If you would like to solve the system of equations 3y + 2z = 12 and y - z = 9, you can do this using the following steps:

<span>3y + 2z = 12
y - z = 9 ... y = 9 + z
</span>___________
<span>3y + 2z = 12
</span>3 * (9 + z) + 2z = 12
27 + 3z + 2z = 12
5z = 12 - 27
5z = -15
z = -15/5
z = -3

<span>y = 9 + z = 9 - 3 = 6
</span>
The correct result would be <span>c. y = 6, z = –3.</span>

There exists a linear function f(x) such that f(6) = 8, f(2)=20, and f(a) = 16. What is the value of 2a?
atroni [7]

Answer:

a = 10/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We write the linear function as follows:

f(x) = mx + b   where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

f(6) = 6m + b = 8

f(2) = 2m + b = 20    Subtracting these 2 equations:

4m = -12

m = -3.

and  -3 * 2 + b = 20 so:

b =   20 + 6 = 26.

So we have the linear function:

f(x) = -3 x + 26

f(a) = 16 = -3 a + 26

-3 a = 16-26

a = -10 * -3 =  10/3.
