Given that point j is the incenter of triangle nop, find jk if jm = x-2 and jl = 3x

Which 2 equations would you use to solve this system?

slega [8]

Answer:

x-y=4

and

x+y=32 is your equation

difference of two number =x-y is equal to 4

sum of two number=x+y is equal to 32

x-y=4.......(1)

x+y=32.......(2)

adding equation 1 and 2

x-y +x+y=4+32

2x=36

x=36/2=16answer

substituting value of y in equation 1

16-y=4

16-4=y

y=12 answer

Write three different equations that have x=5 as a solution

svlad2 [7]

Answer: The three different equations will be

$x+3=8\\\\2x-8=2\\\\4x-4=16$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to write three equation that have x = 5 as a solution:

1) First equation will be

$x+3=8\\\\x=8-3\\\\x=5$

2) Second equation will be

$2x-8=2\\\\2x=8+2\\\\2x=10\\\\x=\frac{10}{2}\\\\x=5$

3) Third equation will be

$4x-4=16\\\\4x=16+4\\\\4x=20\\\\x=\frac{20}{4}\\\\x=5$

Hence, the three different equations will be

$x+3=8\\\\2x-8=2\\\\4x-4=16$

The table shows the proportional relationship between a hedgehog's weight loss and the number of days of hibernation. How much

pantera1 [17]

Using the principle of proportional relationship, the amount of weight lost by hedgedog in 120 days is 3.6 oz

Proportional relationships are defined thus :

y = kx
k = constant of proportionality

Taking a piar of points :

-0.24 = 8k

Divide both sides by 8

(-0.24/8) = k

k = - 0.03

Hence, hedgedog loses weight at a rate of - 0.03 oz per day.

The amount of weight lost in 120 days :

The proportional relationship = y = - 0.03x

Substitute x into the equation

y = -0.03(120)

y = - 3.6 oz

Therefore, the amount of weight lost in 120 days is 3.6 oz.
