Answer:
(2,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the system:
y=x+2
y=3x-2.
This is already setup for substitution.
I'm going to replace my first y with what the second y equals.
That is, I'm going to write 3x-2=x+2.
Time to solve the following for x:
3x-2=x+2
Subtract x on both sides:
2x-2= 2
Add 2 on both sides:
2x. = 4
Divide both sides by 2:
x. = 2
Now that we know x=2 and we have an equation that relates x to y: either y=x+2 or y=3x-2, doesn't matter which we use, we can find y.
So we y=x+2 with x=2 which means y=2+2=4.
So the solution, the intersection, is (2,4).

Answer:
3⋅(5⋅x)
5⋅(x⋅3)
15x
Step-by-step explanation:
As the values are inside the brackets, it does not matter what side the (x3) is on, so 3⋅(5⋅x) is equivalent.
Multiplying the contents of the brackets in the third one (x * 3) by 5 gives the same value as 3 * (x * 5) so 5⋅(x⋅3) is also equivalent.
On multiplying the brackets out:
5 * x = 5x
5x * 3 = 15x
So 15x is also equivalent.

Answer:
-1, -1.1, 0.9, 1
Step-by-step explanation:
If you change the fractions into decimals, 5/6=.83, 2/3=.67, 3/4=.75, you can see that 2/3 is the shortest
