Factor
b(b+12)=0
set to zero
b=0
b+12=0
b=-12
b=0 or -12
written as this way
b=-12,0
One decade is 10 years+ 8 years is 18 total years
18 minus 9 is 9 years
Hope this helps
Step-by-step explanation:
80+60+x+51= 180
191+x= 180
x= -11
Answer:
Equation Form:
x=7,y=−2
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply each equation by the value that makes the coefficients of x
opposite.
(−1)⋅(2x+5y)=(−1)(4)
2x−2y=18
Simplify.
−2x−5y=−4
2x−2y=18
Add the two equations together to eliminate x
from the system.
(−2x−5y=−4) +(2x−2y=18) = (-7y=14)
Divide each term by −7 and simplify.
y=−2
Substitute the value found for y into one of the original equations, then solve for x.
x=7
The solution to the independent system of equations can be represented as a point. (7,−2)
The result can be shown in multiple forms.
Point Form:
(7,−2)
Equation Form:
x=7,y=−2
