Answer:
<h2>x = 3 and y = 4</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
We know:
The diagonals in a parallelogram divide by halves.
Therefore KG = UG and DG = CG.
We have
KG = 5y - 8, UG = 3y, DG = 4x - 7, CG = x + 2
Substitute:
5y - 8 = 3y <em>add 8 to both sides</em>
5y = 3y + 8 <em>subtract 3y from both sides</em>
2y = 8 <em>divide both sides by 2</em>
y = 4
---------------
4x - 7 = x + 2 <em>add 7 to both sides</em>
4x = x + 9 <em>subtract x from both sides</em>
3x = 9 <em>divide both sides by 3</em>
x = 3
Answer:
x= -1
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-1=2x2 (calculate the product)
3x-1=4x (move terms)
3 x - 4 x =1 (collect the terms)
- x = 1 (change the signs)
Solution is x = -1
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(8,2),(11,-13)
slope(m) = (-13 - 2) / (11 - 8) = -15/3 = -5
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -5
(8,2)...x = 8 and y = 2
now we sub and find b, the y int
2 = -5(8) + b
2 = -40 + b
2 + 40 = b
42 = b
so ur equation is : y = -5x + 42...now we need it in standard form
Ax + By = C
y = -5x 42
5x + y = 42 <====
Each member had to have received 14 and two thirds ounces. When you divide 176 by 12 you get 14.66666 which equals 14 and two thirds
