Answer:
WX = 33
(x, y) = (2, 10)
Step-by-step explanation:
The hash marks tell you WX is a midline, so has the measure of the average of the two bases.
WX = (PQ +SR)/2 = (27 +39)/2 = 66/2
WX = 33
__
The hash marks also tell you ...
PW = WS
y +4x = 18 . . . . . . substitute the given expressions
and also
QX = XR
2y +x = 22 . . . . . substitute the given expressions
__
If you solve the first equation for y, you get ...
y = 18 -4x
Substituting that into the second equation gives ...
2(18-4x) +x = 22
36 -7x = 22 . . . . . . . simplify
14 = 7x . . . . . . . . . . . add 7x-22 to both sides
2 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 7
y = 18 -4(2) = 10 . . . find y using the above relation
The values of x and y are 2 and 10, respectively.
__
My favorite "quick and dirty" way to solve a set of linear equations is using a graphing calculator. It works well for integer solutions.
Answer:
Which do you need help with?
1. -6 is 4 units from -2 in the negative direction.
2. A. and D
Step-by-step explanation:
When adding negative numbers the negative will be more, but if you are adding positive and negative numbers, whichever sign (+ or -) has the bigger number then that is the sign of the answer.
Additive inverses are when two numbers are added together to equal zero. Therefore if you have -3+3, it would be an additive inverse.
Hope this helps.
It would help if you find common denominator... 12
so 1/3 times 4 both the numerator and denominator
4/12
and 3/4 times by 3 both the numerator and denominator
9/12
the recipe calls for 4/12 cup of oil and you have 9/12
two batches would be 8/12 cups of oil, you have 9/12 that is just enough for the recipe for two batches...
now to simplify it again, 1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3 and 2/3 is less than 3/4
the answer would be the upper right
4 x 5 x 5 is 100 if u distribute
Now 5 + 5 x 4 is 25
