Answer:
(x, y) = (8, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
You can substitute for x in the first equation:
3(-3y -1) +3y = 15
-6y = 18 . . . . . add 3 and simplify
y = -3 . . . . . . . divide by -6
x = -3(-3) -1 = 8 . . . . find x using the second equation
The solution to this system of equations is (x, y) = (8, -3).
When we factor out something, we divide the factor by the equation. For example if we were to factor 3 out of 6, It will be 3(2). We got this answer by dividing 3 and 6. Using this concept:
![\frac{-1}{4}[( \frac{-1}{2} / \frac{-1}{4}) - ( \frac{5}{4} y / \frac{-1}{4})]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B-1%7D%7B4%7D%5B%28%20%5Cfrac%7B-1%7D%7B2%7D%20%2F%20%5Cfrac%7B-1%7D%7B4%7D%29%20-%20%28%20%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B4%7D%20y%20%2F%20%20%5Cfrac%7B-1%7D%7B4%7D%29%5D%20%20)

Hope this helps!
10P4 = 10! / (10-4)! = 10*9*8*7 = 5040
9C4 = 9! / 5! 4! = 9*8*7*6 / 4*3*2*1 = 126
Answer:
3x
Step-by-step explanation:
Absolute value means the total distance from zero. So you get rid of any negative signs and then look at which number has the lowest value (which is the smallest number without any negative signs).
