The answer would be positive 24. The reason being is because of the fact that two negatives when multiplied cancel the negative. Also 12 * 2 is 24 so yeah
Answer:
-4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Always start with the parenthesis. (26/13) = 2
2. Then multiply. 2*-7 = -14
3. After, you add 14 to your precious answer (-14) then subtract 4.
-14 + 14 = 0 - 4 = -4
Answer : 
(1) 
Use FOIL method to mulitply (3x – 5)(3x – 5)

(2) 
Use FOIL method to mulitply (3x - 5)(3x + 5)

(3) 
Use FOIL method to mulitply -(3x + 5)(3x + 5)

(4) 
Use FOIL method to mulitply -(3x + 5)(3x - 5)

So equation 2 is true
Answer:
x + y = 36.....Equation 1
x = 7 + 2y...... Equation 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of:
Orange goldfish = x
Black gold fish = y
Anna has a total of 36 goldfish in her aquarium, some are orange and some are black.
x + y = 36.....Equation 1
The number of orange goldfish is 7 more than twice the number of black goldfish.
x = 7 + 2y...... Equation 2
We can rewrite this as:
x - 2y = 7..... Equation 2
The system of equations below that can be used to describe the number of black and orange goldfish in Anna's aquarium is :
x + y = 36.....Equation 1
x = 7 + 2y...... Equation 2
