Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

To use the elimination method, we need the variable we want to eliminate to have the same coefficient number in both equations, but with the opposite sign. Thus, when adding the equations that variable will be eliminated.

The variable x in the first equation is the following:

x

and the x in the second equation is:

3x

So we must multiply the first equation by -3, so it becomes:

-3y = -3x + 8

and we can see that now, the x's in both equation have the same coefficient number but a different sign (one positive and one negative) which is what we need to apply the elimination method.

-3 as in the first equation x = 1x so multiply it by -3 you’ll get -3x.

Slope= 1/2
Y intercept= (0,2)

Explanation:
Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b
-2x+4y=8
-8-2x=-4y
Divide by -4
2+1/2x=y

Y=1/2x+2

Which expressions below are equivalent to
Yuri [45]

Answer:

<h2>A, B, D, E</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

2(2x + 1) = (2)(2x) + (2)(1) = 4x + 2 → A

<em>used distributive property</em>

2(2x + 1) = 2(1 + 2x) → B

<em>used commutative property</em>

2(2x + 1) = (2x + 1) + (2x + 1) = 2x + 1 + 2x + 1 → D

<em>used 2a = a + a</em>

2(2x + 1) = 4x + 2 = x + x + x + x + 1 + 1 → E

<em>used 4x = x + x + x + x and 2 = 1 + 1</em>
