First you need to combine like terms

13x+8-15x=6+x+11

-2x+8=x+17
-x -8 -x -8

-3x=9
--- ----
-3 -3

x=-3

answer:

$x = - 2 \\ y = 2 \\ \\ ( - 2, \: 2)$

explanation:

$y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 1 \\ y = 2x + 6 \\ first \: equation \: add \: \frac{1}{2} from \: both \\ sides \\ \\ second \: equation \: subtract \: 2x \: from \\ both \: sides \\ \\ y + \frac{1}{2} x = 1 \\ y - 2x = 6 \\ solve \: the \: first \: equation \\ \\ y + \frac{1}{2} x = 1 \\ subtract \: \frac{x}{2} from \: both \: sides \\ \\ y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 1 \\ substitute \: - \frac{x}{2} + 1 \: for \: y \: in \: the \\ other \: equation \\ \\ - \frac{1}{2} x + 1 - 2x = 6 \\ add \: \frac{1}{2} x \: to \: 2x \\ \\ - \frac{5}{2} x + 1 = 6 \\ subtract \: 1 \: from \: both \: sides \\ \\ - \frac{5}{2} x = 5 \\ divide \: both \: sides \: by \: - \frac{5}{2} \\ \\ x = - 2 \\ substitute \: the \: value \: of \: x \: into \\ an \: equation \\ \\ y = - \frac{1}{2} ( - 2) + 1 \\ distribute \\ \\ y = 1 + 1 \\ add \\ \\ y = 2 \\ \\ ( - 2, \: 2)$

HELPP ANYONE Given that Y is the centroid of STU , find X A 4 B 10 C 15 D 30

lesya [120]

Since Y is the centroid then the larger piece of the median is 2 times that of the smaller piece

10 = 2*(2x - 3)

10 = 4x - 6

16 = 4x

x = 4
