We want to use a matrix to solve
-8x - 8y = -16
6x - 9y = -108
Before solving, simplify the equations as follows:
Divide the first equation by -8 to obtain
x + y = 2 (1)
Divide the second equation by 3 to obtain
2x - 3y = -36 (2)
In matrix form, the equations are

The determinant of the matrix is
D = (1)(-3) - (1)(2) = -5
Use Cramer's Rule.

Answer: (-6, 8) or x = -6, y = 8
5
because distance formula gets you square root of 25 which is 5
Answer:
y=2^x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
"- 5" demonstrates a verical shift 5 units down
Answer:
(x+3)( 3x^2 +5)
Step-by-step explanation:
3x^3+9x^2+5x+15
Split into two groups
3x^3+9x^2 +5x+15
Factor 3x^2 out of the first group and 5 out of the second group
3x^2 ( x+3) + 5(x+3)
Factor out x+3
(x+3)( 3x^2 +5)
