Substitution doesn't work for this, but elimination does. 
-6x-8y=-20 +6( x+6y=-6)
-6x-8y=-20 + 6x+36y=-36
-6x and 6x cancel each other, add -8 and 36 to get 28, and -20 and -36 to get -56.
28y=-56
divide by 28 on both sides.
Y= -2
Then substitute y into one of the equations.
x+6(-2)=-6
x-12=-6
x=6
The ordered pair is (6,-2).
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer:
We get value of the value of b = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Line AB passes through points A(−6, 6) and B(12, 3). If the equation of the line is written in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b, then m=m equals negative StartFraction 1 Over 6 EndFraction.. What is the value of b?
We have slope m: 
We need to find value of b (y-intercept)
Using the point A(-6,6) and slope  we can find b.
 we can find b.
Using slope-intercept form, putting values of m and x and y we get the value of b:

So, we get value of the value of b = 5
 
        
             
        
        
        
The entire yard is 36x54 so you would draw a rectangle with those measurements, since there is a border of 3 you should draw another rectangle in the middle with measurements 6 less than the original. 30x48
since you are finding the area of the walk, you would find the larger area, then subtract the smaller rectangle 
(36*54)-(30*48)
1944-1440
504 square feet of walk
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
sssssssssssssssi b
Step-by-step explanation:
 
        
             
        
        
        
A = L x W
L = W + 3
so equation
A = W (W + 3)
70 = W (W + 3)
or
W (W + 3) = 70
answer
D. last one
W (W + 3) = 70
