Answer:
(C) 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations 2a + 7b+2c=16 and 2a + 3b +2c= 8, you want to know the value of b.
<h3>Solution</h3>
The coefficients of 'a' and 'c' are the same in the two equations, so we can eliminate those variables by subtracting one equation from the other. We can keep the resulting coefficient of 'b' positive if we subtract the second equation from the first.
(2a +7b +2c) -(2a +3b +2c) = (16) -(8)
4b = 8 . . . . . . . simplify
b = 2 . . . . . . . divide by 4
For number 7 because 9 is the number of small triangle and 99 is for the bigger one so you can say 9 * 11 = 99 so 10 * 11 = 110 = x
and for number 8 because the small triangle has the same sides so the bigger one should have too so x = 100 :)))
hope this is helpful
have a nice day
