2a plus 6 equl eight i hink so
The answers for the problems are: 6. -18
9. 6
12. -40
Well if you write the statement as an equation then that will get you
3*x^2 = 12x
Now we just solve. You can divide both sides by 3x and that gives you x = 4
Answer:
(-2,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution is the point at which the two lines intersect, (-2,4). That point is the only one that satisfies (works) in both equations:
y = x + 6
4 = -2 + 6
and
y = -0.5x + 3
4 = -0.5(-2) + 3
4 = 1 + 3
====
You can also solve it algebraically:
y = x + 6
y = -0.5x + 3
-0.5x + 3 = x + 6 [Use the value of y from the second equation in the first equation]
-1.5x = 3
x = -2
Use this is y = -2 + 6:
y = 4
(-2,4)
