-2 because in the second equation it is : 2x. If you multiply x in the first equation by -2 it will cancel out 2x in the second equation. -2x cancels out 2x. -2x+2x=0

if there are 2040 seats in a section of a stadium, 20 seats in the first row, and 4 more seats in each row, how many rows are th
Lorico [155]


2040 = n/2(20+(n-1)4)

4080 = n(20+4n-4)

4080= 20n +4n^2 -4n

1020 = 4n + n^2

n^2 +4n -1020 =0

use common formula (can't write out so just look at answers. sorry)

which gives answers of n=-34 and n=30. since n can only be positive, n=30 so there are 30 rows. I liked that challenge

Describe a transformation that could be used to show that alternate interior angles are congruent.
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

Let 'l' be the original line having one angle ∠BAC.

If the original line 'l' is shifted or translated to line 'm', angle BAC will replace the angle BDE.

Since, measure of angles are preserved in the translation,

m∠BDE = m∠BAC [corresponding angles]

Since, ∠BDE ≅ ∠MDA [Vertical angles]

Therefore, m∠MDA = m∠BAC

Hence, alternate interior angles (∠MDA) and (∠BAC) will be congruent when line 'l' is translated to line 'm'.
