Answer:
x = 1.5
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
to solve this system of equation using the substitution methods we say let
2x+3y=12................................... equation 1
y=x+1.5..................................... equation 2
substitute equation 2 into equation 1
2x+3y=12................................... equation 1
2x + 3( x + 1.5) = 12
2x + 3x + 4.5 = 12
5x + 4.5 = 12
collect the like terms
5x = 12 - 4.5
5x = 7.5
divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 5
5x/5 = 7.5/5
x = 1.5
put x = 1.5 into equation 2
y=x+1.5..................................... equation 2
y = 1.5 + 1.5
y = 3
therefore the value of x = 1.5 and y = 3 respectively.

Answer: A three-sided polygon is a triangle.
There are several different types of triangle (see diagram), including: Equilateral – all the sides are equal lengths, and all the internal angles are 60°. Isosceles – has two equal sides, with the third one a different length.
Step-by-step explanation:
2x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0..divide by 2
x^2 + 4x - 6 = 0
x^2 + 4x = 6...add 4 to both sides of the equation
x^2 + 4x + 4 = 6 + 4
(x + 2)^2 = 10....<== ur constant is 10
x + 2 = (+-)sqrt 10
x = -2 (+ - ) sqrt 10
x = -2 + sqrt 10
x = -2 - sqrt 10
