Solve the top equation for x and then substitute that into the bottom equation and solve for y:
Top equation: subtract 4 from both sides to get x = y - 4
Substitution and simplify:
y = 4(y - 4) - 10
y = 4y - 16 - 10
y = 4y - 26
-3y = -26
y = 26/3 or 8 1/3 or 8.333 (those are all the same but in different forms)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Add 6 to both sides.
2) Simplify 21 + 6 to 27.
3) Divide both sides by 9.
4) Simplify 27/9 to 3.

Answer:
16 apples, 20 pears
Step-by-step explanation:
36+4=40
So 40/2= 20 or an even amount of both apples and pears
20-4= 16 ~Original amount of apples
36-16=20 ~Amount of pears
<h3>
Answer: 161 degrees</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
Line AE is a tangent while line AU is a secant. The angle formed by the secant and tangent lines connects with the arcs through this formula
secant tangent angle = (larger arc - smaller arc)/2
More specifically, we can say:
angle EAI = (arc EU - arc IE)/2
42 = ( (7m+5) - (3m-1) )/2
42*2 = (7m+5) - (3m-1)
84 = 7m+5 - 3m+1
84 = 4m+6
4m+6 = 84
4m = 84-6
4m = 78
m = 78/4
m = 39/2
m = 19.5
Use this value of m to compute each arc
- arc IE = 3m-1 = 3*19.5-1 = 57.5 degrees
- arc EU = 7m+5 = 7*19.5+5 = 141.5 degrees
Let's say arc IU is some unknown number x. It must add to the other two arc measures to form 360 degrees, which is a full circle.
(arc IU) + (arc IE) + (arc EU) = 360
x + 57.5 + 141.5 = 360
x + 199 = 360
x = 360-199
x = 161
The measure of minor arc IU is 161 degrees
