I am pretty sure b. is right. This is because 87 is not prime
Answer:
-5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
-8--3=-5
5-2=3
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 = 6x - 9
Subtract 6x from each side
x^2 -6x = -9
Add 9 to each side
x^2 -6x+9 = 0
Factor
what 2 numbers multiply to 9 and add to -6
-3*-3 = 9
-3+-3 =-6
(x-3)(x-3) = 0
Using the zero product property
x-3 =0 x-3=0
x=3 with multiplicity 2
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
∠ YXW = ∠ ZXV ( vertically opposite angles ) , so
4a + 15 = 2a + 65 ( subtract 2a from both sides )
2a + 15 = 65 ( subtract 15 from both sides )
2a = 50 ( divide both sides by 2 )
a = 25
Then
(7)
∠ ZXV = 2a + 65 = 2(25) + 65 = 50 + 65 = 115°
(8)
∠ YXW = ∠ ZXV = 115°
∠ ZXY and ∠ ZXV are adjacent angles and sum to 180° , that is
(9)
∠ ZXY = 180° - 115° = 65°
(10)
∠ VXW = ∠ ZXY = 65° ( vertically opposite angles
Starting off, we can multiply the third equation by 2 and add it to the third to get rid of both the x and y variables. Next, we get z=1. Plugging that into 3y-5z=-23, we get 3y-5=-23. Adding 5 to both sides, we get 3y=-18. After that, we can divide both sides by 3 to get y=-6. Plugging that into -2x-y-z=-3, we get -2x+6-1=-3=-2x+5. Subtracting 5x from both sides, we get -2x=-8. After that, we can divide both sides by -2 to get x=4.
