Answer: The answer is attached in the figure.
Step-by-step explanation: Given are four different graphs and we are to check which one matches with the equation y = 2 - x.
We have the following points on this equation.
(0,2), (1,1), (2,0), etc.
When we try to match these points with the given graphs, the we see that these points does not match with the first, third and fourth graph. The only graph containing these points is second one.
Thus, the second option is correct. Also see the attached figure for the location of the three mentioned points.
Answer:
x = 42
Step-by-step explanation:
The marked angles are supplementary, so their sum is 180°.
(2x +8) +(2x +4) = 180
4x +12 = 180 . . . . . . . . . simplify
x +3 = 45 . . . . . . . divide by 4 (because we can)
x = 42 . . . . . . subtract 3

<em>Additional comment</em>
A "two-step" linear equation like this one is usually solved by subtracting the unwanted constant, then dividing by the coefficient of the variable. Here, we have done those steps in reverse order. This makes the numbers smaller and eliminates the coefficient of the variable. Sometimes I find it easier to solve the equation this way.
