Angles C and D are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180 degrees. So, if we add 8u-48 to 5u+46, we get 13u-2. We set that equal to 180, so 13u-2=180. Add the two, so 13u=182. Divide the 13, so u=14. To double check, plug in 14 to both expressions. 8(14)-48 and 5(14)+46. 8(14)-48 is 64. 5(14)+46 is 116. If you add 64+116, you get 180, which proves your answer right! So u= 14
Move the 3x over to the side with the 3 so it will become a -3x now you have 4y=-3x+3 now you have to remove the 4 from the y so now you have y=-3/4x+3/4 so you slope will be -3/4
It is different because you are doing a different method to complete the problem. It is the same because it ends up with the same answer, provided you complete the process correctly.
