The answer is (A) because the (quantity of a number minus nine) implies that x-9 is inside parenthesis.

Answer:measurement of angle B is

$70 \: \: degrees$

<h3>Answer C is correct</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

$6x - 2 + 5x + 18 + 2x + 8 = 180 \\ 13x + 24 = 180 \\ 13x = 180 - 24 \\ 13x = 156 \\ \frac{13x}{13} = \frac{156}{13} \\ x = 12 \: \: degrees$

Christopher swam laps everyday in the town swimming pool. He swam 45 minutes each day, 5 days each week, for 12 weeks.

Dahasolnce [82]

45(5)=225 than multiply that by 60 because remember he only swam 5 out of 7 days a week (12x5=60) therefore 225x60= 13,500 minutes to convert to hours divide by 60 which will be 225 hours

Two boys who live 14 miles apart start at noon to walk toward each other at rates of 3 mph and 4 mph respectively. In how many h

aniked [119]

Since you have the answers given, just track their walking.
After one hour, one guy has covered 3mi and the other 4mi, which is in total 7, not 14
After 2 hours, one guy has covered 6mi and the other 8mi, which is 14mi

The algebraic way would be:
3x +4x = 14 *x being the hour
7x = 14
x =2

Solve the system equation

den301095 [7]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

We will use substitution to solve this system for x.

$x - 2y = 27\\y = 5x\\\\x - 2(5x) = 27\\\\x - 10x = 27\\\\-9x = 27\\\\x = -3$

Now that we know what x is, we can determine y by pluging in -3 for x in one of the original equations. I will use the first one.

$-3 - 2y = 27\\\\-2y = 30\\\\y = -15\\$

We now have our solution.

D. $(-3, -15)$

We can check our answer by pluging the solution into one of the original equations to see if both sides equal each other. I will use the first equation.

$-3 - 2(-15) = 27\\\\-3 + 30 = 27\\\\27 = 27$

Since the equation checks out, our solution is correct.
