Answer:

Its true ⇒ answer (a)

Step-by-step explanation:

* The solution of two linear equation means that this solution

  is a solution for each equation

* To check if the point is a solution of an equation

- Substitute its coordinates in the equation, if the left hand side

 is equal the right hand side, then the point is a solution

 of this equation

* Lets study our problem

- (-2 2) is the solution of two linear equations

- The slope of one equation is 3

- The slope of the second equation is the negative reciprocal

 of the slope of the first, means = -1/3

* Check the this conditions in the given equations

- In the equation y = 3x + 8 ⇒ the slope = 3

- In the equation y = -1/3 x + 4/3 ⇒ the slope = -1/3

* Now lets substitute the solution (-2 , 2) in the both equations

- First equation

∵ y = 2 ⇒ L.H.S

∵ 3(-2) + 8 = 2 ⇒ R.H.S

∵ L.H.S = R.H.S

∴ (-2 , 2) is a solution of the equation y = 3x + 8

- Second equation

∵ y = 2 ⇒ L.H.S

∵ (-1/3)(-2) + 4/3 = 2/3 + 4/3 = 6/3 = 2 ⇒ R.H.S

∵ L.H.S = R.H.S

∴ (-2 , 2) is a solution of the equation y = -1/3 x + 4/3

∴ (-2 , 2) is the solution of the two equations

* Its true

Answer:

The slope of a line characterizes the direction of a line. To find the slope, you divide the difference of the y-coordinates of 2 points on a line by the difference of the x-coordinates of those same 2 points .

Please help with simplifying 2|-16.75|
klio [65]
First find the absolute value of -16.75. |-16.75|= 16.75

Then multiply that by 2. 16.75x2=33.5

So 2|-16.75| simplified is 33.5

Vita has a pice of rope that is 5 meters long. She cuts the rope into pieces that are each 1/3 meter long. How many pieces does
sp2606 [1]
Normally you would divide something like this by the cuts made. So if there were cuts of 2 inches on a 10 inch rope, then you should divide 10 by 2. It's the same with this:
5/ \frac{1}{3} = 5*3, 15 \ pieces
Multiply by the reciprocal when you are dividing fractions.

18c) Find the value of x in each case.
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

x = 22.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

m∠DEA = 2x

DE || AB

m∠EAB = 2x  - by Alternate Interior Angles

Exterior angle = 6x, which equals 2x + 4x

m∠BEA = 4x

Exterior Angle 4x = 2x + 2x

m∠B = 2x

2x + 4x + 2x = 180°

8x = 180°

x = 22.5°

<h2>Exterior Angles of a Triangle:</h2>

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the two REMOTE angles inside the triangle.

In this example, we know that 6x has remote angles of ∠EAB and ∠BEA

We found out that m∠EAB = 2x, so m∠BEA must equal 6x - 2x or 4x

<h2>Sum of angles in a Triangle:</h2>

The sum of all angles in a triangle is equal to 180°.

In this example, we found all the angles, 2x, 4x, 2x. We added all of those values to equal 8x

Since the sum of all angles = 180°:

8x = 180°

x = 180°/8

x = 22.5°
