You can plug -x - 1 for y in the first equation
2x - (-x - 1) = 10
2x + x + 1 = 10
Combine
3x = 9
Divide
x = 3
Plug 3 for x in any equation ( I'll use th second equation )
y = - (3) - 1
y = - 3 - 1 = -4
x = 3 ; y = -4
(3, -4)
8/10 of the students in the art class are painting.
1/2=5/10
5/10+3/10=8/10
<span>|7x-7|+3 = 4x+1 ⇒⇒⇒ add (-3) to both sides
</span>
<span>∴ |7x-7| = 4x - 2
</span>
According to the absolute rule
∴ 7x - 7 = 4x - 2 OR -(7x - 7) = 4x - 2
7x - 4x = 7 - 2 l 7x - 7 = -4x + 2
3x = 5 l 7x + 4x = 2 + 7
x = 5/3 l 11 x = 9 ⇒⇒⇒ x = 9/11
∴ x = 5/3 and 9/11
So, the correct answer is option <span>B. 5/3 and 9/11</span>
Answer:
A. -2
Step-by-step explanation:
-25p - 2 = 48
First, add 2 to both sides
That gives you
-25p = 50
Then, divide both sides by -25. Then that leaves the answer.. p = -2
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
8(4-x) = 7x + 2
1) Distribute : 32 - 8x = 7x + 2
2) Subtract 32 : -8x = 7x - 30
3) Subtract 7x : -15x = -30
4) Divide 15 : x = 2 :)
