Solve x − 2y = 3 for x.

Mathematics

Answer:

x = 3 + 2y

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) First, you have to isolate x, in order to isolate x you have to bring x to the end of the equation.

2) Then, you have to add 2y to both sides of the equation.  

Another way you can think of this is:

1) If you add 3 + 2y you would figure out the answer because if you want to find x for a subtraction equation, you can add the answer to the equation with the number.

For example, x - 20 = 10, now to figure this equation out, you can either isolate the x, or you can add the answer in the equation with the remaining number in the equation.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x=2y+3

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

x-2y=3

And we want to solve for x. In other words, we want to isolate the x-variable.

So, add 2y to both sides of the equation.

(x-2y)+2y=(3)+2y

On the left, the 2y cancel. Simplify the right:

x=2y+3

And we're done!

What else would need to be congruent to show that triangle EFG=~ triangle HIJ by SSS?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to prove congruency using SSS, we need to prove that all three pairs of sides are congruent.

We are already given that EF ≅ HI and that FG ≅ IJ.

Therefore, the last bit of information we need to prove congruency using SSS is that EG ≅ HJ.

Hence, our answer is C.
