Subtract 16 from both sides
x + 16 = 3,
x + 16 - 16 = 3 - 16,
x = -13

Another way to find the answer:

Keep trying numbers until something works!

Is x -19?
No, because -19 + 16 = -3, and not 3.

Is x -18?
No, because -18 + 16 = -2, and not 3.

Is x -17?
No, because -17 + 16 = -1, and not 3.

Is x -16?
No, because -16 + 16 = 0, and not 3.

Is x -15?
No, because -15 + 16 = 1, and not 3.

Is x -14?
No, because -14 + 16 = 2, and not 3.

Is x -13?
Yes, because -13 + 16 = 3

Quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in the circle. Which sentence is true?

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

A) A and B are supplementary

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

For any inscribed quadrilateral in the circle , opposite angles will be supplementary

In this problem

Angle A and Angle B are supplementary angles

$m\angle A+m\angle C=180^o$

Angle B and Angle D are supplementary angles

$m\angle B+m\angle D=180^o$

therefore

<u><em>The sentences that are true </em></u>

A) A and B are supplementary

A linear function is described as:

https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f(x)%20%3D%20ax%20%2B%20b

When the value of x = 0, then you're left with

https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f(x)%20%3D%20b

In this question, the speed of sound is the linear function while the temperature is the independent variable. When T = 0, you're left with

https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S(0)%20%3D%20331.4

Which means the speed of sound in air when temperature is 0°C is 331.4m/s.

Put the following equation of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all fractions.

jenyasd209 [6]

3x + 6y = -24

first you would start by subtracting 3x from both sides which would give you
6y = -3x - 24

then you divide everything by 6 and you’re left with
y = -1/2 - 4
