To find the distance between any numbers on the number line, subtract the smaller number from the bigger number.

73 - (-54) = x
Since subtracting negative numbers is the same as adding positive numbers ('two dashes (-) makes a plus sign' might be easier to remember) we can write:
73 + 54 = x
Solve
73 + 54 = 127

The answer is D

Hopefully this helps! If you have anymore questions or don't understand, feel free to DM me!! :)

The answer is d because when you go from positive to negative you add the positive number to get to zero and than add the number you are getting to make sense?

Which equation shows a valid, practical step in solving
lesantik [10]

For this case we have the following equation:

\sqrt [4] {2x-8} + \sqrt [4] {2x + 8} = 0

If we subtract both sides of the equation \sqrt [4] {2x + 8} we have:

\sqrt [4] {2x-8} = - \sqrt [4] {2x + 8}

To eliminate the radical we raise both sides of the equation to the fourth power:

(\sqrt [4] {2x-8}) ^ 4 = (- \sqrt [4] {2x + 8}) ^ 4

Answer:

Option D

Applying parallel line postulate twice

36degree=3x degree +2y degree

126 degrees=12 x degree + 2y degree

So, the two equations are:

3x + 2y = 36

and

12x + 2y = 126

Eliminate x to solve for y

-(3x + 2y)= -(36)

-3x - 2y = -36

Combine the equations

(-3x - 2y)+ (12x + 2y) = (-36) + (126)

-3x -2y + 12x + 2y = -36 + 126

9x = 90

x = 10

Plug value of x back into to the equations to solve for y

3(10) + 2y = 36

30 + 2y = 36

2y =6

y = 3

Optional

Plug x into the other equation to check for error

12(10) +2y = 126

120 + 2y =126

2y = 6

y = 3

Answer:

B. (-2,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x+5y = 21

x=2y-8

Substitution

-3(2y-8)+5y =21

-6y+24+5y=21

-y+24=21

-y=-3

y=3

Plug-in other equation

2*3-8=x

6-8=x

x=-2
