Answer:
To do this, you need to multiply out the expressions. This is a bit tedious, but remember like FOIL for binomials, for these trinomials you must multiply each term. If you need a step-by-step, I'd be happy to provide it. Let me know.
Once you have simplified the expression, you get
-x-9/2x-4
But, the problem stipulates that a must equal 1. We can equivalently factor out the negative sign and put it on the denominator with no change to write
x+9/-(2x-4) = x+9/-2x+4
So, seeing where each coefficient corresponds between the two expressions, you get a = 1, b = 9, c = –2, and d = 4.
Answer:
x = 67; y = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
You are correct with y. Angles y + 23 and 63 are vertical, so they are congruent. That gives you y + 23 = 63, which gives y = 40.
To find x, look at angles 2x - 17 and 63.
They are adjacent angles whose outside rays lie on a line. Angles like these are called a linear pair, and they are supplementary. That means their measures add up to 180 deg.
2x - 17 + 63 = 180
2x + 46 = 180
2x = 134
x = 67
Answer:
+15
Step-by-step explanation:
An increase is generally regarded as being positive. If units are dollars, an increase of $15 can be represented by the integer +15.

<em>Additional comment</em>
If units are dimes, then the number would be +150. So, you see, <em>the units are important </em>to know.
It also depends on <em>what is increasing</em> and what is being represented by the integer. If it is an increase in debt, then the change in net worth might be -15.
