Hello!
To solve this problem, we will use a system of equations. We will have one number be x and the other y. We will use substitutions to solve for each variable.
x+y=9
x=2y-9
To solve for the two numbers, we need to solve the top equation. The second equation shows that x=2y-9. In the first equation, we can replace 2y-9 for x and solve.
2y-9+y=9
3y-9=9
3y=18
y=6
We now know the value of y. Now we need to find x. We can plug in 6 for y in the second equation to find x.
x=2·6-9
x=12-9
x=3
Just to check, we will plug these two numbers into the first equation.
3+6=9
9=9
Our two numbers are three and six.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
B. 40
Step-by-step explanation:
It looks like a 90-degree angle so...
90 - 30 = 60
60 - 20 = 40
40 would be your final answer.
Answer:
The third answer aka C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the missing fraction be x
x + 1/16 = 3/2
Make x the subject by subtracting both sides by 1/16
x = 3/2 - 1/16
x= 24 - 16/16
= 8/16; divide through by a common value of 8
x = 1/2
I hope this helps.
