Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide both sides by 2: x + 3 = 10/2

x + 3 = 5

subtract 3 from both sides

x = 5 -3

x = 2

Answer:

Option (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two lines on the graph representing the system of equations.

First line passes through two points (-3, 1) and (-2, 3).

Slope of the line = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

                           = \frac{3-1}{-2+3}

                       m = 2

Equation of the line passing through (x', y') and slope = m is,

y - y' = m(x - x')

Equation of the line passing through (-3, 1) and slope = 2 will be,

y - 1 = 2(x + 3)

y = 2x + 7 ----------(1)

Second line passes through (0, 1) and (-1, 4) and y-intercept 'b' of the line is 1.

Let the equation of this line is,

y = mx + b

Slope 'm' = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

               = \frac{4-1}{-1-0}

               = -3

Here 'b' = 1

Therefore, equation of the line will be,

y = -3x + 1 ---------(2)

From equation (1) and (2),

2x + 7 = -3x + 1

5x = -6

x = -\frac{6}{5}

x = -1\frac{1}{5}

From equation (1),

y = 2x + 7

y = -\frac{12}{5}+7

  = \frac{-12+35}{5}

  = \frac{23}{5}

  = 4\frac{3}{5}

Therefore, exact solution of the system of equations is (-1\frac{1}{5},4\frac{3}{5}).

Option (B) will be the answer.

What is the perimeter of rhombus LMNO? 20 units 24 units 40 units 48 units
NeTakaya
The little lines on each side of the rhombus mean that all the sides are the same length.

We can set line LM and MN equal to solve for X, then we can solve the length of a side.

3x-3 = x+7

Add 3 to each side:
3x = x +10

Subtract x from each side:

2x = 10

Divide both sides by 2:
x = 10/2
x = 5

Now we have the value for x, replace x in one of the side formulas:

x +7 = 5+7 = 12

Each side = 12 units.

 The perimeter would be 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 = 48 units.
