Answer:
(0, 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the intersection of two lines, we want to find the value when they equal each other. To do this, we want to set the equations equal to each other.
First, let's simplify y = x + 4x + 4 by combining the x's.
y = 5x + 4
Now let's set the equations equal to each other. Since they both equal y, we can set the opposite sides equal to each other.
5x + 4 = 2x + 4
Now you want to combine the terms.
[subtract 4] 5x = 2x
[subtract 2x] 3x = 0
Now you want to isolate the x.
[divide by 3] x = 0
Now we want to find y by plugging x = 0 back into the equations.
y = 5(0) + 4
[multiply] y = 0 + 4
[add] y = 4
Check this with the other equation.
y = 2(0) + 4
[multiply] y = 0 + 4
[add] y = 4
Your answer is correct!
(0, 4)
Answer:
To find angle y you subtract the two angles form 180 degrees because it is a straight line. Then you subtract angle y and 72 from 180 because a triangle adds up to 180 degrees and you get angle x.

Gas for lawn mower ... $2.25
mowing neighbor's yard ... $15.00
Julia's profit ... x
<span>We would like to know what is the value of the x.
x = $15.00 - $2.25 = $12.75
Result: Julia's profit is $12.75.
