Answer:
???????
Step-by-step explanation:
triangles add to 180 degrees
lets call the unknown angle y
82 + x + y = 180
we also know that y + (2x-20 ) = 180 because it is a straight line
lets solve this for y
y + (2x-20 ) = 180
subtract (2x-20) from each side
y = 180 - (2x-20)
y = 180 - 2x + 20
y = 200 -2x
substitute this in the triangle equation
82 + x + y = 180
82 + x + 200 -2x = 180
combine like terms
282 -x = 180
subtract 282 from each side
-x = -102
multiply by -1 on each side
x = 102
the exterior angle is 2x-20
exterior angle is 2(102) -20
exterior angle is 204-20
exterior angle is 184
This is impossible.
There is a mistake with this problem
The triangle is not a triangle. Angle y would be negative. y=-4
1/3+1/4=7/12 because changing the denominators to make them common gives you 4/12+3/12=7/12
Answer:
The correct answer is B
Step-by-step explanation:
First, the question said that the shoes were $15 less than double the price of his pants. In algebra 2p would mean 2 multiplied by p so we know that C and D are wrong. Now $15 less than 2p would mean you have to subtract by 15, so now we have 2p-15. Since we haven't added in the amount of money the pair of pants cost, we have to use addition to add it in, and that adds to the equation making the equation 2p - 15 + p. So, the answer is B.
Answer:
x=133 y=-25
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll do both ways for you. So let's start with Substitution:
With the sub method, you have to set both equations equal to each other by setting them equal to the same variable. Since there is no coefficient in front of both x's in both equations, that variable will be easiest to solve for.
x + 2y = 83 & x + 5y = 8
Solve for x.
x = 83 - 2y & x = 8 - 5y
Once you have solved for x, set each equation equal to one another and solve for y now.
83 - 2y = 8 - 5y
Isolate all variables to one side:
83 = 8 - 3y
Now subtract the 8 to fully isolate the y variable:
75 = -3y
Divide by -3:
-25 = y Now that you have your first variable, plug it into one of the original equations and solve for x.
x + 2(-25) = 83
x - 50 = 83
x = 133
Now for the Elimination method. For this method you need to get rid of a variable by either subtracting/adding each equation together. Again, since you can subtract and x from both equations, you will be left with only the y variable to solve:
Put each equation on top of one another and subtract:
x + 2y = 83
- (x + 5y = 8)
The x's will cancel out:
(x - x) + (2y - 5y) = (83 - 8)
Simplify:
-3y = 75
Solve for y
y = -25
Then, plug y = -25 into one of the original equations:
x + 5(-25) = 8
Solve for x:
x - 125 = 8
x = 133
Hope this helps!
