The first set of parentheses is unnecessary, so just drop it.
The second set of parentheses has a negative sign to its left.
To simplify the second set of parentheses, change every sign inside the parentheses. Then combine like terms.

<span>(–x – 2) – (4x + 3) =

= - x - 2 - 4x - 3

= -x - 4x - 2 - 3

= -5x - 5

2x+3y=19 // 6x+2y=22​
zvonat [6]

Answer:

(2, 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x + 3y = 19 → (1)

6x + 2y = 22 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by - 3 and adding to (2) will eliminate the x- term

- 6x - 9y = - 57 → (3)

Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate x

0 - 7y = - 35

- 7y = - 35 ( divide both sides by - 7 )

y = 5

Substitute y = 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

2x + 3(5) = 19

2x + 15 = 19 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

2x = 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 2

solution is (2, 5 )

Solve for m. (-11/6) + m = -2/9
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

m = \frac{29}{18}

Step-by-step explanation:

=> (-11/6) + m = -2/9

Adding 11/6 to both sides

=> m = -\frac{2}{9} + \frac{11}{6}

LCM = 18

=> m = \frac{-4+33}{18}

=> m = \frac{29}{18}
