Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a. To solve for "y" you want to isolate the variable. What this means is you want to keep "y" on its own. To do this first we will subtract 2x from the equation making 4y = 36 - 2x. Next, we will get rid of 4 to do this divide 4 from both sides. y = (36 - 2x)/4
*I have to go in a bit so sry for no explenation*
b. h = 2a/b
c. x = 1/4y + -3/4
Answer:
x = 17
y = 8
QPR = 35º
QRP = 60º
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 1 = x + 18
Subtract x from both sides
x + 1 = 18
Subtract 1 from both sides
x = 17
QPR = 2x + 1
QPR = 2(17) + 1
QPR = 35º
-------------------------------
8y - 4 = 4y + 28
Subtract 4y from both sides
4y - 4 = 28
Add 4 to both sides
4y = 32
Divide both sides by 4
y = 8
QPR = 8y - 4
QRP = 8(8) - 4
QRP = 60º
Answer:
-45
Step-by-step explanation:
The mistake is in step 3:
I: −2m =−12 − 2n
II: 2m = 8 + 8n
the student set both right sides of the equations equal (−12 − 2n = 8 + 8n), but the left sides aren't equal: first equation has -2m, second has +2m so the signs of one of the equations must be inverted first
