Answer:
i think its A
Step-by-step explanation:
divide both sides by -2 which makes the y int -3 and A has a negative slope
That would turn into 3x-5
BD = 2x-4
But it's also BE - CE + CD
BE is 3x-1
CE is 2x-3
CD is 2
so
BD = 3x-1 -(2x-3) +2
simplified
BD = 1x +4
since BD = BD (obviously), we can also say that the righthand sides of the two equation must be equal
2x -4 = 1x +4
let's solve for x and that put it into either of the 2 equations.
2x -4 = 1x +4
subtract 1x on both sides
x -4 = 4
add 4 on both sides
x = 8
substitute x for its value in 2x -4 = 1x +4
(this way we double check BD in two expressions at once. the equation should come out true, meaning same value for BD in each expression. both sides should be equal).
2*8 -4 = 1*8 +4
12 = 12
seems true
BD is safely 12
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount that Rita and Tina each make per hour working as cashiers at a supermarket is $11.
Last week, Rita worked r hours. It means that the amount that Rita made last week, working for r regular hours is 11r. Rita also worked overtime hours during the week, for which she was paid an extra $32 flat wage. It means that the total amount earned by Rita last week was
11r + 32
Last week, Tina worked for t hours. It means that the amount earned by Tina last week was 11t
The expression representing the total weekly wages of both Rita and Tina is
11r + 32 + 11t
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>STU is an equilateral triangle. And:</u>
- ST = 2x - 1
- SU = 5x - 37
- TU = x + 11
<u>All sides are equal. Then take one pair and solve for x:</u>
- 2x - 1 = 5x - 37
- 3x = 36
- x = 12
<u>Substitute x to find the side length:</u>
- 2x - 1 = 5x - 37 = x + 11 = 23
