a) x = 9
b) arc JK = 68
c) arc MJ = 112
d) arc LMK = 248

================================

Explanation:

Arcs JK and KL form a semicircle, so they add to 180 degrees

(arcJK) + (arcKL) = 180

(5x+23) + (17x-41) = 180

22x-18 = 180

22x = 180+18

22x = 198

x = 198/22

x = 9

Then you'll use this x value to find arc JK and arc KL

arc JK = 5x+23 = 5*9+23 = 68

arc KL = 17x - 41 = 17*9-41 = 112

Since central angles MNJ and KNL are vertical angles, this means minor arcs MJ and KL are congruent arcs. So arc MJ is also 112 degrees

Arc LMK is basically nearly everything of the full circle, but we exclude out the portion from L to K (the shorter distance)

arc LMK = (full circle) - (measure of minor arc LK)

arc LMK = 360 - 112

arc LMK = 248

What is the value of y in this system of equations: 3x + y = 9 y = –4x + 10 ?

Ahat [919]

3x + y = 9 (I)
y = –4x + 10 (II)
------------------------
 $\left \{ {{3x + y = 9 } \atop {y = -4x + 10 }} \right.$

Pass the incognito "4x" to the first term, changing the signal when changing sides.
-------------------------
simplify by (-1)
 $\left \{ {{3x + y = 9.(-1)} \atop {4x + y = 10 }} \right.$ 

-------------------------
 $\left \{ {{- 3x - \diagup\!\!\!\!y =-9} \atop {4x + \diagup\!\!\!\!y = 10}} \right. 
$

-------------------------
 $\left \{ {{- 3x = - 9} \atop {4x = 10}} \right.$ 

-----------
 $\boxed{x = 1}$ 

Substitute in equation (I) to find the value of "Y".

3x + y = 9 (I)
3*(1) + y = 9
3 + y = 9
y = 9 - 3
$\boxed{y = 6}$

Answer:
$\boxed{\boxed{ \left \ {{x=1} \atop {y=6}} \right. }}$

All of the x values are the same so it is not moving left or right.
The y values are changing by being 2 less than the original.
If you subtract 2 from each y value you get the new set of ordered pairs.

vodomira [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of hours to pull weed in a day

Let y = number of hours to now lawn in a day

It takes her an average of 3 hours to pull weeds and an average of 2.5 hours to mow the lawn. She can work no more than 8 hours a day.

This means

3x + 2.5y is lesser than/ equal to 8

She charges $50 to weed and $65 to mow the lawn.

This means she charges

50x +65y

She needs to cover her expenses of $120 to make a profit. This means she needs to earn an amount greater than or equal to $120

50x + 65y greater than or equal to 120
