First, let's multiply the first equation by two. This is because we have to eliminate either x or y by subtraction or addition so that means either both of the x's or both of the y's in the two equations have to be equal. Thus multiplying the first equation by 2 will give 12x+8y=4.
Next, subtract equation two from equation one:
We get a third equation, 2x-0= -28
Thus, x=-28/2. x= -14
In the same way, to find y, we need to eliminate the x's in both equations. This can be done by multiplying the first equation by 5 and the second by 3
Thus : 30x+20y=10 and 30x-24y=96
Subtracting the second equation from the first, we have 0+44y=-86
y=-86/44
y = 1.96 or 43/22
Answer:
(2,-9)
Step-by-step explanation:
A reflection around the x-axis implies keeping the x-coordinate as it its (no change in its numerical value), while using the exact opposite of the numerical value of the y coordinate.
In our case then:
X coordinate unaltered = 2 stays as 2
Y coordinate opposite of the original value: 9 changes to "-9"
Therefore the coordinates of point A' are: (2,-9)
Does that say Magic Squares?
2 is the answer I think because there are 12 eggs in each cortain
