Answer:
boys + girls = 45 -------(1)
There boys 17 more than girls, boys = girls + 17 ----------(2)
substitute (2) in (1)
girls + 17 + girls = 45
2 x girls + 17 = 45
2 x girls = 45 - 17
2 x girls = 28
girls = 14
substitute in (2): boys = girls + 17 = 14 + 17 = 31
option D
I assume you mean x squared in the first equation
Because both are equal to y, they are equal to each other so x + 5 = x^2 +3
If we then move everything over to one side, we get x^2 - x - 2 = 0
Then factorise it to (x-2)(x+1) = 0
And solve both parts separately
x + 1 = 0
x = -1
x-2 = 0
x = 2
Sub both values into the simplest equation in this case y=x+5
to get y = 4 and y = 7
Answer: To check a solution, you can substitute the solutions into the equations and verify that both equations are true.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
90 degree angle = right angle, that's what it is. you know there's 60 degree, so the other one is 90 - 60 = 30. since it's 3 times x, it's 10.
