<span>Setting expressions equal to one another gives us an equation.
In an equation, our goal is to isolate the variable; we must "undo" everything that has been done to the variable. We work backward; the last thing done to the variable will be the first thing we undo.
We "undo" things by performing the opposite operation; for instance, if the last thing done to our variable was that 3 was subtracted from it, we would undo that first by adding 3 to both sides.
What we do to one side we must do to the other in order to preserve equality.
We would continue this process of working backward until the variable was isolated; this would give us our solution.</span>
Answer:
x=1, y=-1. (1, -1).
Step-by-step explanation:
-x+2y=-3
-8x-3y=-5
----------------
-8(-x+2y)=-8(-3)
-8x-3y=-5
------------------------
8x-16y=24
-8x-3y=-5
-----------------
-19y=19
y=19/-19
y=-1
-x+2(-1)=-3
-x-2=-3
-x=-3+2
-x=-1
x=1
(1, -1)
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
-2 x _ = -14
2(7)=14
(-)x(-) = +
-2(7)=-14
If it is to the tenth, then you have to look at the hundredth place, if the number in the hundredth place is over 5 or 5, then you have to make the number in the tenth place move up one digit if it isn't over 5 or 5, then you don't do anything
Answer:
Let's complete the square first.
y = x² + 6x + 3
= (x² + 6x + 9) - 6
= (x + 3)² - 6
Therefore, the vertex is (-3, -6) and since the coefficient of (x + 3)² is positive, the vertex is a minimum.
