The equations would be:
x=18+3y
x+y=54
(substitute x in the second equation with 18+3y)
18+3y+y=54
(combine like terms and solve for y)
y=9
(plug y into the second equation to find x)
x+9=54
x=45
Answer:
The missing reason in the proof is transitive property
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Statement </u> <u>Reason </u>
1. x ∥ y w is a transversal 1. given
2. ∠2 ≅ ∠3 2. def. of vert. ∠s
3. ∠2 ≅ ∠6 3. def. of corr. ∠s
4. ∠3 ≅ ∠6 4. ??????????
From the statements 2 and 3
The previous proved statement to make use of the transitive property reason or proof
∴ 4. ∠3 ≅ ∠6 4. transitive property
Note: the transitive property states that: If a = b and b = c, then a = c.
The 6 in 216 is in the ones place.
