Solve the system equations and choose the correct ordered pair <br><br> 3x+2y=12<br> 6x+3y=21
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

(2, 3).

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+2y=12

6x+3y=21    Multiply the first equation by 3 and the second by 2:

9x + 6y = 36

12x + 6y = 42        Subtract:

-3x = -6

x = -6/-3 = 2.

Plug x = 2 into the first equation:

3(2) + 2y = 12

2y = 12 - 3(2)

2y = 6

y = 3.

What is the difference between defined and undefined terms?
rodikova [14]

Answer:

An undefined term is a term that can't be defined so easily. There really isn't a definition to define such terms. Consider the word "the." We use the word "the" all of the time, but do we really know how to define the word "the?" "Am" is another word that can't be defined so easily.
