Answer:
X=20
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
Since y=x+1 plug it into bottom equation as y.

Subtract 1 from both sides

Subtract 5x from both sides

Divide both sides by -4

Now x=-3 into the top equation to find y

y=-2
Answer:
9 units
Step-by-step explanation:
By the midsegment theorem,

Since the ratio
then
and

Draw two heights LE and MF. Quadrilateral ELMF is a rectangle, then EF = LM = 6 units.
Trapezoid KLMN is isosceles trapezoid (KL = MN), then KE = FN and

Consider right triangle KLE. By the Pythagorean theorem,

Answer:
7/16
Step-by-step explanation:
7/16>3/8
<span>This is the equation made from the problem where x=mystery number
</span><span>2x+3(x+1)=4(x-1)</span><span>
</span><span>Now let's solve for x!
</span><span>
</span><span>We start by distributing 3 into (X+1)
</span><span>
</span><span>3(x)=3x and 3(1)=3
</span><span>
</span><span>Now our equation is 2x+3x+3=4(x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>Let's combine both x values on the left side of the equation: 2x + 3x=5x
</span><span>
</span><span>We now have 5x+3=4(x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>Let's distribute 4 into (x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>4(x)=4x and 4(-1)=-4
</span><span>
</span><span>Now our equation is 5x+3=4x-4
</span><span>
</span><span>subtract 3 form both sides
</span><span>
</span><span>5x=4x-7
</span><span>
</span><span>subtract 4x from both sides
</span><span>
</span><span>x=-7
</span><span>
</span><span>Yay! So the number she is thinking of is -7!</span><span>
