Answer: 2x + 2y = 24

Explanation:

x + y = 12

2(x + y = 12)
2x + 2y = 24

So therefore, 2x + 2y = 24

Answer:

2x + 2y = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to isolate <em>y</em> and then use substitution.

x + y = 12       and         y = x - 1        

-x       -x          

y = -x + 12       and         y = x - 1

-x + 12 = x - 1

+x          +x

--------------------

12 = 2x - 1

+1          +1

----------------

13 = 2x

2x = 13              [ divide both sides by 2]

x = 6.5

Now, you have to plug <em>x</em> (6.5) into <em>y = x - 1</em>.

y = x - 1

y = 6.5 - 1

y = 5.5

Finally, plug both <em>x</em> (6.5) and <em>y</em> (5.5) into <em>2x + 2y</em>.

2x + 2y

= 2 (6.5) + 2 (5.5)

= 13 + 11

= 24

Just substitute the value of x from equation 2 in equation 1, 
6y = x - 12
6y = 22 - 12
y= 10/6
y = 5/3

In short, Your Answer would be Option Option B) (22, 5/3)

Hope this helps!

The residual plot for a data set is shown.
UNO [17]

The true statement about the residual plot is (a) The regression line is a good model because there is no pattern in the residuals.

<h3>How to interpret the residual plot?</h3>

For a residual plot to be considered a good model, the points on the plot must be at random and they must not follow a specific pattern

From the graph, we can see that the points are scattered

Hence, the true statement about the residual plot is (a)

So we are suppose to Factor each expression, But I’m having trouble with that, Can someone help me?
Gre4nikov [31]
42x can be factored into 7(6x), and 49 is square, meaning it can be factored into 7 squared. I believe the factored expression would be 7(6x + 7) because 7 is the greatest common factor between both numbers.
