Answer:
b = 3 and a = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
You have your given equation:
2a - 3b = -11
a + 3b = 8
You need to find what a and b is.
To find b:
2a - 3b = -11
-2a - 6b = -16
I multiplied a + 3b = 8 by -2. When you multiply a number you have to multiply all of them. You have to choose a number that would cancel out all of a.
So now your equation would look like this when you solve for b:
2a - 3b = -11
-2a - 6b = -16
-------------------
a - 9 = -27 then you divide -9 to -27 which is 3 so b = 3.
To find a:
2a - 3b = -11
a + 3b = 8
I multiplied a + 3b = 8 by -1 and 2a - 3b = -11 by -1 as well.
Your equation will look like this when you solve for a:
-2a + 3b = 11
-1a - 3b = -8
------------------
-3a = 3 then divide -3 to 3 which is -1 so a = -1.
Check to see if you have the correct answer by plugging in the number you got for a and b into the equation and solve.
1. 2(-1) -3(3) = -11
-2 - 9 = -11
2. -1 + 3(3) = 8
-1 + 9 = 8
M in this case stands for money, while d means dollars and x is the cost of the ice creams
m = d - x(2)

Answer:
width=3
Step-by-step explanation:
area=length X width
length=4 X width
=>area=4 X width X width
=>area=(2 X width)^2
=>36=(2 X width)^2
=>6=2 X width
=>width=3
Answer:
The answer is A. You just have to plug in.
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - y/3= 13
(2,-9) and (3,-6)
5(2) - -9/3 = 13
10 + 3 = 13
13 = 13 (true)
5(3) - -6/3= 13
15+ 2 = 13
17 = 13 (wrong)
Answer:
The 2nd option is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
The only numbers on a dice greater than 4 are 5 and 6, and we want to get the color blue, so the 2nd option is correct.
