Help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o.o' you need skye @BulletWithButterflyWings

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

shes a geometry wiz. tho she makes it kind of complicated.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok @BulletWithButterflyWings can u help me out?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*hyperventilates*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Luigi0210 help me out here, man. ;-;

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

All 3 questions?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Well.. for the first one, do you know what a complementary angle is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Well figure it out, once you do we will move on.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its two angles (40° and 50°) are Complementary Angles, because they add up to 90°

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u there

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First, assign the variable 2 to x, and find the difference between the equations.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The first question, you have these equations: 3x+9 and 5x+9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i get that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To start off, we're going to use substitution. So for now, use the number 2 to replace x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6 & 4?

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Okay, taking over from where Skye was: Add the two equations together (3x+9)+(5x+9)=90 Can you solve this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

168

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

What..?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do i solve it?

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Combine like terms.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u show how to do it?

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

(3x+5x)+(9+9)=90

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok than what?

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

add everything..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did and got 168

OpenStudy (austinl):

Do I want to help and steal @Luigi0210 's thunder? Nah, my bromigo has this. I shall stand here as a cheerleader! *waves little pompom*

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

How did you get 168..?? And thanks Austin ;-;

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i added it all together

OpenStudy (austinl):

*waves pompom* Go LuiLui Go! And to add to thunder, you cant have variables and then just condense it down to a number. \((3\color{red}{x}+5\color{red}{x})+(9+9)=90\) However I may be wrong...

OpenStudy (austinl):

Yo, @tesla117 Anybody home?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i step away sorry

OpenStudy (austinl):

Can you solve that equation above?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how would i tho?!

OpenStudy (austinl):

\((3x+5x)+(9+9)=90\) Combine like terms and solve for x! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I forget how ud solve for x can u help me with that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u just give me da answer?

OpenStudy (austinl):

No. We don't do that here, it is against the rules. It really isn't that hard...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well to me it is for some rreason

OpenStudy (austinl):

Well, unless you are going to put forth the effort, I suppose I am done here.
