6x+2y=8

<u>(-) x+2y=-2</u>

<u>5x=10</u>

5

x=2

x+2y=-1

2+2y=-1

<u>-</u><u>2</u><u> -</u><u>2</u>

<u>2y=-</u><u>3</u>

2

y=-3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. multiply the first equation by 2 to make y equal to each other.
  2. subtract to eliminate y
  3. divide by 5 to get x

How many unique ways are there to arrange the letters in a word OPAL.
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

24.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the factorial function to find the number of unique arrangements in a word.

There are 4 unique characters in 'OPAL'. As such, 4! = 24.

In the case that there were repeating characters, such as 'OPALA', then we would divide by the factorial of the number of repeating letters. That looks something like this:

\frac{5!}{2!} = 60

Hope this helped.

What is the justification for the first step in proving the formula for factoring the sum of cubes?
Anna11 [10]

Explanation:

The formula isnt correctly written, it should state:

a^3+b^3 = (a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2)

You have to start from (a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2)  and end in a³+b³. On your first step, you need to use the distributive property.

(a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2) = a*(a^2-ab+b^2) + b*(a^2-ab+b^2)

This is equal to

a*a^2-a*(ab) + a*b^2 + b*a^2-b*(ab) + b*b^2 = a^3 - a^2b + ab^2 +ba^2 -b^2a +b^3

Note that the second term, -a²b, is cancelled by the fourth term, ba², and the third term, ab², is cancelled by the fifht term, -b²a. Therefore, the final result is a³+b³, as we wanted to.

Find the common ratio and the next term for the sequence shown. Express your answers as fractions or as decimals.
Cerrena [4.2K]
The common ratio of the sequence is calculated by dividing the second term by the first term or dividing the third term by the second term. That is,
                               r = 250 / 333 = 0.75
or                            r = 187 / 250 = 0.748 = 0.75
To get the next term, we multiply 187 by 0.75 giving us an answer of 140.25 or 141.
