Mathematics

-1/3x-4/3y=2

1/3x-2/3y=4

First realize that the coefficient of x is -1/3 and 1/3 which can be eliminated with addition

Adding the two equations together gets

-6/3y=6

Simplify

-2y=6

y=-3

Substitute back into original equation

1/3x-2/3(-3)=4

1/3x+2=4

1/3x=2

x=6

Answer

x=6, y=-3

Check answer

-1/3(6)-4/3(-3) =?= 2

                -2+4=2

                     2=2

Done!

Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram can be misleading because angle A does not correspond to angle F. Rather angle F corresponds to angle C.

In congruent triangles, corresponding angles have the same measure. The sum of angles is always 180°, so we have ...

... m∠A +m∠B +m∠C = 180°

... (3x+6)° +50° +(9x -68)° = 180°

... 12x -12 = 180 . . . . . divide by °, collect terms

... x -1 = 15 . . . . . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of x

... x = 16 . . . . . . . . . . . add 1

_____

<em>Check</em>

m∠A = (3x+6)° = 54°

m∠C = (9x -68)° = 76°

The total of angles is 54° +50° +76° = 180°. . . . . as it should be

ake and Nico both measured their thumbs. Jake’s thumb is 55 millimeters long. Nico’s thumb is 5.7 centimeters long. Who has the
qaws [65]

Answer:

Nico

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to convert both to the same units! Think about the units: we have millimeters and centimeters. There are 10 millimeters in a centimeter, so

55 mm = 5.5 cm

We just had to move the decimal point!

Now compare the two measurements in cm. 5.5 and 5.7: which is greater? Look at the tenths place: 5<7, so 5.7 is greater and Nico’s thumb is longer!
