1. solve for X and y using both equations to find the point they cross in
−x − y = −5
y = x + 1
Plug in y into first equation
-x-(x+1)=-5
-x-x-1=-5
-2x-1=-5
+1 both sides
-2x=-4
÷-2 both sides
x=2 solve for y
y=2+1
y=3
(2,3)
2. you can set them equal to each other so 2x+4=3x+1
Arithmetic I'm pretty sure
D. Angel 6 because vertical is just asking what angle is on the other side of angle 3
Hey there!
To start, first subtract 45 from 60 to find the amount of money taken off from the discount:
60-45
=15
Because 15 dollars have been taken off the original price, you can find the percent of discount by setting up this proportion where x represents the percent of discount:
15/60=x/100
Now, cross multiply and solve for x:
1500=60x
x=25
Therefore, your discount would be 25%.
Hope this helps and have a marvelous day! :)
Answer: 44 miles
WORKINGS
Given,
The distance between Indianapolis and Lima, IL = 173 miles
The distance between Indianapolis and Dayton, ID = 165 miles
The distance between Dayton and Lima, DL is unknown
Since there are straight roads connecting the three cities, the connection between them form a right angles triangle.
The right angle is at Dayton
The hypotenuse is the distance between Indianapolis and Lima, IL
Therefore IL^2 = ID^2 + DL^2
173^2 = 165^2 + DL^2
DL^2 = 173^2 – 165^2
DL^2 = 29929 – 27225
DL^2 = 2704
DL = 52 miles
Therefore, The distance between Dayton and Lima, DL = 52 miles
The question is asking how many more miles would Meg drive if she stopped in Dayton first than if she drove directly to Lima.
That is, Distance of Indianapolis to Dayton + Distance of Dayton to Lima – Direct distance of Indianapolis to Lima
That is, ID + DL – IL
= 165 miles + 52 miles – 173 miles
= 217 miles – 173 miles
= 44 miles
Therefore, Meg would drive 44 more miles if she stopped in Dayton first than if she drove directly to Lima.
