Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Statement Reason </u>
∠5 and ∠7 are vertical angles Vertical angles theorem
m∠5 = m∠7 Definition of vertical angles
m∠5 = -2(3x - 4), m∠7 = 3(x - 3) - 1 Given
-2(3x - 4) = 3(x - 3) - 1 Substitution property of equality
-6x + 8 = 3x - 9 - 1 Distributive property
3x + 6x = 8 + 10 Addition property
9x = 18 Addition property
x = 18/9 Division property
x = 2 Proved
I’m pretty sure the answer is xy
4/8 simplified is 2/4 i think
Answer: 3x-x+2=4
Step-by-step explanation:
This appears to be just an expression we are simplifying, not an equation we are solving. I THINK you are saying that the expression looks like this:

If you rationalize the denominator, you would get this expression:

which, after simplifying, looks like this:

and that's as simple as I can see that one getting. You can't factor anything out of the denominator to cancel with the numerator, so I think you're as simple as you can get there!
