Solve the system of equations 2x + 3y = 40 and –2x + 2y = 20.

1 answer:

7 0

2x + 3y = 40
+
-2x + 2y = 20
___________ Adding both equations

0x + 5y = 60
____________

5y = 60
y = 60/5 = 12

y = 12.

Since we have gotten y =12, and the only option with that is option D.

So we don't have to solve for x.

<span>The answer is D.</span>

Step-by-step explanation:

$\angle AOB$ and $\angle BOC$ are linear pair angles.

$\therefore m\angle AOB + m\angle BOC = 180° \\ \therefore \: 3x + 124 \degree + 6x + 29 \degree = 180° \\ \therefore \: 9x + 153 \degree = 180° \\ \therefore \: 9x = 180° - 153 \degree \\ \therefore \: 9x = 27 \degree \\ \therefore \:x = \frac{27 \degree }{9} \\ \huge \pink{ \boxed{\therefore \:x =3 \degree }} \\ \\ \because \: m\angle BOC =6x + 29 \degree \\ \therefore \: m\angle BOC =6 \times3 \degree + 29 \degree \\ \therefore \: m\angle BOC = 18\degree + 29 \degree \\ \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{\therefore \: m\angle BOC = 47 \degree }}$
