The way i did that in middle school was plot the points then find the slpoe and work it out from there
Answer:
(5, - 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x + 3y = - 2 → (1)
3x - y = 19 → (2)
Multiplying (2) by 3 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term
9x - 3y = 57 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y
(2x + 9x) + (3y - 3y) = (- 2 + 57), that is
11x = 55 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 5
Substitute x = 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (1)
2(5) + 3y = - 2
10 + 3y = - 2 ( subtract 10 from both sides )
3y = - 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )
y = - 4
Solution is (5, - 4 )
Answer:
-1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
When dividing 2 by -12 you would use 2 as the numerator and -12 as the denominator and then simplify it by dividing both by two to end up with -1/6
Plug in -3 for x into the equation.
(1/4)^-3
And solve
(1/4)^-3 = 64
