Answer:

x = 103

Step-by-step explanation:

In my opinion, because x and 77 are the supplementary angles, so 180-77 = x or x+77=180. The answer should be 103......even though it's not in the options (I'm sorry).

Answer (x,y) (3, -2)

Explanation:
using the
substitution method
y
=
x
−
5
→
(
1
)
y
=
−
2
x
+
4
→
(
2
)
since both equations are expressed in terms of x we

can equate them
⇒
x
−
5
=
−
2
x
+
4
add 2x to both sides

x

x
−
5
=
−

x
+
2
x
+
4
⇒
3
x
−
5
=
4
add 5 from both sides
3
x
+
5
−
5
=
4
+
5
⇒
3
x
=
9
divide both sides by 3
3
x
3
=
9
3
⇒
x
=
3
substitute this value in
(

)
y
=
3
−

=

As a check
substitute these values into

Jacob walks 1.5 miles north. He turns and walks 0.8 miles west. How far is he from his starting point?

Flura [38]

Answer:

1.7 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Jacob walks 1.5 miles north.

He turns and walks 0.8 miles west.

We need to find how far is he from his starting point. Let he is at a distance of x miles from the starting point. It can be calculated as follows :

$x=\sqrt{1.5^2+0.8^2} \\\\x=1.7\ \text{miles}$
