Answer:
First number is -2.5
Second number 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Four times the first number minus three times the second number is 2.
To represent this statement, 4x -3y =2
Two times the first number increased by three times the second is 10.
To represent thsi statement, 2x+ 3y = 10
4x - 3y = 2
2x + 3y =10
4x - 2x = 2x
2x = -5
x= -2.5
The first number is -2.5
By using Substitution
2x + 3y = 10
2(-2.5) + 3y = 10
-5 + 3y = 10
3y = 10 +5
3y =15
y = 5
The second number is 5
....To check my answer
-5 + 15 = 10
Answer:
JL = 54
Step-by-step explanation:
JL = JK + KL
JK = KL
8x+11 =14x-1
12 = 6x
x = 2
substitute for x:
8(2)+11 + 14(2)-1 = JL
JL = 16+11+28-1
JL = 54

Answer:
y=x-3
Step-by-step explanation:
slope=4+2/-5-1=-1
perpendicular slope= negative reciprical=1
y=x+b
midpoint on perpendicular bisector= (-5+1/2, 4-2/2)=(-2,1)
substitution-2=1+b, b=-3
y=x-3
