Answer: 10
Step-by-step explanation:
add 2.75 to 0
We know that
if <span>(ax + b)(cx - d) = 0
then
</span><span>(ax + b)= 0-----> ax=-b------> x=-b/a
and
</span><span>(cx - d) = 0-----> cx=d------> x=d/c
therefore
the answer is the option
</span><span>C. -\frac{b}{a}</span>
Answer:
-12
Step-by-step explanation:
3 over 2 and 3 over 4 (1.5 and .75)
Let's solve this system of equations through substitution.
We have these two equations.
-7x-2y=14
6x+6y=18
Now let divide the second equation by 6.
6x+6y=18 ----> x+y=3
Next, let us move y to the right side of the equation.
x+y=3 -------> x=3-y (x equals 3-y)
Because we found out that what x is in terms of y, we can input that in for every instance of x in this equation below.
-7x-2y=14 becomes -7(3-y)-2y=14 (Why? Because x equals 3-y!)
We have a one variable equation now and can solve for y.
-7(3-y)-2y=14
-21+7y-2y=14
5y=35
y=7
Plug in 7 for y in any equation to find x.
x+y=3
x+7=3
x=-4
answer: x=-4, y=7
