Answer:
x = 3
y = 4
hey, I am not 100% sure of the certainty of my answers, I am using what I remember about that topic but I do not know if it is right or wrong, I hope I have helped you, I did what I could.
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x + 2y = 23
5x + 2y = -17
X solution:
(you cancel the y)
-3x = 23
5x = -17
(you combine all the values above with those below)
2x = 6
(solve the ecuation normaly)
x = 6/2 = 3
Y solution:
(you replace the x)
-3(3) + 2y = 23
5(3) + 2y = -17
-9 + 2y = 23
15 + 2y = -17
(you combine all the values above with those below)
6 + 4y = 6
(solve the ecuation normaly)
4y = 0
y = 4
(I do not really know if the answer here is 0 or 4 since when passing the 4 to divide it would be 0/4 and I do not understand very well how that is solved)
Answer: there are no solutions

x = 64°
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallelogram is a quadrilateral with the opposite sides parallel to each other. Opposite sides are equal in length. Opposite angles are equal in a parallelogram.
For the figure to be a parallelograms, since opposite angle are equal
12y + 8 = 2x
2x - 12y = 8 ...................(i)
2x + 5y + 2 = 180(supplementary angle)
2x + 5y = 178..............(ii)
combine the equation
2x - 12y = 8 ...................(i)
2x + 5y = 178..............(ii)
make x subject of the formula in equation (i)
2x - 12y = 8 ...................(i)
2x = 8 + 12y
x = 4 + 6y
put the value of x in equation (ii)
2x + 5y = 178..............(ii)
2(4 + 6y) + 5y = 178
8 + 12y + 5y = 178
8 + 17y = 178
17y = 170
divide both sides by 17
y = 170/17
y = 10°
Put the value of y in equation (i)
2x - 12y = 8 ...................(i)
2x - 12(10) = 8
2x - 120 = 8
2x = 128
x = 128/2
x = 64°
Complete question :
Mr. Nelson lost one of his students' test papers. He knows that the other 4 students scored as follows: 60, 62, 56, 57. He also knows that the average score is 59.2. What is the score on the missing paper?
Answer:
61
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Total number of students = 4 + 1 missing = 5
Score on the four avaliable papers = 60, 62, 56, 57
Average score of the 5 papers = 59.2
Score on missing paper :
Sum of each score / number of papers
Sum of each score = sum of available scores + missing score
Let missing score = m
(60 + 62 + 56 + 57 + m) = 235 + m
Recall:
Average = total sum / number of observations
Hence,
59.2 = (235 + m) / 5
59.2 × 5 = 235 + m
296 = 235 + m
m = 296 - 235
m = 61
Missing score = 61
