Please help, very confused

Answer:

1.

-3x + 8y = -5

6x + 2y = -8

Set the equations to a common variable.

-3x + 8y = -5 → 8y = 3x - 5 → y = 3/8x - 5/8

6x + 2y = -8 → 2y = -6x - 8 → y = -3x - 4

Set the equations equal to each other.

3/8x - 5/8 = -3x - 4

Combine like terms.

3x + 3/8x = -4 + 5/8

3.375x = -3.375

Divide by 3.375

x = -1

Plug x back in to find y.

-3x + 8y = -5

-3(-1) + 8y = -5

3 + 8y = -5

8y = -8

y = -1

answer: (-1, -1)

2.

3x + 2y = -16

-3x - 8y = 46

Set the equations to a common variable.

3x + 2y = -16 → 2y = -3x - 16 → y = -3/2x - 8

-3x - 8y = 46 → -8y = 3x + 46 → y = -3/8x - 23/4

Set the equations equal to each other.

-3/2x - 8 = -3/8x - 23/4

Combine like terms.

-9/8x = 9/4

or

-1.125x = 2.25

Divide by -1.125

x = -2

Plug x back in to find y.

3(-2) + 2y = -16

-6 + 2y = -16

2y = -10

y = -5

answer: (-2, -5)

4(y+8)=100 help me pls due today
Otrada [13]

Answer:

y=17

Step-by-step explanation:4(y+8)=100

We move all terms to the left:

4(y+8)-(100)=0

We multiply parentheses

4y+32-100=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

4y-68=0

We move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right

4y=68

y=68/4

y=17

Find the value of x. Then find the measure of each labeled angle
34kurt

Answer:

x = 109

Top Right Angle = 109

Bottom Right Angle = 71

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice the two right angles on the left and recognize that the figure is a a quadrilateral (4 sides). That means it adds up to a total of 360 degrees.

(x-38) + x + 90 + 90 = 360

2x + 142 = 360

2x = 218

x = 109

(x - 38) = (109 - 38)

71 degrees for bottom right angle

109 for top right angle
