Step-by-step explanation:
You need to solve for x.
You can do that by either setting both of the equations equal to each other. or Solve each one separately and subtract the EG equation from the EW to get GW
This should be recognized as the difference of perfect squares which is of the form:
(a^2-b^2) and the difference of squares always factors to:
(a-b)(a+b) in this case:
(3x-8)(3x+8)
First you have to figure out how much a video game costs and how much a used one costs
Then you plug in the costs of the video games into Janets equation 120=3x+y
(x= video games and y=used video games)
Then you subtract the cost of video games from 120 and then divide that answer by the cost of used video games and that should give you how many used video games she can get
So we're looking at two rectangles, one cut out of the other, so all you do is find the area of the big one, base times height equals area, minus the area of the small one, base times height equals area. So the equation you have to solve for is this,
Area=(12.6X14)-(3X8.4)
X would equal 60 degrees because the degree of the top left area is equal to the degree of the bottom right. So the equation would be x+20=80 so you would solve to get x=60
