2.8 in three different ways

What is 6-2p=p+9 ?Because I don't know it

Hey there!

Firstly, you have to $\bold{simplify}$ each of the sides of your equation
$\bold{6-2p-p+9\downarrow}$
$\bold{6+(-2p)=p+9\downarrow}$
$\rightarrow\bold{-2p+6=p+9}$
Now that you have that portion out of the way, we could move on to our second step... which is to $\bold{subtract}$ by the value of $\bold{p}$ on each of your sides
$\bold{-2p+6-p-p+9-p\downarrow}$
$\rightarrow\bold{-3p+6-9}$ (you get this because we solve the particular equation we added above)
Thirdly, you have to $\bold{subtract}$ by the number $\bold{6}$ on each of your sides
$\bold{-3p+6-6=9-6\downarrow}$
$\bold{Cancel:6-6}$ because it equals to $\bold{0}$
$\bold{Keep:9-6}$ because it brings us closer and closer to the answer of $\bold{p}$
Fourthly, we have to $\bold{divide}$ by the number $\bold{-3}$ on each of your sides
$\bold{\frac{-3p}{-3}=\frac{3}{-3}}$
$\boxed{\boxed{\bold{Answer:p=-1}}}$ $\checkmark$

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

find the values of x and y that make these triangles congruent by the hl theorem x=2,y=3 x=-2,y=3x=3,y=2x=4,y=8

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

The correct option is x=3 , y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the HL theorem if the hypotenuse and one leg of a right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and one leg of another right triangle then the triangles are congruent.

By using this theorem we can set up the system of equations as follows:

x=y+1 ...(1)

2x+3= 3y + 3 ..(2)

Now we will plug the value y+1 of equation 1 in equation 2.

2x+3 = 3y+3

2(y+1)+3=3y+3

2y+2+3=3y+3

2y+5=3y+3

Now combine the like terms:

5-3=3y-2y

2=y

y=2
