Answer:

x = 2/3 (Two-thirds)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, move the 6x term to the other side of the equation by subtraction.

Now, it is -3x = -2.

To isolate the x, divide both sides by -3.

This leaves you with x = 2/3, since two negatives in a fraction will be positive.

Answer:

$\mathrm{The\:solutions\:to\:the\:system\:of\:equations\:are:}$

$y=0,\:x=6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the system of the equations

$\begin{bmatrix}2x-7y=12\\ -x+15y=-6\end{bmatrix}$

$\mathrm{Isolate}\:x\:\mathrm{for}\:2x-7y=12$

$2x-7y+7y=12+7y$

$2x=12+7y$

Divide both sides by 2

$\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{12}{2}+\frac{7y}{2}$

$x=\frac{12+7y}{2}$

$\mathrm{Subsititute\:}x=\frac{12+7y}{2}$

$\begin{bmatrix}-\frac{12+7y}{2}+15y=-6\end{bmatrix}$

$-\frac{12+7y}{2}+15y=-6$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}2$

$-\frac{12+7y}{2}\cdot \:2+15y\cdot \:2=-6\cdot \:2$

$-\left(12+7y\right)+30y=-12$

$-12+23y=-12$

$-12+23y+12=-12+12$

$23y=0$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}23$

$\frac{23y}{23}=\frac{0}{23}$

$y=0$

$\mathrm{For\:}x=\frac{12+7y}{2}$

$\mathrm{Subsititute\:}y=0$

$x=\frac{12+7\cdot \:0}{2}$

$x=\frac{12}{2}$

$x=6$

$\mathrm{The\:solutions\:to\:the\:system\:of\:equations\:are:}$

$y=0,\:x=6$

Hey ASAPPP PLS 80 points

Answer:

using pythagoras theorem

a^2+b^2=c^2

8^2+x^2=(x+2)^2

64+x^2=x^2+2*x*2+2^2

64+x^2=x^2+4x+4(here x^2 of left hand side and x^2 of right hand side gets cancel)

64=4x+4

64-4=4x

60/4=x

15=x
