Answer:
a = 16
b = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
a + 2b = 4
2a + b = 26
2a + 4b = 8
2a + b = 26
3b = -18
b = -6
a + 2(-6) = 4
a - 12 = 4
a = 16
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The only one of these possible answers that could be correct is the fourth one:
The product of a constant factor 5 and a 2-term factor x + 2. That '5' in front of (x+2) multiplies (x+2), and so the result is a product.
-5x+13y=-7
5x+4y=24
add the equation to eliminate x:
13y+4y=-7+24
17y=17
solve for y:
17/17y=17/17
y=1
then plug in y into any equation to solve for x:
-5x+13y=-7, y=1
-5x+(13*1)=-7
-5x+13-13=-7-13
-5x=-20
-5/-5x=-20/-5
x=4
the answers are x=4, y=1
