Answer is x = 12 :)

Operations you're supposed to do in order to solve this equation are:

1. Combine like terms

2. Subtract 12 from both sides

3. Simplify

4. Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

5. Simplify.

Logan is 2 years older than Lindsey .Five years ago, the sum of their age was 30 . Find Lindsey's current age
marusya05 [52]
X is 2 more than y
x=2+y

5 years ago (x-5 and y-5)
sum is 30
x-5+y-5=30
x+y-10=30

x=2+y
sub 2+y for x
2+y+y-10=30
2y-8=30
add 8 to both sides
2y=38
divide both sides by 2
y=19

Lindsey is 19

I need help with this pls ASAP
olganol [36]

Answer:

It's B.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 × 10 + 2 = 30, not 50.

3 × 17 + 2 = 53, not 50.

Which means it has to be a number in between.

So, 152 and 156, are definitely not the answer. Which leaves 16.

The figure below shows a quadrilateral ABCD. Sides AB and DC are congruent and parallel: A quadrilateral ABCD is shown with the
Dominik [7]

Answer:

Therefore, the triangles ABD and CDB are congruent by SAS postulate, NOT SSS postulate, which would require 3 pairs of congruent sides.

Answer:2.Triangles ABD and CDB are congruent by the SAS postulate.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Side AB is parallel to side DC so the alternate interior angles, angle ABD and angle CDB, are congruent." is perfectly correct.

"Side AB is equal to side DC and DB is the side common to triangles ABD and BCD." this is also true

so by now we have 2 triangles, with 2 congruent sides, and the angles between these pairs of congruent sides, are also congruent
