So first, you have to get two of the same variables to cancel out. Let's do this for x. In order for the x's to cancel out, we could multiply the bottom problem by 2.
(2) 3x-6y=24
After multiplying all the numbers by 2, you get the equation 6x-12y=48
The set of equations is now
-6x+2y=12
6x-12y=48
Now you can add them. The x variables cancel out, so you are left with the y variable.
2y+-12y=-10y and 12+48=60
Then you would divide 60 by -10 to get y=-6.
You would plug the answer for y into one of the original equations, lets do the top one. -6x+2y=12 becomes -6x+2(-6)=12
You'd multiply the 2 and -6 to get -12 so the equation is
-6x-12=12
The negative 12 turn positive and you add to both sides to get the -6x alone.
-6x-12=12
+12=12
-6x=24
Then divide 24 by -6
X=4

(-4,-6) is your final answer.

Does the table represent a linear or an exponential function? Explain.
leva [86]

we can use MS excel to plot the given data and check whether the graph's trendline has an  R-squared of 1. The graph does not fit into a line but fits into an exponential function. The trendline's equation is equal to y = 4e^1.3863x where R squared is equal to 1

After finishing the prep work, Gilberta and María start removing wallpaper at the same time. Gilberta removes the paper at a con
Alexxx [7]

Using linear functions, the inequality that represents when Gilberta has more wallpaper left in her room than María has in hers is: t < 5.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

For this problem, we consider:

  • The initial amount as the y-intercept.
  • The rate as the slope.

Hence the amounts Gilberta and Maria have left after t hours are given by:

  • G(t) = 35 - 4.3t.
  • M(t) = 30.5 - 3.4t.

Gilberta has more papers when:

G(t) > M(t).

Hence:

35 - 4.3t > 30.5 - 3.4t

-0.9t < -4.5

Multiplying by -1:

0.9t < 4.5

t < 4.5/0.9

t < 5.

Hence the inequality is:

t < 5.
