System OT W + b =13 6.5w + 2b = 57.5

Mathematics
1 answer:
mixer [17]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:   w = 7,  x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:  Solve by substitution

W + b = 13

rewrite as   b = 13 - w  and substitute that value for b in the second equation

6.5w + 2b = 57.5  Then solve for w

6.5w + 2(13-w) = 57.5 . Distribute

6.5w + 26 - 2w = 57.5 .  Subtract 26 from both sides. Combine like terms and simplify

6.5w - 2w = 57.5 - 26

4.5w = 31.5  Divide both sides by 4.65

w = 7 . Substitute 7 for w in the first equation and solve for b

7 + b = 13 . Subtract 7 from both sides

b = 6

sergiy2304 [10]
If you do 22÷9 and see the hole number: 2. Then do 2 x 9 and you get 18. Now do 22-18 and you get 4. So do 2 4/9. Always have the denominator stay the same.

If Z1 and Z4 are adjacent and

<h3>Answer: B) Linear pair postulate</h3>

Explanation:

As the name implies, "linear pair" means the two angles combine to form a straight line of 180 degrees. Think of gluing the angles together.

As an example, let's say angle 1 was 50 degrees and angle 4 is 130 degrees. They combine to 50+130 = 180 which is a straight angle. I recommend using a protractor to help draw these angles.

vlabodo [156]
2/5(x - 4) = 2x
2/5x - 8/5 = 2x....multiply everything by 5
2x - 8 = 10x
-8 = 10x - 2x
-8 = 8x
-8/8 = x
-1 = x <===
