Solve: y=3x and x+y=20​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ira Lisetskai [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 5, y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Use substitution to solve the system of equations.

We'll replace y in x + y = 20 with 3x, since y = 3x.

x + 3x = 20

Combine like terms

4x = 20

Divide by 4 on both sides

x = 5

Now to solve for y (don't forget!)

We'll plug x = 5 back into one of the original equations

y = 3(5) = 15

Check first equation:

15 = 3(5)

15 = 15

Check second equation:

5 + 15 = 20

20 = 20

Ok I understand how you were confused by how they worded it but the two types of digits that are the same are the 9 in the thousands place and the nine in the ten thousands place.
The digit that is ten times bigger than the other is the 9 in the ten thousands place. I already toldyou the values I n each place.

Benito wrote the equations shown about the figure. Explain Benito’s errors.
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

  • Benito's error was stating that the correspongind sides and angles are equal (=) instead of stating that they are congurent (≅).

Explanation:

In geometry two different figures (segments, angles, polygons ,...) are not said to be equal but congruent.

Congruent means that they have the same measure but not that they are equal in other senses.

The use of equal is applied to numbers or variables),so you can tell x = 2, 3 = 3, A = πr², but you should not say segment AB is equal to segment BC. Instead you say segment AB ≅ segment BC, which is segment AB is congruent to segment BC.

Of course, you still can use the word equal (symbol =) if you state that you are talking about measures.

This also can help you

  • Correct: segment  AB ≅ segment BC  
  • Correct: legth of segment AB = length of segment BC
  • Incorrect: segment AB = segment BC

Segment AB and segment BC are not equal because they are two different segments. They are congruent because they have the same length.

Note: the bars shown over the letters AB, BC, AD, DC, mean segment.
