Answer:
x = 47
Step-by-step explanation:
So It most likely adds up to 180 degrees so.
x + 10 + x -10 + x - 10 + x + 6 = 180 (collect like terms)
4x -4 = 184 ( add 4 on both sides)
4x = 188 (divide 188 by 4)
x = 47
47 + 10 = 57 ----> x + 10
47 - 10 = 37 -----> x - 10
47 + 6 = 53 ------> x + 6
-5x + y = -5.....multiply by -2
-4x + 2y = 2
---------------
10x - 2y = 10 (result of multiplying by -2)
-4x + 2y = 2
-----------------add
6x = 12
x = 12/6
x = 2
-5x + y = -5
-5(2) + y = -5
-10 + y = -5
y = -5 + 10
y = 5
solution is (2,5)
Answer:
y = 11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2 secants from an external point to the circle.
Then the product of the external part and the whole of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the whole of the other secant, that is
6(6 + y) = 5(5 + 16)
36 + 6y = 5 × 21 = 105 ( subtract 36 from both sides )
6y = 69 ( divide both parts by 6 )
y = 11.5
The answer is C, when numbers or variables are between "|" (also called bars) it means to remove any negative symbols and think of it as a positive number. If the number is already positive you keep it a positive number.
Let the three consecutive number be x,x+1 and x+2.
It is given sum of three consecutive numbers is 46.
So,x+x+1+x+2=46
3x+3=46.
Subtracting 3 both sides
3x=46-3
3x=43.
x= 
Since
is not an integer there is no true answer to this problem.
