Answer: 2=x

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-1 + 2x-1 = 5x

First combine like terms together

4x-1 + 2x-1 is 4x+2x-1-1

4x+2x-1-1 =6x-2

4x-1 + 2x-1=6x-2

6x-2=5x

The oppisite of 6x is -6x so -6x on both sides of equation to keep it balanced

6x-6x-2=5x-6x

0-2=-1x

-2=-1x

Divide both sides of the equation by -1 since -1 is being multiplied by x and the oppisite of multiply is divide

-2/-1=-1x=-1

2=x

Help will give braniest answer to person who is correct find the degree measure of each angle in the triangle
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Angle I = 90 degrees

Angle J = 61 degrees

Angle K = 29 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle I is given

We know that the angles in all triangles add up to 180. Since we are given that angle I is equal to 90 degrees, we now know that angle J + angle K = 90 degrees:

(5x+26) + (2x+15) = 90

Solve for X:

7x + 41 = 90

7x = 49

x = 7

Angle J =  (5x + 26) = (5(7) + 26) = 61

Angle K = (2x + 15) = (2(7) + 15) = 29

Checking your work: 61 + 29 = 90

NEED HALP!!! Find the ordered pair $(s,t)$ that satisfies the system
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

(-8/7 ; 5/7)

Step-by-step explanation:

5t + 1/2s = 3 - - - (1)

3t - 6s = 9 - - - - - (2)

Multiply (1) by 12 and (2) by 1

Add the result to eliminate s

60t + 6s = 36

3t - 6s = 9

____________

63t = 45

t = 45 / 63

t = 5/7

Put t = 5/7 in either (1) or (2) to obtain the value of s

3(5/7) - 6s = 9

15/7 - 6s = 9

-6s = 9 - 15/7

-6s = (63 - 15)/7

-6s = 48/7

s = 48/7 * - 1/6

s = - 8/7
