TWO QUESTIONS PLS HELP ASAP
ASHA 777 [7]
Answer: 4. (-1,-1) 3. (3,-2)

4)

Set the equations equal to each other.

4x+3=-x-2

Subtract 3 from both sides

4x=-x-5

Add x to both sides

5x=-5

Divide both sides by 5

x=-1

Next, replace x with -1 in either equation to find y.

-(-1)-2=y

-1=y


3)

Do the same thing for this one and set them equal to each other

-2x+4=-1/3x-1

Add 1 to both sides

-2x+5=-1/3x

Add 2x to both sides

5=5/3x

Divide both sides by 5/3

x=3

Next, replace x with 3 in either equation

-2(3)+4=y

-2=y

Can someone give me the answer and explanation
DENIUS [597]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

The total minus the cost of the eggs leaves you with just the total of the potatoes. Since we know that the total of the potatoes is the product of 5 bags, we can divide the total of the potatoes by 5 to find the cost of each bag of potatoes.

Answer:

option 3, 45

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 9° + 30° + 24° = 180° (angle sum property of a triangle)

3x - 9° + 54° = 180°

3x + 45° = 180°

3x = 180° - 45°

3x = 135°

x = 135/3

x = 45°

therefore, option 3 is the correct option
