Which of the following sentences uses a first-person point of view? Lois, angrier than she had ever been, stood abruptly and stormed out of the office. He was a small man, gray and sickly in complexion, but with eyes as alive as the sun. I woke up with a jump, startled by the clanging cry of my alarm. Jim, always the practical joker, moved towards her quietly.

I woke up with a jump, startled by the clanging cry of my alarm.

Explanation:

First-person point of view uses words like "I", and "My".

yes the first one is correct .

x=4, y=4

step-by-step explanation:

y=2x-4;

x+2y=12

we can use substitution since the first equation is solved for y

where ever you see y in the second equation, replace it with 2x-4

x + 2(2x-4) = 12

distribute the 2

x+4x-8 = 12

combine like terms

5x-8=12

add 8 to each side

5x-8+8=12+8

5x=20

divide by 5

5x/5 = 20/5

x =4

we still need to solve for y

y = 2x-4

we know x =4

y = 2(4) -4

y = 8-4

y=4
