Y = 4x - 9 and y = x-3 so the two right sides (4x-9 and x-3) must be equal
4x-9 = x-3
Let's solve for x
4x-9 = x-3
4x-9+9 = x-3+9 ... add 9 to both sides
4x = x+6
4x-x = x+6-x ... subtract x from both sides
3x = 6
3x/3 = 6/3 ... divide both sides by 3
x = 2
If x = 2, then y is...
y = 4*x - 9 = 4*2-9 = 8-9 = -1
which can also be found by
y = x-3 = 2-3 = -1
So overall x = 2 and y = -1
We have the ordered pair (x,y) = (2,-1)
3.84/16 = 0.24 per tangerine
Answer: x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello again XD.
This is a coordinate plane and all the angles on a coordinate plane add up to 360°
Divide 360 by 4 to get the measurement of the section we are working in.
360/4 = 90°
This means it is complementary and complementary angles state that both separate angles added together = 90°
therefore,
6x + 2 + 40 = 90
combine like terms:
6x + 42 = 90
now subtract 42 from both sides
6x = 48
divide 6 from both sides to get:
x = 8
Let me know if you have any more questions you want answered and I hope I explained this well.
Area of the rectangle is 18•3= 54
Area of the triangle is (10-3)•(18-6)/2= 7•12/2= 42
Area of the whole figure is 54+42=96
