X = y + 1...so sub in y + 1 for x in the other equation

4x + 3y = -31
4(y + 1) + 3y = -31...distribute thru the parenthesis
4y + 4 + 3y = -31...subtract 4 from both sides
4y + 3y = -31 - 4....combine like terms
7y = - 35...divide both sides by 7
y = -35/7
y = - 5

now sub -5 in for y in either of the original equations to find x
x = y + 1
x = -5 + 1
x = -4

solution is (-4,-5)

M < PQS + m < RQS = 180° because they are supplementary angles.

Therefore:
(3x + 3) + (x + 19) = 180

3x — 3 + x + 19 = 180

4x + 16 = 180

Subtract 16 from both sides

4x — 16 = 180 — 16

4x = 164

Divide both sides by 4:

4x/4 = 164/4

x = 41

Therefore, the correct answer is x = 41

Izzie recently took a math test where each correct answer (a) on the main part of the test was worth 8.3 points. She also correc
Temka [501]

Answer:

12 correct answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Since in the main part she scores 8.3 points for each question she answers correctly, we can assume that the number of questions she answers correctly=a

Therefor, the total number of points she achieved in the math test in the main part alone can be expressed as:

Total score(main part)=8.3×a=8.3a points

She also solved a bonus question worth=11 points

Consider expression 1 below

The total score in the whole test=Total score in the main part+Bonus points, where;

Total score in the whole test=110.6 points

Total score in the main part=8.3a points

Bonus points=11 points

Substituting the values in expression 1:

8.3a+11=110.6

8.3a=110.6-11

8.3a/8.3=99.6/8.3

a=12

Number of correct answers in the main part=a=12
