Answer:

When solving, Jacob did not distribute properly.

Explanation:

Let's talk about 5(x + 2). The correct distribution would be 5x + 10. Jacob distributed 5 into x correctly and got 5x, however he did not distribute the 5 into 2 properly. It should have been 10, however it stayed as 2.

Jacob should be more careful when distributing, and make sure to distribute into EVERY term inside the parentheses.

How do I do this? Please help!
const2013 [10]

I already answered this question, if you look back in your questions you should find this answered along with another one. I'll do it again just in case you don't find it.

Answer:

{y,x} = {-4,-2}

Expanation:

Solve by Substitution :

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  y

 [1]    y = 2x

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [2]

  [2]    -2•(2x) - 8x = 24

  [2]     - 12x = 24

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  x

  [2]    12x = - 24

  [2]    x = - 2

// By now we know this much :

   y = 2x

   x = -2

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y

   y = 2(-2) = -4
