3x+y=17

x+3y=-1
Multiply 3 to each side
x*3+3y*3=-1*3
3x+9y=-3
Use substitute property
3x+9y=-3
-
3x+y=17
=
8y=-20
Divided 8 to each side
8y/8=-20/8
y=-2.5

3x+y=17
Substitute y with -2.5
3x+(-2.5)=17
3x-2.5=17
Add 2.5 to each side
3x-2.5+2.5=17+2.5
3x=19.5
Divided 3 to each side
3x/3=19.5/3
x=6.5
Next,
3x+3y
Substitute x with 6.5 and y with -2.5
3(6.5)+3(-2.5)
=19.5-7.5
=12 is your final answer. Hope it help!

3x+y=17
=> 3x=17-y
Again, x+3y=-1
=> 3y= -1-x
now, 3x+3y= (17-y)+(-1-x)
                  = 17-y-1-x
                  = 16-x-y

{[20/(8+2)]^6+6}/(4^2/2)
Naddika [18.5K]
So for this problem we need to do order of operations so the very first step that we need to do here is (8+2) because that is the smallest enclosed symbols (8+2)=10 next divide by 20 because that is the next step in the equation which 20/10=2, so now we have {[2]^6+6} and due to order of operations the next step here is to take 2 to the power of 6 which is 64 so now we have {64+6} which is 70 so now we have 70/(4^2/2) and due to order of operations we do the parentheses first and that would mean that we do 4^2 because exponents come after parantheses like so,
70/(16/2) now we do 16/2 because its still inside the paranthesess so 16/2=8 so now we have 70/8 and that equals are end answer of 8.75 Enjoy!=)

Select all the correct answers. Which two inequalities can be used to find the solution to this absolute value inequality? 3|x +
ziro4ka [17]

The absolute value inequality can be decomposed into two simpler ones.

x < 0

x > -8

<h3></h3><h3>Which two inequalities can be used?</h3>

Here we start with the inequality:

3|x + 4| - 5 < 7

First we need to isolate the absolute value part:

3|x + 4| < 7 + 5

|x + 4| < (7 + 5)/3

|x + 4| < 12/3

|x + 4| < 4

The absolute value inequality can now be decomposed into two simpler ones:

x + 4 < 4

x + 4 > - 4

Solving both of these we get:

x < 4 - 4

x > -4 - 4

x < 0

x > -8

These are the two inequalities.
