5x + 4y = 32 ⇒ 45x + 36y = 288
9x - 1y = 33 ⇒ <u>45x - 5y = 165</u>

41 41
y = 3
5x + 4(3) = 32
5x + 12 = 32

x = 4
(x, y) = (4, 3)
All you have to do here is replace f(x) with x + 2 and h(x) with 1/x-1.
It's like plugging in a number for x, but instead you are plugging in a whole function instead of just a number. Whenever you are pluging something in, whatever it is, make sure it is in parentheses: ( ) always!
Until your understanding of algebra becomes stronger.
2f(x)-hx
First lets plug in x + 2 for f(x). It's gonna look like this:
2(x + 2) - h(x)
Notice how I put x + 2 in parentheses next to the 2, you
a l w a y s want to do this. Now we just do the same for h(x):
2(x + 2) - (1/x - 1)
And that's it. That's all you have to do.
It is always possible for the product of a rational number and irrational number to result in a rational value.
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
(please verify) if line segment LM is congruent to line segment PN; then
9x - 25 = 5x + 7; subtract 5x from both sides
4x - 25 = 7; add 25 to both sides
4x = 32; divide by 4
x = 8
A secant line always contains a chord.
