Answer: x = -1 , y = 8✔️

Step-by-step explanation:

-12x - 2y = -4 } Equation 1

6x + 3y = 18 } Equation 2

<em>We can extract the value of x from the equation 2: </em>

6x + 3y = 18 } Equation 2

6x = 18 - 3y

x = (18 - 3y)/6 } Equation 2

<em>Then we can substitute this value of x in equation 1: </em>

-12x - 2y = -4 } Equation 1

-12·(18 - 3y)/6 - 2y = -4

-36 + 6y -2y = -4

4y = -4 + 36

4y = 32

y = 32/4 = 8

<em>Now we can substitute this value of y in equation 2: </em>

x = (18 - 3y)/6 } Equation 2

x = (18 - 3·8)/6 = (18 -24)/6 = -6/6 = -1

Answer: x = -1 , y = 8✔️

<h3>Check </h3>

<em>We can check this result by substituting these values of x and y into the equations: </em>

-12x - 2y = -4 } Equation 1  

-12·(-1) - 2·8 = -4 ► 12 - 16 = -4✔️ checked!

6x + 3y = 18 } Equation 2

6·(-1) + 3·8 = 18 ► -6 + 24 = 18✔️ checked!

Three angles of quadrilateral ABCD have measures 66, 95 and 114. what is the value of x?
vampirchik [111]
To find the value of x, assuming it is the value of the missing angle in the quadrilateral, you need to know that the sum of the angles in any quadrilateral equals 360.

360 - (66 + 95 + 114) = 85 degrees.

x = 85 degrees

Remember this:

Denominator multiplies with the whole number(number on the side) The sum of that plus the numerator will give you the value for the numerator in the improper fraction. The denominator will stay the same.
Now try it on your own!

3. Given AB with coordinates A(-4,5) and B(12,13). Find the horizontal distance and the vertical
SCORPION-xisa [38]

The required distance would be 17.88 units coordinates A(-4,5) and B(12,13) and the horizontal distance is 16 units and the vertical distance is 8 units from A to B which are determined by the graphing method.

<h3>What is the distance between two points?</h3>

The distance between two points is defined as the length of the line segment between two places representing their distance.

Given AB with coordinates A(-4,5) and B(12,13).

The formula of the distance between two points is A(x₁, y₁) and B(x₂, y₂) is given by: d (A, B) = √ (x₂ – x₁)² + (y₂ – y₁) ².

x₁ = -4, y₁ = 5

x₂ = 12, y₂ = 13

distance = √ (12 – (-4))² + (13 – 5)²

distance = √ (12 + 4)² + (8)²

distance = √ (16)² + (8)²

distance = √ (256 + 64)

distance = √320

distance = 17.88 units

The horizontal distance is 16 units and the vertical distance is 8 units from A to B which are determined by the graphing method.
