1/4 of 268 is basically 268/4 or 268 divided by 4
268 / 4 = 67
so 1/4 of 268 is 67
Answer:
(-2, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equations:
-3x + 2y = 12
x = 2y - 8
You can 'substitute' the expression '2y - 8' for the value of 'x' in the first equation and solve for 'y':
-3(2y - 8) + 2y = 12
Distribute: -6y + 24 + 2y = 12
Combine like terms: -4y + 24 = 12
Subtract 24 from both sides: -4y + 24 - 24 = 12 - 24 or -4y = -12
Divide both sides by -4: -4y/-4 = -12/-4 or y = 3
Use y = 3 to solve for 'x':
x = 2(3) - 8 or 6 - 8
x = -2
(-2, 3)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7x + 6 = 7x - 5
Collecting like terms
7x - 7x = -5 - 6
The x is canceled out so no solution
Answer:
I would say D. There is no logical explanation for the final answer but there is for everything else.
For A: Makes sense because 3x-2 are in parenthesis outside a number so you can multiply.
For B: Makes sense because you are allowed to add/subtract like terms but in this case only subtracting would make sense, (which is what they did) since you want to get all the like terms on one side.
For C: Makes sense because you are trying to simplify the equation, and they are both like terms (they are both numbers that have no letter attached to them) and they are on the opposite side making them able to be simplified.
For D: No idea what the point is.
