Answer:

The first first in solving for x is do the distributive property to the left and right of the eqaution.  Distribute 2 with 6x and 6.  Distribute 3 with x and -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

PEMDAS states that you do things in the parenthesis first.

Solve the system of linear equations. separate the x- and y- values with a coma. 20x=-58-2y
lianna [129]
The best way to solve is by using elimination method.
20x = -58 - 2y
17x = -49 - 2y
Multiply second equation by -1
20x = -58 - 2y
-17x = 49 + 2y
Add equations.
3x = -9 
Divide.
x = -3
Plug in -3 into one of the equations.
17(-3) = -49 - 2y
-51 = -49 - 2y
Add 49 to both sides.
-2 = -2y
Divide.
1 = y
So your solution is (-3, 1).
I hope this helps love! :)

HELP PLEASE WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Answer:
$1.21

Explanation:
What we know:
- $5.88=3 pounds of apples
- price went up by $0.75 per pound

First, we divide $5.88 by 3 to find out how much one pound of apples cost.

5.88/3
=1.96

Therefore, the new price of apples per pound is $1.96.

Because the old price of apples per pound was $0.75 cheaper, we subtract 0.75 from 1.96.

1.96-0.75
=1.21

Therefore, the old price of apples per pound was $1.21.

I hope this helps! Please comment if you have any questions.

What is the value of x in the figure? (Figure included.)
kotykmax [81]
See those lines that are pependicular
meanins that those lines are same legnth
in triangle, if 2 sides are same measure legnth then the angles oposite those sides are same measure

therefor top right and top left angle is 42

remember that vertical angles are congruent

remmeber all angles ad to 180 in a triangle

so therefor look at top triangle
top right angle is 42
top left is 42
bottom must be x
total is 180 so 
42+42+x=180
84+x=180
minus 84 fromboth sides
x=96

answer is 96 degrees
