Answer:
y= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=42. We know that x plus y equals 42.
x=2y . We also know that x equals twice y.
2y+y=42. Since we know that x=2y, we're going to replace x with 2y from the original equation, simplified would be 3y=42.
y=14. 3y=42 simplified is y=14, this is because we divided both sides by 3 (since 3 and 42 are both divisible by 3) (btw divisible by 3 simply means that it can be divided by 3)
x+14=42. Now that we know what y equals, let's replace y with 14 from the original equation.
x=28. Now that we know that x=28 and y=14, we know that y is always x/2.
When x=-8, we divide it by 2 and get, -4.
Not absolutely positive as this was all mental math, but hope this helps! :)
I know we aren’t suppose to promote other websites but photomath will scan these questions and give you an explanation quicker than live ppl answering them. Or tiger algebra or math papa all of these are great for solving algebra problems :)
Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 2 triangles. The small triangle CDE has sides that are 8 and 20.
The big triangle CAB has sides 6+8 and 20 + x. Add the 6 and 8 which is 14. Create a proportion and cross multiply, divide, then solve for x.
