If 8x−4y=20 and 4x−8y=4, what is the value of x−y?
____ [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the system:

8x−4y=20

4x−8y=4

Reduce the first equation by dividing every term by -2:

-4x + 2y = -10

and then combine this result with the second equation:

4x−8y=4

-4x + 2y = -10

--------------------

      -6y = -6, and so y = 1.  

According to the first equation, if y = 1, then 4x - 8 = 4, or x = 3.

Then x = 3 and y = 1.

So, finally, x - y = 3 - 1 = 2

It was recently estimated that homes without children outnumber homes with children by about 8 to 7. If there are 3870 homes in
damaskus [11]

Answer: x = 2,340 homes without children

There are 2,340 homes without children.

Step-by-step explanation:

'x' represent the number of homes without children

'y' represent the number of homes with children

x : y = 9 : 7

Since the total number of homes is 4160 means x + y = 4160.

From x + y = 4160 follows y = 4160 - x.

Plug y = 4160 - x into x : y = 9 : 7

x : (4160 - x) = 9 : 7

USLUIT il<br> Find x.<br> 45°<br> 30°
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

111°

Step-by-step explanation:

  • All these are parallel lines, so the 36° angle is equal to the 36° angle inside the big triangle because they are vertically opposite.

  • Ignore the line cutting between 45° and the 30° and consider it as one triangle
  • Add them to get 75°
  • Now you have two known angles 75° and 36°
  • To get angle <em>x</em><em> </em>add 75° and 36° to get 111°
  • Because x° is an exterior angle and exterior angles equal to the sum of interior angles opposite it inside the triangle.
