Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
you can plug any number from the graph on the line and it's still going to equal something, i'm sorry this is really bad explaing but when it's a straight line you can plug anything in and still get an answer
2x + y = x - y - 3 = 6
Add 3 to everything
2x + y + 3 = x - y - 3 + 3 = 6 + 3
2x + y + 3 = x - y = 9
2x + y + 3 = 9
2x + y = 6 = x - y
Add y to everything
2x + 2y = 6 + y = x
Since x = 6 + y substitute every x with 6 + y
2(6 + y) + 2y = x
12 + 4y = x
This is as simplified as I can get and then just place 12 + 4y into every x in the original problem then solve
Answer:
$300
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that L is the amount of money Luisa had in the beginning, and C is the amount of money Connor had in the beginning.
C + L = 360
C - 2/5 C = L + 2/5 C
Simplifying the second equation:
3/5 C = L + 2/5 C
1/5 C = L
Substituting into the first equation:
C + 1/5 C = 360
6/5 C = 360
C = 300
Connor originally had $300, and Luisa $60. Connor gave Luisa $120, and they both had $180.
It depends on which triangle it actually is
