y + (2x -12) = 180 (since they are supplementary angles)

(2x-12) = 96 ( since they are alternate exterior angle)

2x = 96 + 12

2x = 108

x = 108/2

x = 54.

y+( 2x-12)=180

y+(2× 54 -12) = 180

y + (108-12) = 180

y + 96 = 180

y= 180-96

y = 84.

Juanita says that 3.5[4d - (2) (1.5)] and 2[7d - (5)(1.05)] are equivalent. Is Juanita correct? Explain your reasoning.

valkas [14]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

3.5 [4d - 2*1.5] = 3.5*4d - 3.5*2*1.5

= 14d - 10.5

2*[7d - 5*1.05] = 2*7d - 2*5*1.05

= 14d - 10.5

When we are simplifying both the expression using distributive property, we get the same expression at the end.

What is the solution(s) to the system of equations y = x² +4 and y = 2x + 4

bija089 [108]

Answer:

$(x,y) = (0,4)~ \text{and}~ (x,y) = (2,8)$

Step by step explanation:

$y = x^2 +4~~~~~~~~~...(i)\\\\y = 2x +4~~~~~~~~~...(ii)\\\\\text{From (i) and (ii):}\\\\~~~~~~x^2 +4 = 2x+4\\\\\implies x^2 = 2x\\\\\implies x^2 -2x = 0\\\\\implies x(x-2) = 0\\\\\implies x =0,~ x = 2$

$\text{Substitute x = 0 in eq (i):}\\\\y = 0^2 +4 = 4\\\\\text{Substitute x = 2 in eq (i):}\\\\y=2^2+4 = 4+4 = 8\\\\\text{Hence,}~ (x,y)= \{(2,8), (0,4)\}$
