you first plug (substitute) in y

-3x - 3(-5x-17)=3

then distribute

-3x+15x+51=3

now combine like terms

12x+51=3

subtract to get 12x by itself

12x=3-51 or 12x=-48

lastly divide by 12 to find x

12x/12=-48/12

x=-4

now find y by plugging x into the other equation

y=-5(-4)-17

y=3

(-4,3)

Quick I need an answer to this Queston:

fiasKO [112]

Step-by-step explanation:

$- \frac{3}{4} x + 2 \frac{1}{4 } = \frac{1}{2} x + 1$

$- \frac{3}{4} x + \frac{9}{4} = \frac{1}{2} x + \frac{2}{2}$

$\frac{ - 3x + 9}{4} = \frac{2x + 4}{4}$

$- 3x + 9 = 2x + 4$

$- 3x - 2x = 4 - 9$

$- 5x = - 5$

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

$x = 1$

The answer is C.

Choose the correct correspondence RT

Marizza181 [45]

$RT$ corresponds to TR. correct option b.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given parallelogram or rectangle , we have a diagonal RT . We need to find which side is in correspondence with side/Diagonal RT of parallelogram URST .

Side TU:

In triangle UTR , we see that TR is hypotenuse and is the longest side among UR & TU . So , TR can never be equal in length to UR & TU . So there's no correspondence of Side TU with RT.

Side TR:

Since, direction of sides are not mentioned here , we can say that TR & RT is parallel & equal to each other . So , TR is in correspondence with side/Diagonal RT of parallelogram URST .

Side UR:

In triangle UTR , we see that TR is hypotenuse and is the longest side among UR & TU . So , TR can never be equal in length to UR & TU . So there's no correspondence of Side UR with RT.

Select one: a. 4 b.5 c. 6 d. 7

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 secants intersect a circle from a point outside the circle, then

The product of the external part and the entire part of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the entire part of the other secant, that is

x(x + 10 + x) = 6(6 + 10 + x)

x(2x + 10) = 6(16 + x) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

2x² + 10x = 96 + 6x ← subtract 96 + 6x from both sides

2x² + 4x - 96 = 0 ← in standard form

Divide through by 2

x² + 2x - 48 = 0 ← factor the left side

(x + 8)(x - 6) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8

x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6

However x > 0 ⇒ x = 6 → C

Darlene has 59 pages to type. so far she gas type 23 pages. what fraction of the job is finished

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

$\frac{23}{59}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction can be found be taking the current amount over the total amount:

$\frac{current}{total}=\frac{23}{59}$

Since Darlene has only typed 23 pages out of 59, her fraction is 23 over 59. Fractions must always be in simplest form, which means that both the numerator and denominator can no longer be divided by the same factor. Since the numbers 23 and 59 are both prime and have no other factors other than 1 and themselves, the fraction 23/59 is in simplest form.
