Because of rules of geometry we know that a+b=180 degrees so we can add the equations together and set that equal to 180 and solve
6x-48+4x+38=180
subtract 38 from both sides and add 48 to both sides
then add like terms
10x=170
and divide by 10 to get 
x=17

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

9m - m + 3 = -2(m + 1)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>m</u></em>

  1. Combine like terms:                    8m + 3 = -2(m + 1)
  2. Distribute -2:                                8m + 3 = -2m - 2
  3. Add 2m on both sides:                10m + 3 = -2
  4. Isolate <em>m</em> term:                             10m = -5
  5. Isolate <em>m</em>:                                      m = -1/2

Which of the following can be represented by the equation y = 2x?
KatRina [158]

Answer:

B) Graph B only.

Step-by-step explanation:

Table A is not correct, because:

In Y = 2X, replacing each row:
3 =/= 2 x 2
6 =/= 2 x 4
9 =/= 2 * 6

Table B is correct, because:
When Y is 2, X is 1 which is equal to 2x1.
When Y is 4, X is 2 which is equal to 2x2.

You purchased concentrated cleaner that must be diluted (watered down)
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The volume of the concentrated 80 gallons mixture is 20 gallons

The volume of water in the 80 gallons mixture is 60 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The content of Container A = The cleaner

The concentration of the cleaner = 20% solution

The content of Container B = Pure water

The concentration of the desired solution = 5%

The volume of the required solution = 80 gallons

Let x represent the volume of the concentrated solution and y represent the volume of water in the 80 gallons mixture

Therefore, we have;

20/100 × x + y×0 = 5/100×80

x + y = 80

y = 80 - x

20/100 × x + (80 - x)×0 = 5/100×80

0.2·x = 4

x = 4/0.2 = 20

x = 20 gallons

y = 80 - x = 80 - 20 = 60

y = 60 gallons

The volume of the concentrated solution (80 gallons mixture) = x = 20 gallons

The volume of water in the 80 gallons mixture = y = 60 gallons.
