Answer:

x = 0, y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving a system of equations using substitution requires one side to be equal to a variable present in the equation, in this case x or y. We should simplify the equation using elimination before substituting to reduce the chance of error.

In order to use the elimination method, you have to create variables that have the same coefficient—then you can eliminate them. These equations arew already aligned for us.

                  3x - 10y=-70

             -<u>   4x +9y = 63</u>

                  -x + y = 7

Now, for substitution, the equation must be set to a variable.

                  -x + y = 7

                  y = x + 7

Next, plug the equation in where applicable in another equation.

                  4x +9(x + 7) = 63

                  4x + 9x + 63 = 63

                  13x = 0

                  x = 0

The final step of substitution is to plug the known variable into an equation to find the other variable.

                  3(0) - 10y=-70

                  0 - 10y = -70

                  10y = 70

                  y = 7

I guarantee you this answer is correct, I worked it out using other methods and graphing prior to submitting this answer.

Answer:

x = 0 , y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 10y =  - 70..............(1) \\ 4x + 9y = 63...................(2) \\ (1) \times 4 \\ 12x - 40y =  - 280...........(3) \\ (2) \times 3 \\ 12x + 27y = 189...........(4) \\ (4) - (3) \\ 67y = 469 \\  \\ y =  \frac{469}{67}  \\ y = 7 \\ put \: y = 7 \: into \: (1) \\ 3x - 10(7) =  - 70 \\ 3x - 70 =  - 70 \\ 3x =  - 70 + 70 \\ 3x = 0 \\ x =  \frac{0}{3}  \\ x = 0

Answer:

x = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ∠SRT ≅ ∠STR

Then ∠STR = 20

∠STR  and ∠STU are what you call supplementary angles. This means that the sum of their measurements is equal to 180° because they form a straight line.

So if:

∠STR + ∠STU = 180°

m∠STU = 4x

m∠STR = 20

Then:

4x + 20° = 180°

Now we solve for x:

4x + 20 = 180\\\\Subtract\;20\;from\;both\;sides\;of\;the\;equation\\\\4x + 20 - 20 = 180 - 20\\4x = 160\\\\Divide\;both\;sides\;of\;the\;equation\;by\;4\\\\\dfrac{4x}{4}=\dfrac{160}{4}\\\\x = 40

x = 40°

If ∠WOZ and ∠WOX are supplementary angles and ∠WOX and ∠XOY are complementary angles, then what is the value of x and m∠XOY?
omeli [17]

Answer:

D.x = 6; m∠XOY = 18°

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles add to 180 and complementary angles add to 90

∠WOZ + ∠WOX = 180

108 + ∠WOX = 180

∠WOX + ∠XOY = 90

∠WOX + 3x = 90

∠WOX  = 90 -3x

Replace WOX in the first equation

108 + ∠WOX = 180

108 + 90 -3x = 180

Combine like terms

198 -3x = 180

Subtract 198 from each side

-3x = 180-198

-3x = -18

Divide by -3

-3x/-3 = -18/-3

x = 6

∠XOY  = 3x = 3*6 = 18
