Answer:
a = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the distance d using the distance formula and equate to 4
d = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, a)
d = 
= 
= 
= a + 1 then
a + 1 = 4 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
a = 3
X = B.......x - 17 = A
x + x - 17 = 87
2x - 17 = 87
2x = 87 + 17
2x = 104
x = 104/2
x = 52........so state B has 52 electoral votes
x - 17 = A
52 - 17 = A
35 = A.....so state A has 35 electoral votes
The question is incorrect because of the apparent contradiction the question makes.
First statement says that a quantity S is equal to quantity r.
The second statement says that S = 174r.
Moreover, the quantity C is not correctly linked with the equation. Please either correct the question or explain the ambiguity.
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle 2 is 2x+10
angle 4 is 4x+80
and from the figure we can understand that when we add these 2 equations
We get
6x+ 90= 180
6x = 180 - 90= 90
6x= 90
x = 90 ÷ 6 = 15
answer = 15
3 more than the produce of 12 and 4.
