Subtraction property of equality
Alenkasestr [34]3 years ago
5 0
In this case, we subtracted 7 from both sides since the (+7) disappeared from the first side, and the 15 decreased to 8 (15-8=7).
So it's the subtraction property of equality.

Answer:

x = -5, and y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that we have two equations:

A = B

and

C = D

combining the equations means that we will do:

First we multiply both whole equations by constants:

k*(A = B) ---> k*A = k*B

j*(C = D) ----> j*C = j*D

And then we "add" them:

k*A + j*C = k*B + j*D

Now we have the equations:

-x  - y = 11

4*x - 5*y = 10

We want to add them in a given form that one of the variables cancels, so we can solve it for the other variable.

Then we can take the first equation:

-x  - y = 11

and multiply both sides by 4.

4*(-x - y = 11)

Then we get:

4*(-x - y) = 4*11

-4*x - 4*y = 44

Now we have the two equations:

-4*x - 4*y = 44

4*x - 5*y = 10

(here we can think that we multiplied the second equation by 1, then we have k = 4, and j = 1)

If we add them, we get:

(-4*x - 4*y) + (4*x - 5*y) = 10 + 44

-4*x - 4*y + 4*x - 5*y = 54

-9*y = 54

So we combined the equations and now ended with an equation that is really easy to solve for y.

y = 54/-9 = -6

Now that we know the value of y, we can simply replace it in one of the two equations to get the value of x.

-x - y = 11

-x - (-6) = 11

-x + 6 = 11

-x = 11 -6 = 5

-x = 5

x = -5

Then:

x = -5, and y = -6

Solve Q=3a+5ac for a
lilavasa [31]
Here is how you solve... 

Q= 3a+5ac 

take out the common variable.
Q= a(3+5c)

get A by its self so divide each side by (3+5c).
Q/a(3+5c)= a(3+5c)/(3+5c)

Q/a(3+5c)=A

So your answer is A= Q/a(3+5c)

hope that helped.

Kathy is a repair technician for a phone company. Each week, she receives a batch of phones that need repairs. The number of pho
Semenov [28]

Answer:

What 108 represents here is that the total number of phones she has to fix each week is 108 phones

Step-by-step explanation:

The linear equation is

P = 108-23d

compare this with the general form;

y = mx + c

we have;

P = -23d + 108

We can see that 108 represents the y-intercept in this case

The x-value at the y-intercept is 0

So what this mean is that the number of phones she has to fix each week is 108
