2(x+y)=24
2x=y
Use substitution. If y=2x, than we can substitute 2x for it in the other equation, because x and y equal the same things in both equations.
So using that we get 2(x+2x)=24
SIMPLIFY
2(3x)=24
DISTRIBUTE
6x=24.
DIVIDE: x=4.
If we substitute x into the original equations we get x=4 and y=8. Those are your two numbers.
Have a nice day! :)
The slope is 2/3 when simplified
Answer:
<C = 133 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
<B = 90 - 43
<B = 47
<C = 180 - 47
<C = 133 degrees
When you are checking your answers, your formula should read out as 9(2.222) - 8 = 12, which is simply filing in the x value that you calculated (it comes out to 11.998 which is correct). You wrote it out as 9(2.22) - 8 = -6, which is why your checking process was incorrect
So first of all you know that one side is 14cm and the other side is 6cm
What you would do is: 14-6=???
Your answer should be: 8cm
