Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

find the value of y in the second equation

x + y = -2,

but y = -2-x as well

so take the value that we have found for (x) into the first equation

2x + 2(-2-x)= 8

-2x + -4-2x = 8

-4x-4=8

-4x = 12

x=-3,

now just substitute x value into either equation

x + y =-2

-3 + y = -2

y =1

If y varies inversely as x2 and y = 100 when

love history [14]

Ans: (c)

y = k/x^2

when y = 100, x = 1
100 = k/1^2
k = 100

when x = 2,
y = 100/2
= 50

Find the greatest common factor 28 and 12<br><br> use the GCF to factor 28+12.

fgiga [73]

Answer:

(a) 4

(b) 4 * (7+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Let's first start by prime factorizing (finding the prime factors) 28 and 12:

12: 2*2*3

28: 2*2*7

We can see here they both share a common factor of 2*2, which is 4, therefore the GCF is 4.

(b) Factor a 4 out from the equation:

$4*(\frac{28}{4}+\frac{12}{4})$

This gives us:

4 * (7+3)
