You idiot you answered your own question!
X = -6y - 12
4x + 5y =-39
4x + 5y = -39
-4(-6y - 12) + 5y = -39
-4(-6y) + 4(12) + 5y = -39
24y + 48 + 5y = -39
29y + 48 = -39
29y = -87
y = -3
x = -6y - 12
x = -6(-3) - 12
x = 28 - 12
x = 6
(x, y) = (6, -3)
Answer:
PR = 5 because LP + PR = LR according to the Segment Addition Postulate, and 7 + 5 = 12 using substitution
Step-by-step explanation:
The naming of the segments suggests that point P is between L and R, so that ...
LP + PR = LR
This corresponds to the last choice.
_____
<em>Comments on the alternate interpretation</em>
On the other hand, if point L is between P and R, then the segments are PL and LR. The Segment Addition Postulate would tell you that ...
PL + LR = PR
The Reflexive Property of Congruence would tell you that PL = LP. The Substitution Property would tell you LP can be substituted into this equation, making it ...
LP + LR = PR
and by the commutative property, ...
LR + LP = PR.
Multiple properties of addition and congruence are involved with this interpretation, which more or less matches the third choice. That is, the simple explanation of answer choice 3, by itself, is insufficient to explain why the length of PR should be considered to be 19, not 5.
I think the answer is 5.
y = kx is the equation for direct proportionality. I’m guessing your “q” is the “y”, because 35 is easily divisible by 7.
35 = 7x
x = 5
Here is the solution:
0.59 * 10 = $5.90
0.99 * 5 = $4.95
$5.90 - $4.95 = $0.95
You would save 0.95$ if you bought
10 candy bars at the sale price
rather than at the regular price. I am hoping that this answer has
satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if
you would like, feel free to ask another question.
