Why does algernon show up at jack’s country house? question 1 options: he is pretending to be jack he is pretending to be ernest he is pretending to be bunbury he is pretending to be lane

The answer is: He is pretending to be Ernest.

In Oscar Wilde's "The Importance of Being Earnest," Algernon confronts Jack and the latter reveals that Ernest is his fictional irresponsible brother he pretends to be in order to have fun and disappear for a few days. Therefore, Algernon, who is deeply in love with Cecily, decides to show up at Jack's country state pretending to be Ernest.

substitute y = 2x - 4 to x + 2y = 12:

x + 2(2x - 4) = 12     use distributive property

x + (2)(2x) + () = 12

x + 4x - 8 = 12     add 8 to both sides

5x = 20     divide both sides by 5

x = 4

put the value of x to the first equation:

y = 2(4) - 4

y = 8 - 4

y = 4
