If you have at least as many equations as your have unknown variables, the 'system' is solvable (unless the equations are copies of eachother).
In this case, isolate one letter and plug it in the other. I'm going for the 2a in the bottom one (it doesn't matter)
2a - 4b = 12 => (divide by two and move the b's to the other side)
a = 6 + 2b. (plug this one into the top equation)
4(6+2b) + 6b = 10 => 24+8b+6b = 10 => 24 + 14b = 10 => 14b = -14 => b=-1
a = 6 + -2 = 4.
So a=4 and b=-1.
Answer:
x=14.02
Step-by-step explanation:
Use b=
to solve for the missing side in the triangle. You will get a rounded answer of 8.49. Then you multiply that by 2 and subtract that value from 31. Then that will be your answer.
r is the x coordinate and s is the y coordinate. Positive slopes go from lower left to upper right, like going up stairs or up a hill. The line that goes through (r, s) that is positive is line B.
Answer:
A. -0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
non of the other answers will work because they are positive.
