Hello,
Let's x² the square number
and 3*y the multiple of 3.

2 solutions : for (x,y) as integers : (-6,18) and (6,18)
but one solution for (x²,3y) as integers :<u> (36,54) </u>
The exponential function is given in the form

where a is the initial value and b is the multiplicative rate of change
So lets plug the first two values of the table in this function , we get
or

Now plug second

Divide equation 2 by equation 1

On simplifying we get

or

So the multiplicative rate of change of the function is

At least you can write it as the sum of half of it twice, that is:
2/x = 1/x + 1/x
whatever x number you have, for example:
2/5 = 1/5 + 1/5
But then, you can express a fraction in many different ways, for example again:
2/5 = <span>1/5 + 1/5 = 2/10 + 2/10
</span>= 1/10 + 1/10 + 1/10 + 1/10
so there are an infinite ways of expressing such a fraction.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Using elimination means you either add the two equations together or subtract them. You can first multiply the second equation by 2, so you get 4x - 6y = 24. Then you add the two equations together to get 9x = 42. Then you solve for x and then you can solve for y.
