Answer:

The answer to your question is No, it is not a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Point (4, 2)

                      y = x - 2              Equation l

                      y = 3x + 4            Equation ll

-Solve the system by equality

                    x - 2 = 3x + 4

-Solve for x

                    x - 3x = 4 + 2

                       - 2x = 6

-Result

                           x = 6/-2

                           x = -3

-Find y

                    y = -3 - 2

-Result

                     y = -5      

The solution to this system is (-3, -5), (4,2) is not a solution.

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x-2  y=3x+4

Substitute the point into both equations and see if it is true

2=4-2

2=2  true

and

2=3*4+4

2 = 12+4

2 =16

False

It is not a solution

Darryl has written 60 percent, or 12 pages, of his history report. Darryl wants to figure out how many total pages he needs to w
Valentin [98]

Answer:

total pages = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

60% of an unknown number is 12

Let the unknown number (total pages) be x.

60/100 of x = 12

60/100 * x = 12

3/5 x = 12

x = 12 * 5/3

x = 20

If point C is between points A and B, then AC + CB = ___.
mario62 [17]

The correct answer is: AB

Explanation:

There are two ways you can understand this:

1. By drawing:

A ------ C ------B

As you can see the point C is between A and point B, hence AC + CB = AB. One thing to remember here is that point C can be anywhere between the point A and B, in that case, the answer will remain be the same AB. For instance:

A --- C -------------B

Again, AC + CB = AB.

2. By inference:

If the point C is between points A and B, it means that the point C lies on the line AB; if point C were not on the line AB, it will not be between points A and B. Hence, you can infer that AB is a line and point C lies on it and is between points A and B.
