  (2x -5)/78 = 12/72 . . . . . . fill in given values

  2x -5 = 78(12/72) = 13 . . . multiply by 78

Solve for x and y <br> x+y=1<br> 2y-x=8
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

(- 2, 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x + y = 1 → (1)

2y - x = 8 → (2)

Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the x- term

(x - x) + (y + 2y) = (1 + 8), that is

3y = 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = 3

Substitute y = 3 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting y = 3 in (1)

x + 3 = 1 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

x = - 2

Solution is (- 2, 3 )

Convert 1.46 radian angle into degrees. Round decimal answers to nearest tenth. Use 3.14 for pi.
natulia [17]

Answer:

83.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

180° : pi

180 : 3.14

X : 1.46

180/3.14 = X/1.46

X = 1.46 × 180/3.14

X = 83.6942675159

X = 83.7°
