Since y must equal both 3x+2 and x-4, we deduce that 3x+2 and x-4 must equal each other. So, we have

3x+2=x-4 \iff 2x+2=-4 \iff 2x=-6 \iff x=-3

Answer:

b. -3

Step-by-step explanation:

the system is:

y=3x+2\\y=x-4

to find the value of x, we need to eliminate the y variable.

We can eliminate the 'y'  by substracting the equations:

y=3x+2\\-(y=x-4)\\-----------\\y=3x+2\\-y=-x+4\\------------\\y-y=3x-x+2+4

which is simplified to:

0=2x+6

and clearing for x:

2x=-6\\x=-6/2\\x=-3

which is option b.

Identify the angle measures of PQRS.
kap26 [50]
The opposite angles of an inscribe quadrilateral are supplementary.

angle P + angle R = 180
6x + 7 + 12x + 11 = 180
18x + 18 = 180
18x = 162
x = 9

Now we will substitute in the value of x to find angle P and R.

angle P = 6(9)+7 = 61
angle R = 12(9)+11 = 119

Now we will find the value of y.

angle Q + angle S = 180
10y + 7 + 3(3y + 7) = 180
10y + 7 + 9y + 21 = 180
19y + 28 = 180
19y = 152
y = 8

Now substitute in the value of y to find angle Q and S.

angle Q = 10(8)+7 = 87
angle S = 3(3*8+7) = 93

Hope this helps :)

Find the missing side lengths. Show work. <br> x=______ y=_____
olga_2 [115]
X = 5
Y = 6
Simply we just compare the two shapes and we can see that 6 decreases to 4..so we would assume the rest would decrease by 2. If we were not so sure we could simply do a^2 + b^2 = c^2 and fill in the numbers

Determine the relationship between the two triangles and whether or not they can be proven to be congruent
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

SAS congruence postulate

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that two sides are congruent and one included angle is also congruent, this is enough to use the SAS congruence postulate and prove the triangles congruent.

Hope this helps
