To set up your system of equations is to have 2 equations. They both would have 1 similar variable. For example, Jenny is 5 more her brother's age. She is also 2 more than twice her brother's age. You would set this up as Y, which is Jenny, and X, her brother. Y = 5 + x and Y = 2x + 2. Make sure you put Y in the same spot in both equations. Then take the other half of the equations and simplify them. 5 + x = 2x + 2. Subtract x from both sides to get 5 = x + 2. Subtract 2 from both sides to get 3 = x. Now replace the X from both equations to get Y = 5+3, and Y = 2(3) + 2. You will see both add up to 8, which is how old Jenny is in this example. Hope this helped!
Answer:
43°
Step-by-step explanation:
For triangle ABC:
A = C so all we need to do is to calculate the value of B
The measure of angle ABD is given as 17° so the measure of angle EBC must be 17° as well
Since DBE is an equilateral triangle angle is DBE = 60°
17 + 17 + 60 = 94 this is the measure of angle B
The sum of interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180
A + B + C = 180
A + C + 94 = 180
A + C = 86 since A = C we divide 86 by 2
C = 43°
Answer:
b) 24 rows
Step-by-step explanation:
12 inches = 1 foot
Since we are doing 30 feet, multiply 12 by 30
12 · 30 = 360 inches
Then, divide the total length (360 inches) by the spacing size (15 inches)
360 ÷ 15 = 24 rows total
The total angle sum of a triangle is 180°
As such, 180= 78 + 2s +4s
102= 6s
s=17
Answer:
x= 4
y= -5
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x+6y=-38 equation 1
3x-4y=32 equation 2
using equation 1 we have:
-2x+6y=-38
6y +38 = 2x
3y + 19 = x equation 3
using equation 3 in equation 2 we have:
3(3y + 19) - 4y = 32
9y + 57 -4y =32
5y = 32 -57
5y = -25
y= -25/5
y = -5
so we have:
3y + 19 = x
3(-5) +19 = x
x= 4
