Answer: 5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Plugging it into the formula, we get
2x-3 = 8
Add 3 to both sides:
2x = 11
Divide by 2 on both sides:
x = 5.5
Answer:
6/5
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 ÷ 5/9
2/3 × 9/5 ( while changing division to multiple, numerator and denominator changes
2 × 3/5 ( 9/3 =3
Ans =6/5
Answer:
x + 6x+10 + x+2 = 180
x = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees
x + 6x+10 + x+2 = 180
Combine like terms
8x + 12 = 180
Subtract 12 from each side
8x+12-12 = 180-12
8x =168
Divide each side by 8
8x/8 = 168/8
x =21
Answer: the option A.
The elimination method consist is adding the two equations in a way that one variable be eliminated..
In order to do that you might have to manipulate on of the equations prior to add the two equations.
In this case, ff you multiply the second equation by - 1 you will get
- x - y = - 4
which you can add to the first equation
2x + y = 8 to eliminate the y.
Solve x+4y = 13 for x by subtracting 4y from both sides.
We end up with x = -4y+13.
Since x and -4y+13 are the same, we can replace every x in the first equation with -4y+13
2x-3y = -29
2( x ) - 3y = -29
2( -4y+13 ) - 3y = -29 ... x is replaced with -4y+13
The answer is choice B
