his pennies to Bev if she would give 3/7 of what she got from Al to Carl and if Carl

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

2744 pennies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pennies Al have initially.

We have been given that Al agreed to give 3/7 of his pennies to Bev, so number of pennies Bev will get would be $\frac{3}{7}x$ .

We are also told that Bev gave 3/7 of what she got from Al to Carl, so number of pennies that Carl will get would be $\frac{3}{7}x\cdot \frac{3}{7}=\frac{9}{49}x$ .

Further, Carl gave 3/7 of what he got from Bev to Dani, so number of pennies that Dani will get would be $\frac{9}{49}x\cdot \frac{3}{7}=\frac{27}{343}x$ .
