You add two equations together to eliminate a variable. This particular problem is nice, because it's already setup to eliminate X.
3x - 4y = 9
<span>-3x + 2y = 9
</span>
When we add these two together, 3x - 3x cancels each other out, leaving us with 0x, or nothing.
We continue with -4y + 2y (leaves us with -2y) and 9+9 (18).
-2y = 18
18/-2 = -9.
Now we have y = -9, and we can go back into the problems to solve for x.
<span>3x - 4(-9) = 9
</span>
3x + 36 = 9.
3x = -27
x = -9.
Confirm with the final equation:
-3(-9) + 2(-9) = 9
27 - 18 = 9
9 = 9 --- Confirmed.
Answer:
Jonah needs 12 feet of electrical wire.
Step-by-step explanation:

cross multiply
12 yard × ft = 1 yard x
12÷1=12
12 feet of wire.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We can take 2 arbitrary points in the graph and solve for slope using the formula shown below.
<u>Note:</u> we will use the 2 points (2,-3) & (-3,1)
Where x_1 = 2, y _1 = -3 and x _ 2 = -3 and y _ 2 = 1
The formula:
Let's plug the numbers and find the slope:
Hence, thsi is the slope.

Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
peter answer 24 which 12 he got right that he got 50% so that half of the questions so another half would be 12
