First we need to understand that the sum of adjacent angles on a straight line is 180°,meaning that when all the angles are added up the answer would be 180°

Here's how we can set up the equation:

2x+100°=180°
2x=80°
x=40°

Thus the answer is 40°

Again,hope it helps!

Hey there!

We can solve this problem by doing PEMDAS, which lists:

$Parentheses \\ Exponents \\ Multiplication \\ Division \\ Addition \\ Subtraction$

We have in this equation

$Parentheses \\ Exponents \\ Dvision$

Let's sp;ve this equation now!

Parentheses ↓

$(6 -3) = 3$

Exponents ↓

$3^2 = 9$

Division ↓

$\frac{36}{9} = 9$

Okay now , I show you the steps so it can be easier to solve!

$\frac{36}{(6-3)^2} \\ \\ 6-3 = 3 \\ \\ \frac{36}{3^2} \\ \\ 3^2 = 9 \\ \\ \frac{36}{9} \\ \\ \\ \\ Answer: 4$

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

As a first step in solving the system shown, Yumiko multiplies both sides of the equation 2x – 3y = 12 by 6. By what factor shou

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Yumiko should multiply the other equation by 3.

If she adds the two equations she would be left with the variable 'x'.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two equations are as follows:

$2x - 3y = 12 \hspace{5mm} \hdots (1)$

$5x + 6y = 18 \hspace{5mm} \hdots (2)$

It is given that she multiplies the first equation by 6. Therefore, (1) becomes

$12x - 18y = 72 \hspace{15mm} \hdots (a)$

Now, note that the sign of the variable 'y' is negative. So, if we make the co-effecient of 'y' equal in both the cases, add them it would result in the elimination of the variable 'y'.

The co-effecient of y in Equation (2) is 6. To make it 18 like it is in Equation (1), we multiply throughout by 3.

Therefore, Equation (2) becomes:

$15x + 18y = 54 \hspace{5mm} \hdots (b)$
