Y=2x+3 X+2y=2 Solve by substitution please.

First you need to substitute Y (which equals 2x + 3) into the second equation.
X + 2(2X + 3) = 2
Solve the parenthesis by the distributive property: X + 4X + 6 = 2
Add the x's: 5X + 6 = 2
Subtract 6 from both sides: 5X = -4
Divide 5 from both sides: X=-4/5
Then, plug x into the first equation.
Y=2(-4/5) + 3
Y= -8/5 + 3
Y= 7/5

Then you can check your equations like this: 7/5 = 2(-4/5) + 3
7/5 = -8/5 + 3
7/5=7/5

Answer:

Rounded to the nearest tenth: $x=5.7$ in

Rounded to the nearest hundredth: $x=5.74$ in

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a right triangle with a given angle of 35°. We also have the opposite side of that angle, $x$ , and its hypotenuse 10 in. To find $x$ , we are using the trig function that relates the opposite side with the hypotenuse; in other words, the sine trig function.
