The answer a
Because that’s what I said
An equvilent equation
remember you can do anything to an equation as long asyou do it to both sides
assuming yo have
x+y=1 and
x-3y=9
mulitply both by 2
2x+2y=2
2x-6y=18
those are equvilent
ok, solve initial
x+y=1
x-3y=9
multiply first equation by -1 and add to 2nd equation
-x-y=-1
<u>x-3y=9 +</u>
0x-4y=8
-4y=8
divide both sides by -4
y=-2
sub back
x+y=1
x-2=1
add 2
x=3
x=3
y=-2
(3,-2)
if we test it in other one
2x+2y=2
2(3)+2(-2)=2
6-4=2
2=2
yep
2x-6y=18
2(3)-6(-2)=18
6+12=18
18=18
yep
solution is (3,-2)
A. You can factor it to those terms
Answer:
-1.8 =x
Step-by-step explanation:
12(x+3)=-8x
Distribute
12x +36 = -8x
Subtract 12x from each side
12x-12x +36 = -8x-12x
36 = -20x
Divide each side by -20
36/-20 = -20x/-20
-9/5 = x
Changing to decimal form
-1.8 =x
