Let the units digit = x

Let the 10s digit = y

Equations

10y + x - 2 = 8 * (x + y)              (1)

10y + x - 54 = 10x + y               (2)

Equation 1

10y + x - 2 = 8 * (x + y)    Remove the brackets on the right

10y + x - 2 = 8x + 8y       Subtract 8y from both sides

10y - 8y + x - 2 = 8x        Subtract 8x from both sides

2y + x - 8x - 2 = 0            Combine

2y - 7x - 2 = 0                  (3)

Equation 2

10y + x - 54 = 10x + y      Subtract 10x

10y - 9x - 54 = y              Subtract y from both sides.

9y - 9x - 54 = 0               Divide by 9

y - x - 6 =  0                     Multiply by 2

2y - 2x - 12 = 0                (4)

Solution

Subtract (3) - (4)

2y - 7x - 2 = 0

2y - 2x - 12 = 0

- 5x + 10 = 0      Subtract 10 from both sides.

- 5x = - 10          Divide by - 5

  x = 2

Use (4) to find y

2y - 2x - 12 = 0         Let x =2

2y - 2(2) - 12 = 0      Remove the brackets

2y - 4 - 12 = 0           Combine

2y - 16 = 0                 Add 16 to both sides.

2y = 16                      Divide by 2

y = 8

Answer 82

I'll leave the check to you, but the answer of 82 is correct.

1. PLEASE HELP. Consider the matrices-
Alex

Answer:

A - B  =  [  -1  3  ]

             [ -6  2  ]

             [ -4 -10 ]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Matrix A and Matrix B have the same size, then we can simply perform the operation of subtraction on each position within the matrices to get the resulting subtracted matrix.

A =  [  4  7  ]              B =  [  5  4  ]

      [ -3  8  ]                     [  3  6  ]

      [ -5 -2  ]                    [  -1  8  ]

A - B  =  [ (4 - 5)  (7 - 4) ]

             [ (-3 - 3) (8 - 6) ]

             [ (-5 - -1) (-2 - 8) ]

A - B  =  [  -1  3  ]

             [ -6  2  ]

             [ -4 -10 ]

Cheers.

What is the equation of the function that is graphed as line b?
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

so taking the slope from the points (0,1) and (2,2)

we get slope= 2-1/2-0=1/2 the y intercept is one

so y=mx+b(where m is the slope and b is the y intercept)

we get= y=1/2x+1

which is C

if my answer helps please mark as brainliest.

(05.02) PLEASE ACTUALLY ANSWER AND EXPLAIN WELL!! :)
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

  • x = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Straight angle is equal to 180°

Angle x, 60° and 80° form a straight angle.

<u>Then we have following equation to solve for x:</u>

  • x + 60° + 80° = 180°
  • x + 140° = 180°
  • x = 180° - 140°
  • x = 40°
