Linear combination method just means to add the equations so that one variable with cancel. In this case the a values are already set up so that they will cancel.
2a + 3b = 1
-2a + b = 11
4b = 12
b = 3
now put 3 back into either of the original equations and solve for a.
2a + 3(3) = 1
2a + 9 = 1
2a = -8
a = -4
(-4,3)
Answer:
This conversion of 2 weeks to seconds has been calculated by multiplying 2 weeks by 604,800 and the result is 1,209,600 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:
.20 is 20% of 100 and there is 5 boxes and 5 times 20 = 100
Step-by-step explanation:
6k + 12 + 9=9
6k + 12 = 9 - 9
6k + 12 = 0
12 = -6k
12/-6 = -6k/-6
2/-1 = k
k = -2
solution is (x, y ) → (- 1, 4 )
y + 2x = 2 → (1)
y + 4x = 0 → (2)
subtract equation (1) from (2) to eliminate term in y
(y - y ) + (4x - 2x ) = (0 - 2 )
2x = - 2 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = - 1
substitute x = - 1 in either (1) or (2) and solve for y
(1) → y - 2 = 2 ( add 2 to both sides )
y = 4
solution is (x, y ) → (- 1, 4 )
