Answer:

When solving, Jacob did not distribute properly.

Explanation:

Let's talk about 5(x + 2). The correct distribution would be 5x + 10. Jacob distributed 5 into x correctly and got 5x, however he did not distribute the 5 into 2 properly. It should have been 10, however it stayed as 2.

Jacob should be more careful when distributing, and make sure to distribute into EVERY term inside the parentheses.

Answer:

If the lines are parallel, final form of his solution is

b) -5 = -5+1

Step-by-step explanation:

As the options are not given in the question and the question is incomplete, lets complete the question first.

Giovani solves a system of linear equations algebrically, he concludes that the lines are parallel. Which could be his final answer.

a) -5 = -5

b) -5 = -5+1

c) 11 = 11

d) 5 = 5

We know that parallel lines never cross at any point, there is no intersection point, which eventually means that there is no solution to the given equations. A system of equations which have no solution is called an inconsistent system of equations, and it graphs the parallel line.

From the options we can clearly see that only (b) has no solution, while all the rest of the options have solutions. Hence, -5 = -5+1 represents parallel lines.

Find the value of x
avanturin [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 56 + 81 = 137

2. The exterior angle theorem means that the 2 angles within a triangle that is on the opposite side of the angle outside the triangle could be added to find the angle that is outside of the triangle.

3. 56 and 81 are on the opposite side of the "x" outside the triangle which means that they could be added together which equals 137 degrees.

Hope this helps!
