Let's say x to the first number and y to the second one.
We add them : x+y=9
Then we substract them : x-y=3
Now we add the equations: 

(x+y)+(x-y)=9+3\\ x+x+y-y=12\\ 2x=12\\ \\ x=\frac { 12 }{ 2 } \\ \\ x=6

and finally rewrite the equation:

6+y=9\\ y=9-6\\ y=3\\ \\ x=6\quad and\quad y=3

X, y - the numbers

The sum of the two numbers is 9.
x+y=9

If one number is subtracted from the other, the result is 3.
x-y=3

Solve the system of equations:
x+y=9 \\
\underline{x-y=3} \\
x+x=9+3 \\
2x=12 \ \ \ |\div 2 \\
x=6 \\ \\
x+y=9 \\
6+y=9 \ \ \ |-6 \\
y=3

The numbers are 6 and 3.

Which are these are polygons
oee [108]
<h3>3 Answers: B, C, F</h3>

Each of these are closed figures formed by straight line segments. Think of fencing in an area (not necessarily a rectangle) using various straight fence sections. The length of each section does not have to be the same.

Side notes:

  • Choice A is not a polygon because the figure is not closed.
  • Choice D is not a polygon because it is not composed of line segments only. Choice D is an ellipse instead.
  • Choice E is not a polygon due to the curved portion.

Area for rectangle in the coordinate plane. IXL Geometry help pls !
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The co-ordinates of the rectangle are:

A (8, 6)

B (-4, -10)

C (-8, -7)

D (4, 9)

The Area of Rectangle is Given by: <em>length x breadth </em>= AB x BC

Lengths of AB and BC can be found by distance formula

<em>length</em>(AB) = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1} )^{2} + (y_{2} - y_{1} )^{2}} = \sqrt{(-4-8)^{2} + (-10-6)^{2}} = 20

Similarly,

<em>length</em>(BC) = 5

Area of Rectangle = AB x BC = 20 x 5 = 100 square units

I need help with help on the one with the pink circle
podryga [215]

Answer:

15°

Step-by-step explanation:

The line in the middle of the triangle divides it into two triangles.  These two triangles are equal.  You can see this because the given angle (90°) is equal for both sides, and the bottom sides (23) are also equal to each other.  

Since the triangles are equal, this means that the given angle of 75° also applies to the other side.  The total degrees a triangle can have is 180°.  Use the given angles to solve for the unknown angle.

75° + 90° + x = 180°

165° + x = 180°

x = 15°

The angle measure will be 15°.
