Answer:
The answer is that x = 6 and y = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find these values, we can use elimination. To do so, we multiply the first equation by 2 and then add the equations together.
4x + 8y = -24
-4x - 2y = -12
------------------
6y = -36
y = -6
Now that we have this value, we can plug the value into one of the originals and find x.
2x + 4y = -12
2x + 4(-6) = -12
2x - 24 = -12
2x = 12
x = 6
Answer:
(10x - 5) square units.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the lengths of equal sides be x units.
Hence, AB + AD + DC = x + x + x = 3x
Therefore, BC = 3x - 2

I got this. Bottom of the triangle. that flat line is 180 degrees. you have an angle of 120, leaving an angle of 60. if you look at the top, that angle matches the other. so you have 65 degrees on one side, and 60 on the other. so 180-65-60=55. so X=55
Answers:
- x = 11
- angle RQS = 106 degrees
- angle SQT = 74 degrees
===========================================================
Explanation:
Straight angles are always 180 degrees in measure.
The two smaller angles shown add up to 180
(angle RQS) + (angle SQT) = angle RQT
(9x+7) + (6x+8) = 180
(9x+6x) + (7+8) = 180
15x+15 = 180
15x = 180-15
15x = 165
x = 165/15
x = 11
From here, we then know that,
- angle RQS = 9x+7 = 9*11+7 = 99+7 = 106 degrees
- angle SQT = 6x+8 = 6*11+8 = 66+8 = 74 degrees
Note how the two results add to 106+74 = 180 to help confirm the answers.

So there are five candy bars.
Herself and two sisters equals 3 people in total.
This is a graph of 5 candy bars, each line being 1/2.

━ ━
━ ━
If she ate half of one... the graph would become this.

Now there are 9 halves. You need to split the 9 halves for 3 people. 9 divided by 3 is 3.
Each person gets 3 halves, or 1 and 1 half.
Mai: ━ ━ ━
Sister 1: ━ ━ ━
Sister 2: ━ ━ ━
Altogether that is 9 halves, AKA the number of halves Mai had after she ate 1/2.
The amount Mai ate in the first place: ━
9 halves plus 1 half, equals 10 halves. Each whole has 2 halves. 10 divided by 2 is 5, AKA the number of candy bars she had in the first place.
