Answer:
3x+2=16
Step-by-step explanation:
Idk if ya still need it or if this will help but this is what i put for mine
Concepts that I had previously learned about are quite important because math goes hand and hand. if you try to skip something and go ahead you'll most likely get confused because there could of been something highly important to that would help you understand whats ahead. in the previous unit it tells you about triangles and their description like a right triangle-90 degree angle and where legs and hypotenuse is located, this unit has had a ton about right triangles.
If we add the equations it looks like
-5y + 8x + 5y + 2x = -18+58
so 10x=40
so x=40/10=4
now let's replace x by 4 in the second equation
5y +2*4=58
5y=58-2*4=58-8=50
so y=50/5=10
so (x, y) = (2, 10)
Answer:
boys + girls = 45 -------(1)
There boys 17 more than girls, boys = girls + 17 ----------(2)
substitute (2) in (1)
girls + 17 + girls = 45
2 x girls + 17 = 45
2 x girls = 45 - 17
2 x girls = 28
girls = 14
substitute in (2): boys = girls + 17 = 14 + 17 = 31
option D
Write and solve an equation, as follows:
-7y + 5(3+ny) = 3y + 15. We are to find the value of 'n.'
-7y + 15 + 5ny = 3y + 15.
Subtracting 15 from both sides, we get -7y + 5ny = 3y
Grouping like terms, we get 5ny = 3y + 7y = 10y
Dividing both sides by 5y, we get n = 2 (answer)
