Answer:

x = 7, y = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

23x -16 + 8x - 21 = 180 because they are supplementary angles

31x - 37 = 180

31x = 217

x = 7

23(7)-16 = 7y - 23 because they are vertical angles

168 = 7y

y = 24

If only two points are needed to determine a line why are three ordered pair solutions or points found for a linear equation

makvit [3.9K]

Two points give you a line. A third point (often called a check-point) is used to confirm the accuracy of your first two points. If all three line up, you have confirmed you have the correct line.

Find the square. (1/4A + 1/4B)^2<br><br> a) 1/16A^2 + 1/8AB + 1/16B^2<br> b) 1/4A^2 + 1/8AB + 1/4B^2

alisha [4.7K]

$(a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2$

$(\dfrac{1}{4}A + \dfrac{1}{4}B)^2 =$

$= \dfrac{1}{16}A^2 + \dfrac{1}{8}AB + \dfrac{1}{16}B^2$

Answer: A.

Another way to solve by factoring 1/4.

$(\dfrac{1}{4}A + \dfrac{1}{4}B)^2 =$

$= [\dfrac{1}{4}(A + B)]^2$

$= (\dfrac{1}{4})^2(A + B)^2$

$= \dfrac{1}{16}(A^2 + 2AB + B^2)$

$= \dfrac{1}{16}A^2 + \dfrac{1}{16}2AB + \dfrac{1}{16}B)^2$

$= \dfrac{1}{16}A^2 + \dfrac{1}{8}AB + \dfrac{1}{16}B)^2$
