Answer:
use the distributive property to distribute the 8
-16+16n+3n=40+5n
-16+19n=40+5n
-16=40+5n-19n
-16=40-14n
-14n+40= -16
-14n= -16-40
-14n= -56
n= -56/-14
n= 4

Answer:
(b) 40°
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle x and the one marked 70° are alternate interior angles, so are congruent. The sum of the two base angles of the isosceles triangle is ...
x° +x° = 70° +70° = 140°
So, the remaining angle 1 in the triangle is ...
180° -140° = 40°
∠1 = 40°
Answer:
Part A:
x + y = 80
x + 20 = y
Part B:
Pam spends 30 minutes practicing math every day.
Part C:
It is not possible for Pam to have spent 60 minutes practicing dance because this means she must have practiced math for 40 minutes (60 - 20 = 40). This would total out to 100 minutes of total practice, not 80 minutes. Therefore, this is impossible.
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A:
"She spends 80 minutes every day practicing dance and math."
x + y = 80
"She dances for 20 minutes longer than she works on math."
x + 20 = y
Part B:
Solve for x:
x + 20 = y
Isolate variable x:
x = y - 20
Plug in this new value for the first equation:
y - 20 + y = 80
Combine like terms:
2y - 20 = 80
Isolate variable y:
2y = 100
y = 50
Plug in the new value of y into any equation:
x + 50 = 80
Isolate variable x:
x = 30
Part C:
x + 20 = y
x + 20 = 60
x = 40
x + y = 80
40 + 60 = 80
100 = 80
Impossible.
