Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
4x - 2(x - 2) = - 4 + 5x - 13 ← distribute left side and simplify
4x - 2x + 4 = 5x - 17
2x + 4 = 5x - 17 ( subtract 5x from both sides )
- 3x + 4 = - 17 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
- 3x = - 21 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = 7
Given:
must correctly answer 80% of the questions
correctly answered questions = 26
incorrectly answered questions = 4
unanswered questions = 15
Total questions = 26 + 4 + 15 = 45
45 * 80% = 36 required correctly answered questions.
36 - 26 = 10
Out of 15 remaining questions, 10 questions must be correctly answered for Heidi to advance to the next level.
In parallelograms, opposite sides are congruent, meaning that they are the same lengths. So, we have:
y - 4x = 9
-x + 4 = y
Add x to both sides of the second equation:
y + x = 4
y - 4x = 9
This is a system of linear equations. Solve by eliminating the y and subtracting the two equations:
5x = -5
x = -1
Use x to solve for y:
y + (-1) = 4
y = 5
So, x = -1 and y = 5.
