Answer:
x = 4
y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 4y = 36
3x + 4(-1/2x + 8) = 36
3x - 2x + 32 = 36
x + 32 = 36
x + 32 - 32 = 36 - 32
x = 4
y = -1/2x + 8
y = -1/2(4) + 8
y = -2 + 8
y = 6
Cross Multiply by 'x - 5'
Hence
y(x - 5) = 4 -3x
xy - 5y = 4 - 3x
Move all the terms containing an 'x' to one side of the equals and all the others to the opposite side.
xy + 3x = 4 + 5y
Factor out 'x'
x(y + 3) = 4 + 5y
'Cross' divide by 'y + 3'
x = ( 4 + 5y) / (y + 3 )
'x' is now the subject.
Answer: x= 30
Step-by-step explanation:
These are corresponding angles which means they are equal. (2x+25) = (3x-5). Subtract 2x from both sides. 25 = x-5. Add 5 to both sides. 30 = x
The answer in a fraction is 2/5 , the answer in decimal form is 0.4 !
Since the lines a and b are parallel, <4 and <8 are of the same measure. To find <8, we can simply subtract the measure of <7 from 180 degrees.
<4 = <8 = 180 - <7 = 180- 114 = 66 degrees
