36 x + 24 y = 60 just pretend the letters aren't there
A star is written to show multiplication. It is a replacement for a dot or a x which is what you probably learned to be the "times" sign. In upper level maths, the "x" is replaced with a " * " to make it more legible and to avoid confusion with the variable "x".
Answer:
i am good and really tired
Step-by-step explanation:
A
a) y+6x=5 if x= -1 then y+6(-1)=5 then y = 11
b) same thing if x = 3 then y+6(3)=5 y+18=5 subtract both sides by -18 and leave y on left then add 5+(-18)= 13 then y=13
B same as above
question (a) asks you to solve for y because x is -2
(b) asks you to solve for x because y is known
3x+2y=-6 if y = 3 you write 3x+2(3)=-6 3x+6=-6 move the +6 over to right side by subtracting 6 from both side 3x=-6 + -6 so 3x=-12 to get rid of the 3 and only leave the x you want to divide both side by 3 then x= -12/3 then the answer would be x=-4
