Answer:
x=0
Step-by-step explanation:
solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable. which got me x=0
5x + 2y = 7....multiply by -3
-2x + 6y = 9
----------------
-15x - 6y = -21 (result of multiplying by -3)
-2x + 6y = 9
---------------add
-17x = - 12
x = 12/17 or 0.7
5x + 2y = 7
5(12/17) + 2y = 7
60/17 + 2y = 7
2y = 7 - 60/17
2y = 119/17 - 60/17
2y = 59/17
y = 59/17 * 1/2
y = 59/34 or 1.7 when rounded <====
Answer:
y = 90°
Step-by-step explanation:
The left side base angle of the triangle and the angle of 110° form a straight angle and are supplementary, thus
base angle = 180° - 110° = 70°
The right base angle is also 70° , thus the triangle is isosceles
The line segment from the vertex is a perpendicular bisector, hence
y = 90°
Speed money = 3/5 * 240 = 720/5 = $144
Saved money = $240 - $144 = $96
Hope this helps!
