Solve the system of equations by multiplying and adding. Enter the solution as an ordered pair.
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

(x, y) = (- 3, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

5x + 2y = - 7 → (1)

4x - y = - 16 → (2)

multiply all terms in (2) by 2

8x - 2y = - 32 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term

(5x + 8x) + (2y - 2y) = (- 7 - 32)

13x = - 39 ( divide both sides by 13 )

x = - 3

Substitute x = - 3 into either (1) or (2) and solve for y

substituting in (1) gives

(5 × - 3) + 2y = - 7

- 15 + 2y = - 7 ( add 15 to both sides )

2y = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 4

solution is (- 3, 4 )

Simplify the polynomial expressions by combining like terms, and then multiply the resulting
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

The simplified expression is

20x^2 - 33x - 27

Step-by-step explanation:

(6x - 9 - 2x)(8 + 5x - 5)​

We must first rewrite the expression as a product of two binomials.

This can be done by adding like terms

(6x - 9 - 2x)(8 + 5x - 5)​

We have,

(4x-9)(5x+3)

Multiplying the resulting binomial expression

(4x-9)(5x+3)

(20x^2+12x-45x-27)

Add the like terms

20x^2-33x-27

The simplified expression is

20x^2 - 33x - 27

Twenty x squared minus thirty-three x minus twenty-seven

Please help meeee ………..
Len [333]

Answer:

  x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equality of bases property says powers of the same base will be equal if and only if the powers are equal. This property is used to solve exponential equations.

<h3>Application</h3>

  \dfrac{(2)^x}{2}=16\qquad\text{copy of the original equation}\\\\2\times\dfrac{(2)^x}{2}=2\times16\qquad\text{multiply by 2 to isolate the base}\\\\2^x=32\qquad\text{simplify}\\\\2^x=2^5\qquad\text{rewrite the constant as a power of 2}\\\\\boxed{x=5}\qquad\text{use the Equality of Bases Property}

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

Equating the exponents is fully equivalent to taking the logarithm of both sides of the equation, to that base.

  \log_2(2^x)=\log_2(2^5)\ \Longrightarrow\ x=5
