Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - (8x -17) = -10

Rewrite the equation and take away the brackets:

5x - 8x + 17 = -10

5x - 8x = -10 - 17

5x - 8x = -27

-3x = -27

x = -27 ÷ -3

x = 9

I hope this helps!

Solve the following system by the comparison method.
agasfer [191]

Answer:

2p + q = 1

9p + 3q + 3 = 0

q = 1 - 2p

replace q = 1 - 2p into 9p + 3q + 3 = 0

9p + 3(1 - 2p) + 3 = 0

9p + 3 - 6p + 3 = 0

3p + 6 =0

3p = -6

p = -2

q = 1 - 2p

q = 1 -2(-2)

q = 1 + 4

q = 5

(-2 , 5)

there for the answer would be

{(-2, 5)}

In ΔFGH, what is the measure of &lt; H?
kogti [31]
X + x - 1 + 43 = 180.  Solve for x.  2x +42 = 180 and 2x = 138.  Therefore, x = 69.  If x = 69, then angle H is 68 and angle G is 69.  68 + 69 + 43 = 180.
