Oof this one is hard I think it’s 20 mm but I’m not sure
Substitution
y = 2x - 12
y = -x + 3
-x + 3 = 2x - 12
+ x + x
-----------------------------
3 = 3x - 12
+ 12 + 12
-----------------------
15 = 3x
------ ------
3 3
x = 5
y = 2(5) - 12
y = 10 - 12
y = -2
The final answer is (5,-2).
Question 2:
The answer is 21
The two angles are vertically opposite, which makes them equal and also means we can make an equation:
4x - 4 = 3x + 17
- 3x
x - 4 = 14
+ 4
x = 21
Question 3:
The answer is 23
Again, the angles are vertically opposite, so we can make them equal each other:
5x - 53 = 3x - 7
- 3x
2x - 53 = -7
+ 53
2x = 46
÷ 2
x = 23
I hope this helps!
Answer:
1. x=6
2. x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
1.

2.

<u>Written Explanation: </u>
1.
-2x(3x+9)=-54
-6x-`8=54 (Distributive property)
Add 18 to both sides
-6x=-36
Divide both sides by -6 (negative divided by a negative equals a positive)
x=6
2.
2(3x+4)-3x=35
6x+8-3x=35 (distributive property)
3x+8=35 (combine Iike terms and then subtract them 6x-3x=3x)
Subtract 8 from both sides
3x=27
Divide both sides by 3
x=9
9514 1404 393
Answer:
-7x -3
Step-by-step explanation:
(f -g)(x) = f(x) -g(x) = (-3x -5) -(4x -2)
(f -g)(x) = -3x -5 -4x +2 = (-3-4)x +(-5+2)
(f -g)(x) = -7x -3
