She should have added 2 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 2.
2x -2 = 14
Add 2 to both sides:
2x = 16
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 8
1. All you have to do to find the area of the figure. IS first find the area of the rectangle. This is easy because all you have to do is base times height.
22 x 17 = 374
Now to find the area of the triangle all you have to do is do base times height like a rectangle, but then divide it by 2 afterwords.
19 x 12 = 228 ÷ 2 = 114.
Now add the two area's together:
374 + 114 = 488.
Just do the same with the one below, I've altered the pic a bit to make it easier.
Answer:
The answer is 148.6666667
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Set a linear quation

2) Cross multiply

3) Multiple the right side

4) Divide both side by 15

5) Solve the linear equation

Answer:
0.10x + 0.13y = 10780
x + y = 100000
x = 74000 --------------10%
y = 26000 --------------13% (more risky)
