I don't think there is a value of y because 2.5 is a straight line.
I actually posted this a while ago and it got answerd by a smart person so here's what I understood
the error is that it assumes that √(x²)=x
because if x is negative, it becomes positive
that's how the 2nd line is wrong
the 2nd line is the first wrong step
it goes from 4-9/2+9/2
so it goes from 4-4.5+4.5
notice the part under the parenthsees
√((4-4.5)²)
if we evaluate 4-4.5, we get -0.5
but by squaring it we get 0.5
-0.5+4.5=4, yes
but when we square it we get
0.5+4.5=5, that is how it works
Hi,
Let Sydney's age be x.
Devaughn=(x-15)
x+(x-15)=37
x+x-15=37
2x-15=37
2x=37+15
2x=52
x=52/2
x=26
Sydney is 26 years old.
Hope this Helps you.
Step-by-step explanation:
The outer angle at the top C of the ABC is 112 °. If the bisector of the side AB intersects the side AC at point Q and the segment BQ is perpendicular to AC, find the magnitude of ABC
