Bisects means to separate in equal parts, meaning each part is equal. This means the equations on each side of the line are equal. Once you equate them, you combine like terms finding your answer.
1) 2x+ 3=x+7
-x -x
x+3 = 7
-3 -3
Answer: x=4 (do this for the others)
2) x=7/2
3) x=5/2
Answer:
C. It is a function because none of the ordered pairs have the same y-value.
Step-by-step explanation:
The two horizontal lines are parallel ( This is given by the red triangles)
Because the lines are parallel, the two angles 1 & 2 would be the same.
Set the two equations for the angle to equal each other and solve:
8y-6 = 7y
Add 6 to each side:
8y = 7y+6
Subtract 7y from each side:
y = 6
Now you have the value for y, solve for angle 2 by replacing y with 6:
Angle 2 = 7y = 7(6) = 42 degrees.
