<u>Option C is correct </u><u>(y + z = 6) ⋅ −3</u>
What is a linear equation in math?
- A linear equation only has one or two variables.
- No variable in a linear equation is raised to a power greater than 1 or used as the denominator of a fraction.
- When you find pairs of values that make a linear equation true and plot those pairs on a coordinate grid, all of the points lie on the same line.
As per the statement -
A student is trying to solve the system of two equations given below:
Equation P: y + z = 6 ....[1]
Equation Q: 3y + 4z = 1 ....[2]
Multiply the equation [1] by -3 to both sides we have;
-3 .( y + z = 6 ) ⇒ -3y -3z = -18..........(3)
Add equation [2] and [3] to eliminate the y-term;
z = -17
Therefore, the possible step used in eliminating the y-term is, (y + z = 6) ⋅ −3

A student is trying to solve the system of two equations given below: Equation P: y + z = 6 Equation Q: 3y + 4z = 1 Which of these is a possible step used in eliminating the y-term?
(y + z = 6) ⋅ 4
(3y + 4z = 1) ⋅ 4
(y + z = 6) ⋅ −3
(3y + 4z = 1) ⋅ 3
Answer:
6. No. See explanation below.
7. 18 months
8. 16
Step-by-step explanation:
6. To rewrite a sum of two numbers using the distributive property, the two numbers must have a common factor greater than 1.
Let's find the GCF of 85 and 99:
85 = 5 * 17
99 = 3^2 + 11
5, 3, 11, and 17 are prime numbers. 85 and 99 have no prime factors in common. The GCF of 85 and 99 is 1, so the distributive property cannot be used on the sum 85 + 99.
Answer: No because the GCF of 85 and 99 is 1.

We can solve this problem with the lest common multiple. We need to find a number of a month that is a multiple of both 6 and 9.
6 = 2 * 3
9 = 3^2
LCM = 2 * 3^2 = 2 * 9 = 18
Answer: 18 months
We can also answer this problem with a chart. We write the month number and whether they are home or on a trip. Then we look for the first month in which both are on a trip.

First, we find the prime factorizations of 96 an 80.
96 = 2^5 * 3
80 = 2^4 *5
GCF = 2^4 = 16
Answer: 16
F(n) of the sequence is: 2.5
2 x 2.5= 5
5 x 2.5= 12.5

Answer:
The answer is 9/64. Also #djgirlpower
Step-by-step explanation:
9/64 is the equivalent of 3/8 • 3/8, which is the probability of the dj picking a reggae song once, and then again. That is most likely the case, except if the song that is played is removed from the collection of not-yet-played songs. Otherwise, I’m pretty sure if that’s the case, it would be 3/8 •2/7. Hope this helped :)
