Answer:
No solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.
Answer:
Does the correct answer necessarily HAVE to be one of those three options? Because I'm looking at the steps and there seems to no mistakes at all. Forgive me if I'm mistaken though!
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluate (2 a + b)^2/(3 b - 1) where a = -2 and b = 5:
(2 a + b)^2/(3 b - 1) = (5 - 2×2)^2/(3×5 - 1)
3×5 = 15:
(5 - 2×2)^2/(15 - 1)
| 1 | 5
- | | 1
| 1 | 4:
(5 - 2×2)^2/14
2 (-2) = -4:
(-4 + 5)^2/14
5 - 4 = 1:
1^2/14
1^2 = 1:
Answer: 1/14
