The linear combination method is the same as the elimination method. Let's multiply the second equation by -2 so the x terms cancel each other out. When we do that we get a system of

and

. The x-terms cancel each other out giving us

and y = -3. Now sub -3 into one of the equations to solve for x. x+2(-3)=-4, and x - 6 = -4. x = 2. So the solution for our system is (2, -3)
Answer:
8 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
286 divided by 13 is 22
so she's making 22 dollars an hour
22 times x = 176
x = 8
she would need to work 8 hours
Answer:
$53.30
Step-by-step explanation:
61.43-21.75=39.68 is the cell phone bill in July.
39.68+13.62= 53.30 is the phone bill in June.
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
These are similar triangles, so the ratio of their sides is the same for each side.
AB = 8 and BD = 10
So, the ratio is 8:10 or 4:5
Because the triangles are similar....
The ratio of AC:CE is also 4:5
12:15 = 4:5
So, 12 is the answer!
A(n) = -5 + 6(n - 1)a(n)=−5+6(n−1)a, left parenthesis, n, right parenthesis, equals, minus, 5, plus, 6, left parenthesis, n, min

Answer:
The 12th term is 61
Step-by-step explanation:
I will assume that your a(n) = -5 + 6(n - 1) is correct; the rest is redundant (duplicative, unneeded).
To find the 12th term, substitute 12 for n in the above formula:
a(12) = -5 + 6(12 - 1) = -5 + 6(11) = 66 - 5, or 61
The 12th term is 61
