Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by combing the terms on the right. 3b - 8 = 3b - 2 because 7b - 4b is going to equal 3b
You are now officially stuck. The moment you try and put the 3b's on the same side of the equation, they will cancel out. There is no unique solution.
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
Statistically... this is just a permutation of 4
-2m - 5m - 8 = 3 + (-7) + m
-7m - 8 = 3 - 7 + m
-7m - 8 = m - 4 <=== here is one
m - 4 = -7m - 8 <=== another one
-8 - 7m = -4 + m <== and another one
11. y = -23x - 21
You can get this by starting with y = mx + b (slope intercept form). Then put in all the knowns and solve for the b.
2 = -23(-1) + b
2 = 23 + b
-21 = b
Then add that to the end of the equation with m = -23
12. -5
The y-intercept of an equation is always the number added on at the end of an equation. It is also the number with no x attached to it.
13. 8x^9y^6
When you use the law of exponents, you need to make sure the exponent goes to each individual term. When we cube the 2, it becomes 8. When you cube x^3, you get x^3*x^3*x^3 or x^9. And with y^2 you get y^6
Note that f(1) = 6(1)+2 = 8. Next, evaluate g(x) at x=8: g(f(1)) = g(8) = 2(8) + 4/5, or 16 4/5.
