Answer:

Let the number be x

so, x/4 = x-3

x = 4(x-3)

x= 4x-12

x-4x = -12

-3x = -12

x= 12/3

x = 4

Step 1.) Multiply both sides of the equation by -6

step 2.) Sum the equations vertically to eliminate at least one variable

step 3.) Divide both sides of the equation by

step 4.) Substitute the given value of into the equation x - 2y = 10

step 5.) Solve the equation for x

step 6.) The possible solution of the system is the ordered pair (x , y)

step 7.) Check if the given ordered pair is the solution of the system of equations

step 8.) Simplify the equalities

step 9.) Since all of the equalities are true, the ordered pair is the solution of the system


So your answer would end up being (40/13 , -45/13) !! Hope that helps you out :D !!

Answer:

length =

2x - 1

width =

x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

here we go,

=》

2x {}^{2}  + 13x - 7

=》

2 {x}^{2}  + 14x - x - 7

=》

2x(x + 7) - 1(x + 7)

=》

(2x - 1)(x + 7)

here, we got

the dimensions as :-

(Picture) MULTIPLYING POLYNOMIALS AND SIMPLIFYING EXPRESSIONS PLEASE HELP!!!!
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

  • -32x² +8x -8
  • See below about the process

Step-by-step explanation:

The simplified expression is ...

  3x(x -12x) +3x² -2(x -2)²

  = 3x(-11x) +3x² -2(x² -4x +4) . . . . . simplify contents of parentheses

  = -33x² +3x² -2x² +8x -8 . . . . . . . .eliminate parentheses

  = (-33 +3 -2)x² +8x -8 . . . . . . . . . . group the coefficients of like terms

  = -32x² +8x -8
