The product would expand to
This is a trinomial, and the only way to make it a binomial is to cancel out a coefficient using our variable 
.
So, we can cancel either the linear term or the constant term.
In the first case, we require
In the second case, we require
But must be a non-zero rational number, so this solution is not feasible.
You are given two equations, solve for one variable in one of the equations. Say you solved for x in the second equation. Then, plug in that value of x in the x of the first equation. Solve this (first) equation for y (as it should become apparent) and you'll get a number value. Plug in this numerical value of y into the y of the second equation. Solve for x in the second equation. And there you have it: (x, y)
Answer:
y = -2/3 + 18
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 3y = 18 ----- here is the equation...
-2x - 2x ----- bring the 2x to the other side
3y = -2x + 18 ----- now you have to divide everything by 3 to get y by itself
y = -2/3 + 18 ----- Done!
When you multiply two integers, or in fact any two numbers, you are finding the product of those two numbers;
So finding the product is done through multiplication.
If there are 27 students in the class and they have to form as many groups of 4 as possible, you can calculate this using the following step:
27 / 4 = 6.75 = 6 3/4
Result: 27 students can form 6 groups of 4 students and 3 students have to form their own group.
