SOlve the system of equations using substitution y=2x-10 y=4x-8

1 answer:

3 0

It should be,
4x-8=2x-10 because you substitute that for y.
Now you do,
4x-2x because you do the opposite of the positive 2x as you bring it to the other side.
That is,
2x-8=10 now you bring the 8 to the other side.
2x=10+8 I added it because I do the opposite and it is a negative 8 so I add.
2x+18 now divide
x=9 that's the answer.

Joaquin is constructing the perpendicular bisector of ab. What should be his first step?

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

D. Open the compass so that the distance from the two points of the compass is wider than half the length of $\over{AB}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

To construct a perpendicular for $\over{AB}$ , we must first take a compass & take the distance of its arms wider than half the length of $\over{AB}$ .

This is done in order to get two intersecting arcs in the top & bottom of $\over{AB}$ so that a perpendicular bisector can be drawn through it.

After two intersecting lines are drawn below & above $\over{AB}$ , draw a line joining these 2 points through their points of intersection. The point where it intersects $\over{AB}$ is the middle-most point of $\over{AB}$ & now a perpendicular bisector of $\over{AB}$ is constructed.

Question 8<br> Find the value of "X". Round to the nearest tenth.

jekas [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The intersecting chord theorem is expressed as;

7 * x = 4 * 14

7x = 56

Divide both sides by 7

7x/7 = 56/7

x = 8

Hence the value of x is 8
