Answer:

a= -12 and b=36

Step-by-step explanation:

a+b=24 and 3a+b

a-3a+b=24

-2a+b-b=24

-2a/-2=24/-2

a= -12

then substitute the value of a in a+b=24 to get the value of b

so let see -12+b=24

b=24+12

b=36

we can check it by the equation -2a+b-b=24

-2(-12)+36-36=24

24=24 so as you have seen the answer is correct

thanks!!!

Jim ran 12 1/2 miles in 2 1/2 hours. How many hours for 1 mile?
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

1/5 hours i.e 0.2 hours (which is 12 mins)

Step-by-step explanation:

First note that 12 1/2 = 12.5, and 2 1/2 = 2.5.

To work out how many hours it takes hime to drive one mile, we divide the number of hours (2.5) by the number of miles (12.5),

i.e 2.5 ÷ 12.5

which equals 1/5 = 0.2 hours (= 12 mins).

Triangle G E F is shown with its exterior angles. Line G F extends through point B. Line F E extends through point A. Line E G e
Radda [10]

The measure of angle ∠EGF is 65°. And the measure of the angle ∠CGE is 115°.

<h3>What is the triangle?</h3>

A triangle is a three-sided polygon with three angles. The angles of the triangle add up to 180 degrees.

Triangle GEF is shown with its exterior angles.

Line GF extends through point B.

Line FE extends through point A.

Line EG extends through point C.

Angles ∠FEG and ∠EGF are congruent.

∠FEG = ∠EGF = x

Sides EF and GF are congruent.

Angle ∠EFG is 50° degrees.

∠EFG + ∠FGE + ∠GEF = 180°

                  50° + x + x = 180°

                               2x = 130°

                                 x = 65°

∠FEG = ∠EGF = 65°

Then angle ∠CGF will be

∠CGF + ∠FGE = 180°

   ∠CGF + 65° = 180°

             ∠CGF = 115°
