<span>2 square root (x - 5) = 2. 2^2 (x -5) = 2^2. 4(x - 5) = 4. 4x - 20 = 4. 4x = 24. x = 6. This solution is not extraneous, because extraneous solutions emerge from solving the problem but are not actually valid solutions for the initial problem. With rounding, this solution is valid for the initial problem.</span>

Answer:

x = 6, solution is not extraneous

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation 2 Square root of x minus 5 = 2

2\sqrt{x-5} =2. solve for x

Divide by 2 on both sides

\sqrt{x-5} =1

Take square on both sides to remove square root

x-5= 1

add 5 on both sides

x= 6

Now we plug in x=6 in our original equation

2\sqrt{6-5} =2

2 = 2 is true

So x= 6 satisfies our given equation

X=6 is not an extraneous solution

Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations. 3x+2y=16 2x-2y=4​
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

x = 4; y = 2  

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)  3x + 2y = 16

(2)  2x – 2y =  4        Add (1) and (2)

              5x =  20     Divide each side by 5

(3)            x =    4      Substitute (3) into (2)

  2×4 – 2y =    4

       8 - 2y =     4     Subtract 16 from each side

            -2y =   -4     Divide each side by -2

              y =     2

<em>Check: </em>

(1)  3×4 + 2×2 = 16

       12  +   4   = 16

                  16 = 16

(2) 2×4 – 2×2 = 4

      8    -    4   = 4

                   4 = 4

What does a supplementary angle look like
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

It has no special appearance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Any angle of measure 180° or less is supplementary to some angle. A supplementary angle is one that is the difference between 180° and the angle you have. That is, two supplementary angles total 180°.

__

Supplementary angles are readily identifiable in a number of geometries. Adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary; linear angles are supplementary. Same-side interior angles where a transversal crosses parallel lines are supplementary.
