Answer:

Anne made a mistake when she multiplied all the left side equation with 6

Step-by-step explanation:

6(2x)-3 = 22x+32

Distribute 6 only to the term within the parenthesis

12x - 3 = 22x + 32

Collect like terms

12x-22x = 32+3

-10x = 32+3

-10x = 35

divide both sides of equation by -10

x = -3.5

Solve 16x+9=9y−2x16x+9=9y−2x for y
denis23 [38]
16x + 9 = 9y-2x   Add 2x to both sides
18x + 9 = 9y        Divide both sides by 9
  2x + 1 = y           Switch the sides to make it easier to read
         y = 2x + 1

Two angles of a quadrilateral measure 200° and 50°. The other two angles are in a ratio of 2:9. What are the measures of those t
avanturin [10]

Answer:

20° and  90°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 2x = measure of 1st angle

then 9x =  measure of 2nd angle

The sum of the measures of the angles of a quad is 360

200 + 50 + 2x + 9x = 360

250 + 11x = 360

11x = 110

x = 10

2x = 20°

9x = 90°
