Answer: 8
Step-by-step explanation: Because a is perpendicular to b, the value of 9x + 18 = 90. If we subtract 18 from both sides, it becomes 9x = 72. Divide by 9 on both sides to get 8
<span> In a </span>regular polygon <span>all </span>sides have the same<span> length, therefore:
x</span>² + 8x - 52 = x² - 2x + 8
x² - x² + 8x + 2x = 8 + 52
10x = 60
x = 60/10
x = 6
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
B
We know that the cost of an apple and a banana equals $1.60
a + b = 1.60
We also know that the cost of a banana is 3 times that of an apple
3a = b
If we divide 4 from 1.60 we will get the price of 1 apple
4a = 1.60
1 apple costs $0.40
So that means 1 banana costs $1.20
-x-y=-9
-3x-2y=-28
eliminate the x first
multiply the first system of equations by 3
(3)(-x)=-3x
(3)(-y)=-3y
(3)(-9)=-27
-3x-3y=-27
-3x-2y=-28
eliminate the systems of equations by subtracting
-3x--3x-3y--2y=-27--28
-3x+3x-3y+2y=-27+28
-y=1
multiply -1 for -y=-1 to get positive y
(-y)(-1)=(1)(-1)
y=-1
substitution method by using y=-1 into one of the system of equations
-x-y=-9
-x--1=-9
-x+1=-9
move +1 to the other side
sign changes from +1 to -1
-x+1-1=-9-1
-x=-10
multiply by -1 for -x=-10 to get positive x
(-x)(-1)=(-10)(-1)
x=10
answer:
x=10, y=-1
