Answer:

Elga's age is 23

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we need to make our equation.

2x+x=69

In this equation, 2x is Alvin's age, while Elga's age is x. The 69 is the sum of their ages.

Combine the like terms in this equation.

3x=69

Divide both sides by 3

3/3x=69/3

x=23

Elga's age is 23, but we still need to check to make sure we are correct.

To do this, plug in 23 for x.

2(23)+23=69

46+23=69

69=69

Do we get a true statement? Yes, so we are correct.

<1 and <2 are supplementary angles. m <1 is 4y+7, and m<2 is 9y+4. Find m<2.
Yuliya22 [10]

Okay, so supplementary angles = 180 degrees.

Starting equation : 4y + 7 + 9y + 4 = 180

Combine like terms : 13y + 11 = 180

Subtract 11 from both sides : 13y = 169

Divide 13 from both sides : y = 13

Insert y value into original m<2 equation : 9(13) + 4

Solve : 121 degrees


If you want to check your work, all you have to do is insert y value into original m<1 equation and then add both m<1 and m<2. If they equal 180, your answer is correct.

4(13) + 7 = 59

59 + 121 = 180

Help me please this is for a math test. <br> Thank you

Answer:

x + 3y = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

m is the slope = rise / run:

rise = 1

run = 3

the line is downhill so its negative

m = - 1 / 3

b is the y intercept which is when the line cross over the y axis: - 4

y = - 1/3x - 4

multiply both sides by 3

3y = -1x - 12

add x to both sides

x + 3y = -12
