Answer:

<h2>B.  ST = 2</h2><h2 />

Step-by-step explanation:

|<--------------  10 --------------------->|

S-------------------T--------------------U

            X-6              2X - 8

FIND: ST

SOLUTION:

ST + TU = SU

x - 6 + 2x - 8 = 10

combine like terms:

3x - x = 10 + 8 + 6

x = 24/3

x = 8

plugin the value of x= 8 into the ST = x - 6

ST = x - 6

ST = 8 - 6

ST = 2

proof:

x - 6 + 2x - 8 = 10

8 - 6 + 2(8) - 8 = 10

10 = 10 ---OK

Determine whether 2x+2y= -6 is a function?
Archy [21]

Answer:

It's a function because when you simplify it becomes y=-x-3. the only reason it wouldn't be a function would be if the equation were to be x = a random number that is not a variable. The equation would not pass the vertical line test which is the requirement to see if an equation is a function.

Simply put, it's a function.
