Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = AB + BC

48 = 2x + 2 + 3x + 6

48 = 5x + 8

48 - 8 = 5x

40 = 5x

40/5 = x

8 = x

Finding BC

BC = 3x + 6

BC = 3(8) + 6

BC = 24 + 6

BC = 30

#2

Coordinate = -3 + 8 = 5

Answer:

  1. BC = 30
  2. 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that adding AB and BC will give us AC so we can create an equation and solve for x.

2x + 2 + 3x + 6 = 48

~Combine like terms

5x + 8 = 48

~Subtract 8 to both sides

5x = 40

~Divide 5 to both sides

x = 8

Now that we know the value of x, we can solve for BC.

= 3(8) + 6

= 24 + 6

= 30

I would assume 8 is the length of EG so we would add that value to -3 and find where that would be at on the number.

-3 + 8 = 5

Best of Luck!

Call T the price of the T-shirts and P de price of the jeans

Initially (without discount)
2T + P = 40

One month later (half prices)
2 (T/2) + 5(P/2) = 60
T +5P/2 = 60

To solve the system of equations multiply the second equation by 2 and substract it from the first equation

   2 T + 5P = 120
- (2 T +   P = 40 )
________________

           4P = 80

P = 80/4
P = 20

From 2T + P = 40

T = (40 - P) / 2 = (40 -20) / 2 = 20/2 = 10.

The price of a T-shirt is $10 and the price of a pair of jeans is $20.

How do solve angle PRQ and angle QRS
ruslelena [56]
PRQ and QRS should add to PRS

(3x-8)+(2x+6)=98
5x-2=98
5x=100
x=20

Plug 20 into both expressions:
3(20)-8
60-8
52 degrees= PRQ. <===========

2(20)+6
40+6
46 degrees= QRS. <==========
