Answer:
The answers are in the image.
Step-by-step explanation:
Charlie made the mistake by not getting the equation equal to zero.

Subtract 16 to both sides making it equal to 0.

Using Quadratic Formula to Solve for x.
Step-by-step explanation:
The general equation is y = mx + c...
The given equation is 2x + y = 6
Firstly, move everything on the left except the y to the right.i.e.
y = 6 - 2x
Secondly, rearrange the values on the right to look just like the general equation.
y = -2x + 6
The equation is now in proper general form because it matches the format laid down.
Answer:
<C=26
<B=48
<D=106
<F=42
Step-by-step explanation:
I labeled all the angles to help this make more sense :)
So first we find <C, which is supplementary to <E so just do 180-154=26
Next, we know that <F and <B are equal because they form corresponding angles.
Angles <C <D and <B form a triangle. The three angles of a triangle always equal 180. Now that we know angles <C and <B, we just do 180-26-48=106.
Lastly, to find angle A, we just take 180-106-48=42.
Hope this helps
X = # of woodwind instruments
y = # of brass instruments
2x = y
150 = x + y
I hope this helps you!
