Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
First solve it:
Subtract the x's from both sides
2y = -3x +8
2y = -5x +2
Divide by two
y= -1.5x + 4
y = -2.5x +1
set them equal to each other:
-1.5x +4 = -2.5x +1
Add 2.5 x to both sides
1x +4 = 1
x +4 = 1
subtract 4 from both sides
x = -3
216 sequences are possible
1a) 8 / (1/2) = 16 * 3 = 48
1b) 3sqrt(49) = 3 * 7 = 21
1c) (5+2)(-8) / (-2)^3 -3
(7*-8) / (-8 -3)
-56/-11
56/11
