Answer:

use the combination method

Step-by-step explanation:

     x - 2y = -13

+ 5 x + 2y = -17


since 2y is in both equations you cancel them out.


5x + x = 6x    

-2y + 2y = 0

-13 + (-17) = -30

put it back into the equation

6x + 0 = -30 or 6x = -30

6x ÷ 6 = x

-30 ÷ 6 = -5

x = -5

then plug into the equation x - 2y = -13 and 5x + 2y = -17


-5 - 2y = -13

-13 + 5 = -8

-2y = -8

y = 4


x = -5 and y = 4

The volume of the cube is 216 cubic units what is the side length
Naddik [55]

The side length is six units.

A cube has three measurements: length, width, and height

All the measurements have to be the same.

This allows you to cube root.

The cube root of 216 is 6.

The side length of the cube is 6 units.

Check:

6 * 6 * 6 = 216.

It is correct, so our answer is proven to be correct.

mart [117]
The ad cost for half page Saturday after discount is

15% of 380 = 0.15×380 = 57
380 - 57 = 323

The ad cost for half page Tuesday after discount is

15% of 330 = 0.15×330 = 49.5
330 - 49.5 = 280.5

Cost of the ads for 10 Saturdays and 10 Tuesdays

(10×323)+(10×280.5) = 3230+2805 = 6035

Angie and Becky each completed a separate proof to show that the measures of vertical angles AKG and HKB are equal. Who complete
Helga [31]

Answer:

Becky, because her justification for the second statement should be "definition of supplementary angles" rather than "angle addition postulate."

Step-by-step explanation:

Becky completed the proof incorrectly because her justification for the second statement is not totally correct.

Angle addition postulate does not really apply here, as the sum of 2 angles may not give you exactly 180°.

However, the second statement, m<AKG + m<GKB = 180° and m<GKB + m<HKB = 180°, can be justified by the "Definition of Supplementary Angles".

The sum of supplementary angles = 180°.

Therefore, Becky completed the proof incorrectly.
