Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x^3 - 2x^2 - 4x-2
Let x = -2
-2 (-2)^3 - 2 (-2)^2 -4(-2) -2
Exponents first
-2 (-8) -2 (4) -4(-2) -2
Then multiply
16 -8 +8 -2
Then add and subtract
14
Answer:
if you're talking about slope intercept then
y= 8/5x + 11/5
We can employ a simple repeated decimal trick:
###
Alternatively, we can compute the partial sum of the series.
As 
, the second term vanishes and we're left with 
. Notice that this is really just a more formal version of the earlier trick.
Before we do any solving, we need to simplify both sides.
On the left, we can simplify -2x + 3x - 5 to x - 5.
On the right, we can simplify 6 - 21 to -16.
So we have x - 5 = -16.
Solving from here, we add 5 to both sides to get x = -11.
Answer:
x=6 y=-9
Step-by-step explanation:
- Layer the equations on each other as you would in a subtraction problem:
8x + 2y=30
7x + 2y=24
- Subtract the equation just like you would normally. This should leave 1x=6 or x=6.
- Now that you have your x value, plug it in as x for one of the equations. For the 2nd equation, this leaves:
42+2y=24 then
2y=-18 then
y=-9
- Double check your y value by plugging x=6 into the first equation. This should also leave y=-9.
