Answer: $x=15$

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

Add 18 to each side of the equation

$-18 + 18 + x = -3 + 18$

Combine like terms: -18 + 18 = 0

$0 + x = -3 + 18\\x = -3 + 18$

Combine like terms: -3 + 18 = 15

$x=15$

What is the solution to the system of equations below? y = one-half x minus 4 and y = negative 2 x minus 9 (–2, –5) (–2, –3) (2,

Maurinko [17]

We have been given a system of equations $y=\frac{1}{2}x-4$ and $y=-2x-9$ . We are asked to find the solution of our given system of equations.

To solve our system of equations, we will equate both equations as:

$\frac{1}{2}x-4=-2x-9$

$\frac{1}{2}x-4+4=-2x-9+4$

$\frac{1}{2}x=-2x-5$

$\frac{1}{2}x+2x=-2x+2x-5$

$\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{4}{2}x=-5$

$\frac{1+4}{2}x=-5$

$\frac{5}{2}x=-5$

$\frac{2}{5}\cdot \frac{5}{2}x=-5\cdot \frac{2}{5}$

$x=-2$

Upon substituting $x=-2$ in equation $y=-2x-9$ , we will get:

$y=-2(-2)-9$

$y=4-9$

$y=-5$

Therefore, the solution of our given system of equations would be $(-2,-5)$ and option A is the correct choice.

Two angles are supplementary. The larger angle is three times the smaller

melomori [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

45°, 135°

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of the two angles is 1+3 = 4 times the smaller angle. The total is 180°, so the smaller angle is

180°/4 = 45°

The larger angle is 3×45° = 135°

The two angles are 45° and 135°.
