How to solve with elimination: with the equations on the top, add the number on top and bottom if they share a variable such as x. do the rest for all of the numbers.
Answer:
(0, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 3x - 3
y = x - 3
In the solution to the system of equations, y is the same number for both of those functions. So 3x - 3 = x - 3.
Then solve for x:
3x - 3 = x - 3
Add 3 to both sides
3x = x
Subtract x from both sides
2x = 0
Divide both sides by 2
x = 0
Now that you have x, substitute it in one of the equations:
y = 3x - 3
y = 3(0) - 3
y = -3
x is 0 and y is -3, so the solution to the equation is (0, -3)
Estimating is an educated guess, so 3/8 is just less than half, and 1/12 is just a bit more than 0. So you could estimate that 3/8 + 1/12 = roughly 1/2
<span> if you add 3/8 and 1/12 you get 11/24</span>
I just took the test online. The answer is $8.05. Hope this helps!
