Answer:

(- 6, - 16 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

- 4x + y = 8 → (1)

2x - y = 4 → (2)

Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the term in y

- 2x = 12 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

x = - 6

Substitute x = - 6 into either of the 2 equations and soilve for y

Substituting x = - 6 into (2)

2(- 6) - y = 4

- 12 - y = 4 ( add 12 to both sides )

- y = 16 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

y = - 16

Solution is (- 6, - 16 )

A graph of the equation shows the appropriate choice to be
  C. 2

_____
If you would rather, you can look at the value of the discriminant. For the equation y = ax²+bx+c, the discriminant (d) is
  d = b²-4ac
For your equation, this evaluates to
  d = (-8)²-4(2)(5) = 64 -40 = 24
When the discriminant is positive, the function has two real roots (2 x-intercepts). When it is zero, there is only one x-intercept, and when it is negative, there are none (the roots are complex).

Answer:

wrong as his calculation was incorrect at initial level itself when he found the result of the division

Step-by-step explanation:

Andre said

3 ÷ \frac{2}{3}

=3 \times \frac{3}{2}

=\frac{3 \times 3}{2}

=\frac{9}{2}

but andre calculated it as

=4\tfrac{1}{3}

=\frac{4 \times 3 + 1}{3}

=\frac{13}{3}

Hence his calculation was incorrect at initial level itself

60$. These are my equations :
600 * 0.2 = 120 ; 600 - 120 = 480
Then...
600 * 0.1 = 60 ; 600 - 60 = 540
Which then became....
540 - 480 = 60
