Linear combination method just means to add the equations so that one variable with cancel. In this case the a values are already set up so that they will cancel.
2a + 3b = 1
-2a + b = 11
4b = 12
b = 3
now put 3 back into either of the original equations and solve for a.
2a + 3(3) = 1
2a + 9 = 1
2a = -8
a = -4
(-4,3)
Answer:
28 i think.
Step-by-step explanation:
A week has 7 days so 7×2 is 14 and thats the same for the other week. Add those together and you'll get 28.
1. Since -4 doesn’t equal -2, we will use the first function. All you have to do is plug in -4 to x, and you should get
-3
2. -2=-2, so we will use the second function to get the answer of
3
3. Once again we will be using the first function, so just plug 5 into the answer to get
-7.5
Hope this helped :)
Answer:
7 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Montraie is driving on a long road trip
He currentlyhase 13 gallons of fuel in his car
Each hour that he drives, he uses up 1 gallon of fuel
Therefore the amount of gas that would be left after 6 hours can be calculated as follows
= 13-6
= 7
Hence there will be 7 gallons of fuel left
=
