1. 23.5 x 2.3 = 54.05
when you are multiplying decimals you have to line up the decimal point.
example:
23.5
2.3
2. 12.34 x 4.321 = 53.32114
once again you need to line up your decimals when multiplying two decimals.
example: however I had to add a zero to the number 12.34 so everything would line up correctly. I hope you understand that.
12.340
4.321
3x = -5y -------------- (1)
6x - 7y = 17 --------- (2)
From (1):
3x = -5y
x = -5/3 y ---------- sub into (2)
6 (-5/3 y) - 7y = 17
-10y - 7y = 17
-17y = 17
y = -1 ------------ Sub into (1)
3x = -5 (-1)
3x = 5
x = 5/3
Ans: x = 5/3, y = -1

-z = 80
You cannot submit an equation with a negative letter ( -z ) so we have to cancel the negative.
To cancel negatives in the equation, we multiply both sides by -1.
-z * -1 = 80 * -1
z = -80
Answer: z = -80
A. (−3, 3)
<span>3x – 4y = 21
</span>3(-3) - 4(3) = 21
-21 = 21 >>>>> not equal
B. (−1, −6)
<span>3(-1) - 4(-6) = 21
</span>21 = 21 >>>>>>>>>>Equal
C. (7, 0)
<span>3(7) - 4(0) = 21
</span>21 = 21>>>>>>>>>>equal
D. (11, 3)
<span>3(11) - 4(3) = 21
</span>21 = 21 >>>>>>>>>equal
