Answer:

  • yes
  • 2x +30 = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding the same number to both sides of the equation is an acceptable move. The addition property of equality tells Grace that the value of the variable will remain unchanged by such a move.

Her new equation would be ...

  2x +20 +10 = 15 +10

  2x +30 = 25 . . . . the result of Grace's move

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

There may be very good reasons why Grace would want to do that. If solving the equation is Grace's intent, that move would be counterproductive. For the purpose of solving the equation, it would be more productive to either subtract 20 from both sides, or divide both sides by 2. These steps would give, respectively, ...

  2x = -5

  x +10 = 7.5

ira [324]
We can use vertical opposite angles. Which means the opposite angles where 2 lines intersects is the same.
3x + 50 = 6x - 10 (vert. Opp. Angles)
3x = 6x - 60
-3x = - 60
X = 20°

in parallelogram JKLM, the ratio of the measure of angle J to the measure of angle M is 5:4. Find the measurement of angle J and
Helga [31]
Since we know that these two are consecutive angles and consecutive angles add up to 180 deg, we can come up with the equation 4x +5x =180. Solving this out shows us that x = 20 and the measure of angle J is 100 deg while the measure of angle M is 80 deg.

Parallel = same slope
Y = -3x + 7, the slope is -3
Slope intercept form: y = mx + b
Y = -3x + b
Plug in point (2,-4) and solve for b
-4 = -3(2) + b
-4 = -6 + b, b = 2
Solution: y = -3x + 2
The answer is D
