Since m + n = 7 we know m = 7-n. So now we have 2n - 3(7-n) = 6. From this we get n = -3. So now we know m - 3 = 7 so m = 10. So now we have 3(-3) + 2(10) = ? and this comes out as 11

<span>m + n = 7 then m = 7 - n
2n - 3m = 6
</span><span>
substitute </span>m = 7 - n into 2n - 3m = 6
2n - 3m = 6
2n - 3(7 - n) = 6
<span>2n - 21 + 3n = 6
5n - 21 = 6
5n = 27
n = 27/5
n = 5.4

</span><span>m + n = 7
</span><span>m = 7 - n
m = 7 - 5.4
m = 1.6

now you have m = 1.6 and n = 5.4
you can find the value of </span>3n - 2m<span>

</span>3n - 2m
=3(5.4) - 2(1.6)
= 16.2 - 3.2
= 13

What is the domain of the function y = RootIndex 3 StartRoot x minus 1 EndRoot?

finlep [7]

By definition of cubic roots and power properties, we conclude that the domain of the cubic root function is the set of all real numbers.

<h3>What is the domain of the function?</h3>

The domain of the function is the set of all values of x such that the function exists.

In this problem we find a cubic root function, whose domain comprise the set of all real numbers based on the properties of power with negative bases, which shows that a power up to an odd exponent always brings out a negative result.

<h3>Remark</h3>

The statement is poorly formatted. Correct form is shown below:

<em>¿What is the domain of the function </em> $y = \sqrt[3]{x - 1}$ <em>?</em>
