Answer:
x=-1 y= -5
Step-by-step explanation:
y = – x – 6
y = x – 4
Substitute into y = -x-6 into the second equation
y =x-4
-x-6 = x-4
Add x to each side
-x-6+x =x-4+x
-6 =2x-4
Add 4 to each side
-6+4 =2x-4+4
-2 = 2x
Divide by 2
-2/2 =2x/2
-1 = x
Now find y
y =-x-6
y = -(-1) -6
y =1-6
y = -5
-23/16 because
-1/2•8/8= -8/16
+-15/16
a+2 a +1
= ------- / ------------------
a -5 (a - 3)(a - 5)
a+2 (a - 3)(a - 5)
= ------- * ------------------
a -5 a +1
(a+2)(a - 3)
= ----------------
a +1
a NOT equal 5 and -1
The original expression here might be (4x3) + (4x3). This is because the
distributive property simply moves around numbers, but will not change
the value of the equation, as in the question we are looking at here.
