So,
We'll just use A to represent both Jan and Mya's miles, since they ran the same number.
We have the equations:
1. Jan (J) = Mya (M)
2. Sara (S) = M - 8
3. 2A + S = 64
J = M
S = M - 8
We'll just use A to represent both J and M.
S = M - 8
We'll use Elimination by Substitution.
2A + A - 8 = 64
Collect Like Terms
3A - 8 = 64
Add 8 to both sides
3A = 72
Divide both sides by 3
A = 24
Since
A = J
and
A = M
and
J = M
then
J = 24
M = 24
Substitute
S = 24 - 8
S = 16
Check
24 + 24 + 16 = 64
64 = 64 This checks.
So,
J = 24
M = 24
S = 16
2x + 1
You can find that by switching the signs in the second set of parenthesis and then adding.
Twice a number (2x) decreased by 7 (- 7).
2x - 7
Two times a specfic number (x) subtracted by 7.
Answer:
71°
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle shown is an isosceles triangle. Isosceles triangles have two equal sides and two equal angles. When all 3 angles are added, it should have a sum of 180°. The tip of the triangle is the part of the triangle with the smallest degree/angle. So the two remaining angles are the same amount.
180°=38°+x+?
180°=38°+71°+71°
Both missing angles are the same degree, and when both are added to 38, it has a sum of 180. x is equal to 71°.
I don’t see the it the picture
