To add 1/2 and 5/12, make both fractions have the same denominator:
1/2 is the same as 6/12, so 6/12+5/12=11/12
Thus, B is right.
Answer:
132°
Step-by-step explanation:
Quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in a circle,
So, it is a cyclic quadrilateral.
Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.
(3x-12)° = (3*48 - 12)° = (144 - 12)° = 132°

Answer:
(x, y) = (1/2, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
We observe that the y-terms have coefficients 7 and -14. If we want to eliminate the y-terms, we need to multiply 7 by a factor that makes it be the opposite of -14. That factor will be -(-14)/7 = 2.
After multiplying the first equation by 2, we have ...
- 16x +14y = 78
- 4x -14y = -68
Adding these two equations gives ...
20x = 10
Solving for x, we need to divide by 20:
x = 10/20 = 1/2
Substituting this into the first equation, we get ...
8(1/2) +7y = 39
7y = 35 . . . . . . subtract 4
y = 35/7 = 5 . . . divide by 7
Then the solution is (x, y) = (1/2, 5).
_____
<em>Check</em>
We used the first equation to find y, so we know the x- and y-values satisfy the first equation. We need to check the result using the second equation.
4(1/2) -14(5) = -68
2 -70 = -68 . . . . . . . true; result checks OK
