Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Angles 153 and QRP are straight angles, and thus Angle QRP is
180 - 153, or 27 degrees.
The interior angles of the triangle must sum up to 180 degrees:
27 + (3y + 5) + (2y - 7) = 180.
combining like terms, we get:
5y - 25 = 180, or 5y = 155, or y = 31
Then Angle Q is 3(31) + 5, or 93
Angle P is 2(31) - 7, or 55, and
Angle QRP is 27 degrees (found earlier).
Answer: 2
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have to plug in the value for x which is -18 so then you're equation then get y by itself and solve for y. This becomes
-3(-18) -y = 56
54 - y = 56
-54 -54
Y=2
You can check your work by plugging in 18 for x and 2 for y and when you solve the equation your answer should equal 56.
Let n be the amount of time it takes william to cut the lawn. Then Shelly takes
n-2 hours. So:
1/n+1/n-2=1/3
3(n-2)+3n=n²-2n
6n-6=n²-2n
n²-8n+6=0
Using the quadratic formula, we get a positive value of 7.1623 hrs as the amount of time william takes working alone, and 5.1623 as the amount of time Shelly takes working alone

y = x² - 4x + 4
0 = x² - 4x + 4
0 = x² - 2x - 2x + 4
0 = x(x) - x(2) - 2(x) - 2(-2)
0 = x(x - 2) - 2(x - 2)
0 = (x - 2)(x - 2)
0 = (x - 2)²
0 = x - 2
+ 2 + 2
2 = x
(x, y) = (2, 0)
Multiply the first equation by -2. It turns into 4x+18y=50 and the other one stays -4x-9y=-23. Then you "eliminate" the equations by "adding" them. Set it up like this:
4x+18y=50
+
-4x-9y=-23
4x-4x= 0. 18y-9y= 9y and 50-23= 27
SO: 9y= 27 and y= 3
And then you plug that in to one equation: 4x +18(3)= 50. 4x= 50-(18*3)
4x= -4, so x=-1.
Plug it back in to check!
Hope this helps. Happy solving! :)
