Answer:

  • smaller: -4
  • larger: -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Substituting the given variables into the word problem, we have two equations:

  3x +3y = -15

  6x -3y = -21

Adding these equations eliminates y:

  9x = -36

  x = -4 . . . . divide by 9

Using this in the first equation, we have ...

  3(-4) +3y = -15

  -4 +y = -5 . . . . . divide by 3

  y = -1 . . . . . . . . . add 4

The smaller number is -4; the larger is -1.

Answer: x=72, y=26


Step-by-step explanation:

Since a line is 180°, we can do:

2x+10+y=180

2x+y=170

Since a triangle is 180° also, we can do:

x+y+82=180

x+y=98

If we subtract x+y=98 from 2x+y=170, we get:

2x+y=170

x+y=98

x=72

If we insert x=72 into x+y=98, we get:

72+y=98

y=26

We can check our answer by inserting x=72 and y=26 into x+y+82=180

72+26+82=180

98+82=180

180=180

first do whats inside of the parenthesis.

> g(1), go to g(x) graph, go to x= 1 and your y-value is your new value (3)

> your new equation is now f(3)

→ go to f(x) graph, go to x= 3, your y-value is 5. Your final answer is 5.
