Solve for the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.
Point Form: (3,2)
Equation form:
x = 3
y = 2
You need to factor the radicals into products of radicals, and when factoring you should keep in mind you want to obtain perfect square roots. So √125 = √5*√25 and squareroot 25 has a definite answer of 5, so ∛125=∛5×∛25=5×√5. You want to follow the general pattern of factoring perfect squares to obtain a number outside the radical which can be multiplied by the current coefficient
1. <u><em>a=-1+b/7 is the right answer.</em></u> First you had to add by b from both sides of equation, and it gave us,
. And then simplify, and it gave us,
. Divide by 7 from both sides of equation, and it gave us,
. Finally simplify, and it gave us the answer is a=-1+b/7 is the right answer.

2. <em><u>a=-b-1/2 is the right answer.</u></em> First you had to add by 2b from both sides of equation, and it gave us,
. And then simplify, and it gave us,
. Next you can also divide by -4 from both sides of equation, and it gave us,
. Finally simplify, and it gave us the answer is a=-b-1/2 is the right answer. Hope this helps! And thank you for posting your question at here on brainly, and have a great day. -Charlie

The proportion that Alexandra can use to find r is 9 cups of water and 4 cups of dry rice
If Alexandra uses 12 cups of water and 6 cups of dry rice to make 18 cups of cooked rice, this can be expressed as:

To get the proportion "r" for the amount of dry rice to use to make 4 cups of cooked rice, we can write:

Divide both expressions:

Hence the proportion that Alexandra can use to find r is 9 cups of water and 4 cups of dry rice

I used a app, I also assumed that the “2x2” of the equation meant 2x^2
